Episode 102: Wine and Hip Hop at The Philbrook Featuring Eric Asimov

Author: Wine and Hip Hop May 22, 2024 Duration: 1:08:25
This week, we’re giving you a front-row seat to the Keynote Conversation at the 2024 Philbrook Art Museum Wine Experience in Tulsa, Oklahoma, between your host Jermaine Stone and esteemed New York Times wine critic Eric Asimov. This conversation was especially iconic because it fell on the one-year anniversary of the profile Eric wrote about Jermaine for The NY Times. From the release of his first network show, the Emmy and James Beard award-nominated series Street Somm, to breaking barriers in wine and wine tasting heard around the world at Clos de Vougeot, which featured hip hop played for the first time within the 1000-year-old castle walls, Jermaine has been quite busy. His conversation with Eric covers it all while giving an in-depth journey through the road that got him there. Special thanks to the entire team at The Philbrook museum of art for graciously sharing this content with us!!

In each episode of Wine And Hip Hop, host Jermaine Stone-an Emmy and James Beard Award-nominated personality-curates a unique conversation that lives at the intersection of culture and taste. This podcast brings together hip-hop artists and wine professionals for a dialogue that is as fluid and surprising as a great freestyle. The format is elegantly simple yet rich with discovery: a guest brings a meaningful song or a chosen bottle of wine to the table, and Jermaine selects the perfect counterpart. What unfolds is an organic, informative, and deeply entertaining discussion about the connections between a beat and a Bordeaux, a lyric and a vintage. The conversation explores personal stories, the craftsmanship behind both art forms, and the sensory experiences they evoke. It’s not about rigid rules or pretentious pairings, but about the shared passion and creativity that fuel hip-hop and winemaking. Listeners are invited into a space where expertise meets personal narrative, revealing how a track can change the taste of a wine and how a wine can deepen the feeling of a song. This is a podcast for the curious, for those who appreciate the layers in a complex blend or a masterful verse, and for anyone who believes the best moments are often accompanied by the right sound and the right glass.
