KICK·BACK

/ˈkikˌbak/

A group of friends getting together to engage in party activities such as drinking etc., without the hassle and drawbacks of a big party.

This week we kicked it with Chasity Cooper - A wine enthusiast and freelance journalist for publications like Essence and VinePair, just to name a few. In this episode, we discussed female MC’s, cancel culture, the legacy of Jermaine Dupri, and wild times as a wine journalist. We crack a bottle of Ampeleia Unlitro Rosso Toscano 2018 and learn about what motivated her to launch #WineWithChas, a weekly blog dedicated to wine stories that speak to those who want to learn about wine in a fun, non-intimidating way.

WINE:

AMPELEIA UNLITRO ROSSO TOSCANO 2018

HIP HOP:

XSCAPE - JUST KICKIN IT


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.
