The improbable encounter between jazz legends and stars from the rap music scene
L’improbable rencontre des légendes jazz & des stars du rap
S.MOS
Musicast
Hip Hop and Jazz Mixed Up
Pianiste jazz de formation, turntablist, compagnon de route de Birdy Nam Nam et beatmaker fécond, S.Mos se révèle l’auteur d’un audacieux cross-over historique, relevant le défi d’organiser la rencontre impossible entre les géants du jazz et les stars du rap ! Une prouesse qui mène Eminem à croiser la légende Duke Ellington ou le flow de Mos Def s’inviter au banquet hard bop d’Horace Silver. Une gageure relevée avec un indéniable talent tant la fièvre hip hop des 90’s semble, sous les doigts de S.Mos, avoir été conçue pour se lover naturellement dans les standards jazz des années 50 et 60. Telle la passerelle évidente entre deux genres majeurs des black-musics.
S.Mos began his career by training as a jazz pianist, then went on to become a turntablist and skilled beatmaker, accompanying Birdy Nam Nam on his musical journeys. He is the author of a daring historical cross-over : the impossible encounter between jazz giants and rap stars ! The result is a feat which sees Eminem meet Duke Ellington and Mos Def join Horace Silver's hard bop musical banquet. What seemed to be an impossible task is in fact the most natural combination when achieved by S.Mos : as if the 90's hip hop fever only happened so it could curl up against 50's and 60's jazz. Two major black-music genres meet as if they were always meant to be together.
