Sleepy Brown Lecture (Atlanta 2016) | Red Bull Music Academy

[Deltron]

Organized Noize’s Sleepy Brown had a successful career behind the scenes of some of Atlanta hip-hop’s finest moments throughout the ’90s. But as the decade came to a close, he knew that he wanted more. The result was the funk throwback The Vinyl Room. Out of step with the times, it was passed over by his major label and nearly forgotten. In 2016, RBMA provided Sleepy with a platform to revisit the album, both in conversation and in concert. In this interview with Christina Lee as part of RBMA Radio Live in Atlanta, Sleepy spoke about the album and its genesis one night before he performed it live in the city for the first time in more than a decade.

Dude was an underrated artist, imo, I always liked his music and thought he should have been bigger.

DF is Probably the greatest example of Atlanta when the creative filter is turned up high.
