Now that we have your attention, check this week’s New York Times Music Popcast with Jeremy Egner which features a 15 minute interview with journalist Rob Kenner who just wrote a feature on Vybz Kartel that will run in this Sunday’s New York Times in the Arts & Leisure section. Stay tuned for that article, but in the meantime check the interview to hear an in depth discussion on Vybz Kartel and his new album on Mixpak. The interview includes a sneak peek (sneak listen?) to two brand new cuts from Kingston Story. World exclusive! Did you pre-order your copy of the album yet?
