Let the Record Show – the crate-dug interview series in which artists discuss their favorite songs of all time as the tracks spin on vinyl – continues its fourth season today with Grammy award-winning producer Cam O’bi. A Las Vegas hometown hero, the rising producer recently won a Grammy for his work on Chance the Rapper’s "Coloring Book" LP, which was awarded Best Rap Album in 2017. O’bi’s discography includes an extensive playlist of tracks from hip-hop’s new generation, working with some of the most celebrated artists in the genre, including Kendrick Lamar, J. Cole, Anderson .Paak, Vic Mensa, Big Sean, SZA, Noname, Mick Jenkins, and Isiah Rashad, among others. Cam’s song selections on Let the Record Show show intricate knowledge and a multi-genre obsession with music, with a crate of tracks that include Michael Jackson classics, J. Dilla bangers, shoegaze rock sleeper hits, and some incredibly unexpected showtunes. O’bi breaks down each song with a cerebral approach, showing a deep understanding of musicality and brilliance behind the boards. Towards the end of the show, O’bi also spills details on his forthcoming album Grown Ass Kid and what to expect from the project. Originally released March 2020
