Artist Spotlight: Millie Jackson

Let’s get caught up in all things Millie Jackson on this special debut episode of Rock in Retrospect.  Nick and guest Mary Layton (Hall Watchers)  discuss Jackson's life, career and impact on the music industry. Often hailed as the mother of rap, Jackson’s raspy spoken-word vocals and sexually charged lyrics made her one of R&B’s most consistently popular stars. She may not be a household name, but Jackson is an undeniably talented and supremely influential legend who deserves more of our attention. To quote Mary, let’s hope there is a “Millie Revolution” on the horizon.Support the show
