Send us Fan MailThis week on the Vinally High Podcast, Drew Beats and BJ Buds welcome a special guest to the studio — Carolina’s own Cam Kent (aka Cameron Wade), a producer, artist, and self-described creator of “music for the soul.” The crew drops the needle on D’Angelo’s legendary album Voodoo and dives deep into the sounds, stories, and influence behind one of the most important records in modern soul and R&B. Along the way, Cam shares his musical journey — from singing in church and learning harmony with family members to becoming a producer who blends hip-hop, gospel, soul, and house music into his own unique sound. The conversation flows through everything from crate digging and the art of sampling to the origins of neo-soul, the influence of producers like J Dilla and DJ Quik, and the cultural evolution of hip-hop. Cam also talks about how growing up around music shaped his creativity and how his philosophy of authenticity guides both his artistry and his life.As always, the episode features the Vinally High fan-favorite segment where BJ describes the album cover and the team feeds the description into AI to see what wild image it generates. Listeners are invited to guess the album based only on the description.Plus, the crew highlights Charlotte’s growing underground music scene, shares stories about discovering new artists, and reflects on the power of music to connect people across genres, backgrounds, and generations.Roll one up, drop the needle, and join the conversation as music, culture, creativity, and community collide in another laid-back episode of Vinally High.Follow Vinally High📸 Instagram: @vinallyhighpodcastFollow Our Guest – Cam Kent📸 Instagram: @superman_no_here_Support the show
