On each episode of ONE SONG, friends Diallo Riddle (Emmy-nominated star and creator of HBO Max’s 'South Side' and IFC’s 'Sherman’s Showcase') and Blake "LUXXURY" Robin (Music Producer & TikTok creator) will hilariously break down ONE SONG from the pop music canon that you know - or need to know - but have never heard quite like this.

One Song

Hey One Song Nation! We're bringing you a special episode pulled from Diallo & LUXXURY's new Patreon. In this episode, the guys talk about Coachella, break down the viral KEXP performance from Angine De Poitrine and react to some new music by Earl Sweatshirt.

Introducing "Diallo & LUXXURY Talk About Music" on Patreon

We’re taking you back to one of our very first episodes, talking mosquitos and libidos. That’s right, Diallo and LUXXURY are off on a sonic adventure with Nirvana’s 1991 grunge rock juggernaut, Smells Like Teen Spirit. Hear why Diallo thinks it’s one of the most important songs in pop culture, and strap in for some rarely heard Kurt Cobain vocal stems. There’s also a lot of talk about blap-um-blap-um drum patterns.

We're revisiting one of our favorite episodes of One Song this week featuring award-winning journalist, author, and podcaster Danyel Smith (Shine Bright: A Very Personal History of Black Women in Pop). Danyel joins Diallo and LUXXURY to break down Chaka Khan’s “I’m Every Woman,” the 1978 disco crossover hit that launched her incredibly successful solo career. They discuss Chaka’s powerful, dynamic vocal range (just wait until you hear the isolated stems!), how the song became an anthem for female empowerment (among many other things), and Chaka’s professional and personal connections with Whitney Houston, who famously covered the song 15 years later for The Bodyguard soundtrack.

Pepper’s can truly be considered a concept album.
