We interviewed up-and-coming hip-hop producer emjaysoul on the show today. At just 21 years old, his golden ear extends beyond his years. Melding soulful samples and turning them into precious metals, he’s one to watch.

His new collaboration album, Kenny And Friends, is a thumping showcase of Western Sydney talent. Featuring Sollyy, Zion Garcia, Station Hayds, and around 40 other collaborators, it’s a feat in community and talent.

This episode was produced and edited by Nick Hibbs. Out of the Box is recorded at the fbi station in Redfern, which is on unceded Gadigal Land. We pay our respects to Gadigal elders past and present and recognise the ongoing colonial violence committed across this country. Wherever you’re tuning in from in so-called Sydney, the land always was, always will be, Aboriginal land.
