On this show, I unpackage the music you grew up loving, by artists you were probably obsessed with (and let’s be honest, maybe still are). And the best part? While we’re diving deep into the stories behind the songs, we're also helping out charities. 💖

Today, we honor the life and legacy of one of the most influential figures in American music history: Sam Cooke. His voice was a bridge between gospel, rhythm and blues, pop, and soul—genres that would come to define the music of generations. But Sam Cooke was more than just a singer; he was a trailblazer, an activist, and an inspiration to millions.

Host James Rodriguez is joined by record executive, songwriter, recording artist and producer Steve Lunt as we honor Sam Cooke, who has inspired many artists and generations of listeners .
