NPR Music's Tiny Desk series will celebrate Black History Month with Tiny Desk (home) concerts featuring legends in the world of R&B, jazz, gospel, and hip-hop. Each artist in this legacy lineup has helped to define Black music as we know it and will be performing a Tiny Desk concert for the first time.

LaTesha Harris | February 17, 2022
In his Tiny Desk (home) concert, Too $hort asks: "How many artists you know that got relevant records in five decades?" The Oakland rapper answers by performing seven songs from his own discography, showcasing his extensive (yet still underrated) contributions to the growth of hip-hop on the West Coast. The expedition opens on a quiet, reflective note with a performance of $hort's influential 1990 single "The Ghetto" before roaring to life with 1988's "Life Is... Too $hort." From his spot in downtown LA, BoomBox Studios, $hort delivers a dynamic, funk-laden performance, seamlessly cycling through scenes of women-chasing debauchery and politically-minded meditation.

Of course, Too $hort's set list shows off the development of his sound, but it also underscores hip-hop's evolution from a socially polarizing genre to a touchstone of cultural capital. Combined with an enthralling presence of persona, $hort's jaw-dropping lyrics and minimal delivery influenced West Coast peers, like Snoop Dogg and Lil B, and beyond, like Lil Jon and UGK; his career, one of moving cassettes with local independent success to moving multiple platinum albums with national acclaim, established the Bay Area as a credible rapping hotspot, pushing the boundaries of hip-hop. Too $hort honors this history by shouting out his many collaborators over the years and sharing his legacy as a hip-hop titan with a spirited group of musicians – notably Curtis Crump Jr. and Techdizzle who steal the show with, respectively, their sax and drum work on "Gettin' It" and "Blow The Whistle." It's a monumental moment for the Tiny Desk, and for those wondering, there's more than enough of Too $hort's favorite word to celebrate with.

NPR Music is celebrating Black Music Month with an array of brand new Tiny Desk concerts. Together, these artists represent the past, present and future of Black music. This month of carefully curated shows is a celebration of Black artists expressing themselves in ways we've never seen before, and of the Tiny Desk's unique way of showcasing that talent.

Bobby Carter | June 5, 2023
Charlie Wilson's Tiny Desk unexpectedly ran the gamut of emotions. His musical journey boasts some of the highest highs and fanfare for over 50 years. So much so, it's easy to forget what he's endured. His testimonial during a praise break reminded us that he's climbed through valleys about as deep as they get. "I went from rags to riches, riches to rags, then rags to the curb, the curb to homeless," he said. "Because I was an alcoholic and a crack cocaine addict! But I'm 28 years clean and sober!"

Flanked by a host of musicians, Wilson expressed the depth and breadth of his life and career, telling a tale of two Charlies. The Oklahoma native's success with The Gap Band, formed with his brothers Robert and Ronnie, began in the 1970s and stretched throughout the '80s. The group's many hits are classified as old-school funk and R&B, but it's the resurrection and connection with young hip-hop stars that make Charlie's story so compelling to me.

Snoop Dogg was the first to hop on board, coining him "Uncle Charlie" and featuring him on his second LP, Tha Doggfather in 1996. They've been frequent collaborators since, eventually landing the smash, "Beautiful," a few years later. From Kanye West to Tyler, The Creator, Nas, and more recently Don Toliver and Devin Morrison, Wilson has been hip-hop's secret sauce for decades. When I asked Uncle Charlie to explain the reason why he's such a draw in hip-hop, he said so much by simply stating: "I can sang!"

SET LIST
"Charlie, Last Name Wilson"
"Computer Love"
"There Goes My Baby"
"I'm Blessed"
"Yearning For Your Love"
"Sweet Yamz"
"Outstanding"

⁣The Purge_ Election Year (2016)

Atlanta Falcons eye offensive transformation under new coaching staff—can their retooled identity finally break the playoff drought? Host Aaron Freeman spotlights how the Falcons reshaped their offensive roster this offseason with Tua Tagovailoa, Jahan Dotson, Austin Hooper, and Zachariah Branch. This sets the stage for a diversified run scheme, heavy personnel groupings, and a play-action-centric attack.

The episode questions whether the offensive line can withstand stacked boxes, analyzes the shift from outside zone to gap runs with Jawaan Taylor replacing Kaleb McGary, and explores the potential for explosive synergy between Kyle Pitts and Drake London. Key insights include the impact of personnel investments at tight end and wide receiver, play-action efficiency, and how the new scheme may affect Bijan Robinson's usage. Will the Falcons’ run game deliver, or is a top passing attack their real playoff ticket?

Atlanta Falcons face pivotal draft questions after standout performances from top defensive linemen at the NFL Combine. Are rising prospects like Caleb Banks and Lee Hunter about to shake up the team’s draft strategy? Host Aaron Freeman and Jarvis Davis (@LockedOnATL) break down the positional battles, weighing athletic measurables against game tape. With key insights on prospects and the importance of traits like 10-yard split and broad jump, the debate heats up: do the Falcons prioritize raw talent or proven production?

Linebacker uncertainty looms as the future of Kaden Elliss remains unclear and depth concerns persist behind Divine Deablo and Troy Andersen. The hosts dissect Ian Cunningham’s draft philosophy, the need for “cheap labor” at linebacker, and which edge rushers could transform Atlanta’s pass rush. Find out why maximizing draft picks and betting on the right athletes could define the Falcons’ path to NFC South contention.
