Interview: Jason Moran, jazz pianist and composer
"Growing up in the 1980s meant that hip-hop was - everywhere. My older brother listened to him a lot, so I heard the same things he did. However, the first band that really moved me was Run-DMC. But as a collective, Public Enemy was exactly the band that changed me. They talked about political issues within their incredibly condensed music, and it was really powerful and enlightening."
