This episode, Frankie talks with three-time GRAMMY®-nominated multiplatinum R&B icon KEM. They talk about the Detroit native celebrating his 20-year anniversary being signed to Motown Records, how much his life has changed after becoming married with children, and his decisions behind finally recording a live album from his extensive catalog.
Most recently, KEM released his magnetically introspective EP, entitled Full Circle, with the lead single ‘Stuck On You.’ The EP’s second single, ‘Right On Time,’ featuring hip-hop heavyweight, Rick Ross, reveals KEM at the height of his power as one of music’s redefining voices, as his signature vocals flutter from sultry verses into a soaring hook.
Known for her authentic, credible and trusting voice, veteran award-winning broadcast journalist Frankie Darcell is known for elevating every platform she graces. With a rich background in radio, Frankie’s responsibilities in music and radio include iHeartMedia and the iHeartMedia Radio Network. Frankie can be heard in 22 markets including Miami, New Orleans, Chicago, Memphis, and Norfolk Virginia.
Headquartered in Detroit, RTM is the parent company to five of the country's most respected Black-owned local news organizations, the Atlanta Daily World, Atlanta Tribune: The Magazine, the Chicago Defender, the Michigan Chronicle, and the New Pittsburgh Courier, which enables it to maintain the heartbeat of the Black experience.
