Episode 106: Speakerboxxx, The Love Below, and a Fat Bastard

In this episode, Wolf of Wine brings his creative journey full circle with the final wine and hip-hop pairing from his Fat Bastard Wines collaboration: Fat Bastard Chardonnay paired with OutKast’s Speakerboxxx/The Love Below.

After weeks of tastings, storytelling, and creative blocks—including the ongoing struggle not to default to an Ol’ Dirty Bastard track—Jermaine shares how this pairing came together through inspiration, music, and deep appreciation for both wine and culture.

Listeners will get a behind-the-scenes look at how the bold, expressive Chardonnay from France’s Languedoc region mirrors the duality and innovation of the OutKast album. From the wine’s ripe fruit and smooth texture to the album’s genre-bending brilliance, this episode dives into how the worlds of wine and hip-hop reflect and elevate each other.

• A breakdown of the Fat Bastard Chardonnay and its regional roots
