Jason “JJ Boogie” Reichert is a multi-instrumentalist, producer, mix engineer, and longtime member of the Grammy-winning hip-hop collective Arrested Development — making him one of the most influential creators in conscious hip-hop and alternative rap. In this episode, we dive deep into JJ Boogie’s musical evolution, his creative process, and his global touring legacy as a guitarist, drummer, co-writer, co-producer, mixer, masterer, and front-of-house engineer.JJ first met Speech Thomas in 1998, joining the group just before the release of their third album, and he’s been shaping the sound of socially conscious hip-hop ever since. As a winner of the 2018 Black Music Awards and a core part of Arrested Development’s world tours and studio catalog, JJ brings decades of artistry, innovation, and lived experience to this conversation.We also explore his life beyond the stage — from his 20-year musical partnership with his wife, Nanyana Summer (yes… Dolly Parton’s distant cousin!), to their countless gigs across the Southeast, to the pride he carries as a father of two who celebrate his work every step of the way.This is a rich, soulful, behind-the-scenes look at an artist whose fingerprints have shaped generations of listeners.👉 If this conversation inspires you, make sure to subscribe to the podcast and stay connected to everything Kelly at:https://solo.to/kellycardenas
