Dart Adams: The erasure of Black Boston, Al Horford, J. Dilla, Quarantine Music Business

Boston representative, historian and prolific music writer Dart Adams joins Dome Theory for a wide-ranging discussion, starting with the erasure of Black Boston. Why do so many Black figures start here then move on? Why is the city seen for its white foreign faces rather than the Black and Latino people who fill its streets? Plus, who's the Al Horford of hip-hop? J. Dilla and Slum Village's big anniversary. Then, where's music headed after quarantine?
