Music legend David Crosby passed away last month after a long illness. He was 81. Crosby's work paved the way for the folk rock movement. He was a founding member of The Byrds, and performed at Woodstock as a member of Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young. Crosby was also an award winning solo musician in his own right, and he's been inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame twice. We're remembering David Crosby by revisiting our 2016 interview with the late music icon.Learn more about sponsor message choices: podcastchoices.com/adchoicesNPR Privacy Policy

Folge vom 03.02.2023Rapper Mavi on his new album "Laughing So Hard It Hurts"Hailing from Charlotte, NC, young rapper Mavi is one to watch.

And last year, he recorded a stirring third album, "Laughing So Hard It Hurts." Mavi crams 16 songs into 32 minutes on "Laughing So Hard It Hurts." It's an album about pain and relationships.
