Synopsis
The foundation of Mr. Sonny James' DJ career is hip-hop, soul, funk, and jazz. In this weekly radio show, Sonny and co-host Fatnice dig deeper for some of the feel good music that help set the tone for who they are today. Soul as a concept is not outdated and the traditional hip-hop culture these two Philadelphia ambassadors represent is NOT disposable. Get on board and take the weekly ride with us Across The Tracks and you'll be looking for more.
