The Lesson and Arlene’s Grocery

Thursdays at Arlene’s Grocery were once famous around the globe. The Lesson attracted world-class talent from Kimbra to Robert Glasper, becoming a paragon of inclusivity across musicians in NYC.

The Lesson not only brought a community of musicians to life like no other session in the city, but also created a magnetic environment for a legion of dedicated fans. Hosted by The Lesson mainstay J. Hoard, this episode will delve into how The Lesson and Arlene’s Grocery helped grow a community of live hip-hop musicians into a culture of its own.
