New Music Tuesday was built with intention from the very first record. Jon Batiste opened the show with blues rooted soul, setting a warm and expressive tone that carried into Nao Yoshioka’s deep Philly soul influence from Japan. That soulful foundation continued through Momoko Gill, Safa with Tall Black Guy, Otis Kane, and a smooth run of modern R and B voices that felt both timeless and current.

The energy shifted naturally as the set moved into alternative textures and left field moments. Rico Nasty injected raw edge and attitude, while Artemas and Ice Spice kept things moving with sharp modern flair. From there the first hour closed strong with global rhythms, leaning into dancehall, Afrobeats, and Amapiano energy with Khaid, Don Edward, and a groove driven finish that kept the momentum high.

Hour two went straight into the Hip Hop lane. DJ Premier and Nas set the tone, reminding listeners what craftsmanship sounds like, before the playlist expanded into a wide range of Hip Hop voices. Coast Contra brought lyrical power, Deante’ Hitchcock and Samara Cyn added reflection, and Conway the Machine stood tall throughout the set, reinforcing why his latest work remains essential listening.

This episode was about range, respect for the roots, and forward motion. From soul to global sounds to hard hitting Hip Hop, this New Music Tuesday delivered balance, depth, and that unmistakable Diesal energy from start to finish.
