But once he get's loose on the turntables with his self-titled Jazztronica style all aprehensions about his name fall away. With a deft scratch flick here and a perfectly timed beat drop there, Chicken George pulls you into his vibed out voyage along a path paved with hip-hop, soul, funk, broken beat and more. Taking time out of his busy touring and promotion schedule, Chicken George stopped through the Rope a Dope Podcast Network and dropped this amazing set of eclectic and soulful cuts.
