Annie and Nick are joined by James Blake to discuss the week in music. He’s a Grammy award winning singer and producer, who’s worked with everyone from Kendrick Lamar to Beyoncé and last year, he walked away from his record deal to become an independent artist. After last week’s depressing look into the state of British music, does James have some solutions?

Elsewhere, inspired by Chrissie Hynde sharing her thoughts on what’s cool and uncool, James thinks we should call time on making fun of Coldplay. They also pay tribute to neo soul icon Angie Stone, share their thoughts on Sir Elton John’s duet with Chappell Roan and James recounts the time he met Stevie Wonder.
