btw the ARC website has been up for some time here. Please let us know what you think and, especially, if you have any shows or artists we should be looking at. Thanks.

But I had the rare joy of having my expectations exceeded this week when I sat down to interview Chuck D for ARC. If I had to pick one voice from my generation, it would be all Chuck. I’m grateful to have gotten to ask him the questions I had from watching Def Jam get built from my dorm at NYU and then seeing “It Takes A Nation of Millions” become the Sgt Pepper of hip hop. Thanks Chuck, Walter, Lathan and Brother Malik for working with us – we’re honored.

Since I last posted we launched ARC: The A&R Channel, a long-time vision of a new generation of music programming for the digital media age. We’re currently in 15,000,000 homes via Comcast and there will be plenty to say about ARC in the coming months. In the mean time, if you are a Comcast Digital subscriber please go to ON Demand/Music/ARC and check us out. Thanks.
