Son of Raw is the weekly radio show of SF-based DJ/producer Sake One. Son of Raw provides music along the diverse post-hip-hop musical spectrum, focusing on unreleased, exclusive and slept-on musical gems from the soul, hip-hop, jazz, reggae, house and other dance music genres. As one of the world's leading urban music tastemakers, Sake One has traveled the world spinning and collecting music from every genre conceivable; as a club DJ, he doesn't always get to play the diversity and complexity of sounds he is able to present in a radio show format. The show takes its name from a classic Dennis Ferrer house music production, as well as a conceptual standpoint as a descendant of the raw, gritty sampling and versioning innovations of early hip-hop and reggae dancehall productions, and (of course) the seminal hip-hop anthem "Raw" by Big Daddy Kane: the son of a golden era of musical innovation, on the verge of growing into an adult with a sound and mission all its own.
