Talk So Real with Matt Sonzala: Jeff Liles - Season 2 Episode 19

Maaaan hold up! This week I got to sit down with a man who has been a friend and a mentor to me for like 30 years, Jeff Liles. This man has stories and I think just about anyone would enjoy listening to this one. I first met Jeff when he was a member of the group Decadent Dub Team, an experimental, electronic, hip-hop group from Dallas. The man has literally done it all and has always looked out for me in my journey through the music world. I was like 19 years old maybe 20 when we met and soon after noticed that he was thanked on the back of the NWA and the Posse record. I was floored for real. Like how the hell did that happen? Dude from Dallas thanked on the back of one of my favorite records of all time??? Well listen and find out just how that happened. The stories on this one are amazing.

His musical knowledge and experience is unmatched, Jeff is a truly unique individual who has always stayed true to himself and his mission and the music. We got to talk at the Kessler Theater (where I also did Episode 1 with Money Waters) about the history of Deep Ellum, NWA, his time in Los Angeles, Decadent Dub Team, his solo project Cottonmouth, TX, The Buck Pets, The Axiom, tripping balls at a Grateful Dead concert as a teenager, man we just went in. As always thank you for checking out Talk So Real with Matt Sonzala and tell a friend to tell a friend to tune in on all platforms!
