Louisiana’s Cajun Nation is likely one of the most original areas of the US. It is formally referred to as Acadiana, after the French-speaking Acadians who settled there after being exiled from Canada by the British within the 18th century.

Our month-to-month collection, Acadiana Music Showcase, is produced by our buddies at Lafayette, La., affiliate station KRVS, and it explores this vibrant cultural melting pot by way of music.

As we speak, we’re placing the highlight on Good Prblms. This hip-hop collective (G-Reg, Jinaki, Maudixi and Rick Valentino) consists of scholars and alumni from the College of Louisiana, Lafayette. They met by way of the varsity’s personal music label, RAGIN’ Information. In the previous couple of years, Good Prblms have made inroads within the metropolis’s zydeco-heavy scene, taking part in reveals domestically and regionally, and even opening for Tank and the Bangas in New Orleans.
