The latest episode of Yacht Rock, the near-perfect Channel 101 series, was put online a few hours ago, and it’s a classic. It’s the tale of how the rapper Warren G used the smooth sounds of yacht rock to climb the charts in the mid-‘90s—and of how this reappropriation helped a gray-haired Michael McDonald win a dollar bet with his old friend Kenny Loggins. Go check out episode 7—and if you’ve missed some or all of the other episodes, you can watch them here. I wrote about the debut episode of Yacht Rock in this post last July.
