John Morrison’s Culture Corner with host Raina Douris

But in the wings, Atlanta was gearing up to become a rap powerhouse, and one of the acts fundamental to Atlanta’s rise was Arrested Development. On the next World Cafe, join Culture Corner correspondent John Morrison for a dive-deep into Atlanta’s sound in the ‘90s and Arrested Development’s album 3 Years, 5 Months and 2 Days in the Life Of…, which turns 30 this year.
