Mats Nileskär, a Swedish journalist, started the programme “Soul Corner” on Swedish National Radio in 1978 to cover “black popular culture”. I was nine years old and remember listening to the show via a portable radio. He opened the door to soul, hip hop and R&B for me. Today the show is called “P3 Soul” and he is still doing the show, at an age of 59 years!
He has interviewed Curtis Mayfield, Isaac Hayes, Aretha Franklin, Steve Wonder, The Roots, Kanye West, Kendrick Lamar, Luther Vandross (the day before he had stroke), Alyiaah (2 weeks before her death), Post Malone, Jay-Z, Beoyncé to name drop a few. In total 6000 (!) interviews!
An interview Mats did with 2Pac is even sampled by Kendrik Lamar on “Mortal Man”.
Mats Nileskär is a legend and his show is a treasure for everyone into soul, funk, hiphop, R&B. The only downside is that the show is in Swedish. He still uses a roll tape recorder for his interviews!

Much respect to him

“Hey! It’s you, you crazy motherfucker!” Mats Nileskär interviewed Jigga in the nineties before the fame. Around 2002, Mats was in New York visiting a record company, Jay-Z, now a mega star, saw him, rushed after Mats and thanked the odd Swede that used an oldfashioned roll tape recorder. “Hey! It’s you…”
Mats Nileskär has many great stories. He is writing on his memoires but doesn’t want to finish it because he is “still in the game” and publishing a memoir means a closure.
