Blackky - "Rosie"

Image
These are the times when you just love the internet. And for a music-lover like me this song is a gem! I didn't think I'd ever hear this song again. Used to love it as a kid(does that reveal my age, lol) Didn't know anything about this artist, only that I'd never forgotten about this song since back in the day. Enjoy this throw-back from Nigerian artists Blackky ! Listen: Blackky - "Rosie"

Man of the Year..clearly

Man of the Year...maybe decade! I love how daring and crazy this guy is! Wow...talk of " enemy of the state ." Who is surprised by this though?.If you think the notion of big brother, thought control and imperialism is conspiracy theory stuff, then your naive or in willful ignorance (as I used to be.) Trust me its all real, why do you think this guy is in hiding? Movies don't get more fascinating than this.

Video Hits Package: 1.2.1 Dionne Farris - "Hopeless"

Believe it or not I have not thought much of music's quality since the early-mid 90's. Even as a teenager I thought the quality of music had really gone down, and there was not a lot of creativity/effort being put into its making anymore. That's why when I first heard this song I was really blown away and impressed. Even by the time of its release (1997) I felt music was already getting mad lame, that's why it really stood out to me. It is from the Love Jones movie soundtrack which I haven't watched since that period, ( might check that out again:) Anyway this is probably a top 20 song of the 90's for me. Enjoy! (Two things I never knew until this post; I've always thought Randy Jackson  wrote the song, but Van Hunt wrote it, while Randy plays the bass guitar.  Dionne Farris sung for Arrested Development , I didn't know that! cool) If I was a musician serious about my work I wouldn't strive for a song any less than this.
