So, I could have very, very easily been murdered today. I found myself Downtown this afternoon. Not L.A. Live, more the residential neighborhoods. I was wrapping up my affairs as a nearby high school was letting out. One set of boys walking down the street I was on starts shit talking another set of boys […]
My goal this year was to line up the rest of my life, the rest of my long term goals, that’s been done 11 months. I’m in a good spot. A few of you know I’ve been thinking more this year about working again behind the camera; my specific ‘voice’ can be as strong of […]
The extremely rare wet day in the City of Angels, so this is perfect. Have a good weekend everyone.
I’m a sucker for a great use of acoustic guitar, and a sucker for love, and this video covers both. Great song, but more than that, decades later, this man still had it! Enjoy!
Worked away from the camera lately, setting the baseline for my voiceover work. Like being in front of the camera, you try to gravitate toward things you’re naturally passionate about, so for this I went to ‘The Book of Basketball’, the beginnings of black cinema, and luxury cars. Enjoy.
I don’t know if this particular film needed the help, but first off let me say Netflix is getting better at playing to the eyes and ears of the film geek community. I got to see ‘Roma’ at the Directors Guild over Thanksgiving weekend, on the big screen the way I’m sure Alfonso Cuaron (and […]
In no particular order, thank you… Mom, Pops, Sheena, the Fradieus, Darryl, Tara, Brittany, Tawana, Shannon, my ‘Fan Club’, Steve, Lorenzo, Leo, Jermaine, the Asian Delegation and my Age of Learning family, Nathan and Saba, Jay, Tish, Alfred and Amber, Adrian and Aida, Ben, Terrance, Brandon, Akela, Aaron, my Jayhawk family, Larvell and April, the […]
Last song for the week. Have some things to say tomorrow… Still on a Queen high after ‘Bohemian Rhapsody.’ In the Q&A, when Riz was asked what he used to channel Freddie, he said he would often come back to this song, and to think about where Freddie Mercury was at in his life when […]
Short week, so let’s get these jams in quickly… One of the first videos and songs I have a fairly vivid memory of seeing. How vivid? I’m fairly certain I saw used to see this frequently on Video Soul with Donnie Simpson. (Ask your parents kids.) Enjoy!
So here’s my disclaimer: I have more vivid memories of the Simpsons’ ‘Sherry Bobbins’ episode than I do if the original ‘Mary Poppins’. In my mind now, the original film is more certain iconic songs and clips than remembering the plot of the actual movie. So, I doubt the new film will become as iconic […]
