I was muted this weekend and I thought, ‘My God, I haven’t been to the movies in a month!’ I went to the calendar to double check how long it had been… It was Thanksgiving. Film geek season does that to a man. So how about we start this week with music? It’s definitely been […]
A few weeks back, my Twitter feed went nuts with black film geeks famous and not famous all saying Netflix dropped a series called ‘Pioneers of African-American Cinema’ that is mandatory viewing if you’re a student of the history or the artform or the culture. And they were all right. Streaming on Netflix, twenty episodes […]
Word got to me that Sir Paul is playing Dodger Stadium next year. Against all realistic and biological odds, it looks like the stars will align for me to scratch ‘see a Beatle in concert’ off my bucket list. Besides being one of my favorite songs he wrote, this particular arrangement is incredibly beautiful. Enjoy.
OK, yesterday was a day. Let’s find something to get back to being a little bit more relaxed. Silly even. Maybe seasonal. Perfect. This is perfect. Enjoy!
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.
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 […]
