His birthday just passed, but Malcolm has been on my mind a lot heading into this Ramadan. Not Spike’s dramatization of his life. Not even Malcolm’s own dramatization, as expressed in the Autobiography. I’m referring to the thorough breakdown provided in Manning Marable’s great book. After he was gone, Malcolm’s legacy continues to grow internationally […]
Stepping up a decade from yesterday to bring you into the 80s and one of the most iconic music videos of all time. Last song for awhile so tried not to be too esoteric today. Enjoy!
Never a bad day to go straight soul. Debatably more iconic than the title song of the soundtrack it came off of. Enjoy!
Spotify continued its candidacy for ‘Favorite Addition to My Routine’ in the past couple years when it threw this one at me this morning. Was having flashbacks to Pizza Shuttle Sprites, Perkins after the set, and days swiftly passed. Specific references to a specific moment in the Life. Enjoy!
The weekend! Sun is out, mood is good. Today we give in to lust. Have a good one gang!
Got into a conversation about songwriting today and went down a rabbit hole of well constructed lyrics. Which leads to today’s choice. The melody doesn’t hurt either. Enjoy!
Never had any desire to go to Coachella… But now feel like I need to scalp my way into the next Hans Zimmer show… Enjoy (cause you know I am…)
Made it to another weekend! This one isn’t in the rotation all the time anymore, but every time I hear it, as soon as the beat hits, I’m like ‘Yep, this is a first ballot Hall of Famer.’ Take care of each other. Another movie review Sunday night. Peace!
Ran into an 80s playlist today, so you’re getting one of the most famous guitar riffs of all time for today’s song choice. Sounds a little silly to say now, but also an innovative video at the time. Enjoy!
Excited to hear Steve McQueen behind a 2Pac documentary. The producers behind it have made some of the better music documentaries in recent years. Not sure how much new information there is about Pac at this point, but I guess we’ll see. That’s the segway to today’s song choice. Enjoy!
