You all know how I feel about the ‘group’ rap song where it feels like everyone is trying to one up each other. I’ve been wearing my ‘movie star’ uniform a lot more lately so this one has been on my mind… [Intro/Chorus 4X: sample of M.I.A.’s “Paper Planes”]“No one on the corner has […]
Don’t really need to do much of an intro for this one do I? All I’ll say is, no matter what day of the week it is, my weekend ALWAYS starts at around the 2:50 mark of this extended version. Have a good weekend!
I’m scapegoating Stevie Wonder for most of this, but now that my attention is back on finishing the Lady rewrite, and more importantly since I’m on a relatively tight deadline, I picked three movie star names out of the list of ‘actresses you guys suggested I should write parts for’, and I’m using those ladies as […]
I know I’m not the only one who considers this one of the favorite scene/sequences in black cinema. And as a guy who gravitates toward silliness in romance as much as I do in life, I also know I’m not the only one who sees myself in the ‘shirt open to the navel, posted […]

Might as well remind you what my number one choice for a cover that topped a Beatles original, in my opinion: What would you think if sang out of tune, Would you stand up and walk out on me ? Lend me your ears and I’ll sing you a song And I’ll try not […]
Hearing this reminded me of how fortunate I feel to have seen Stevie play the Bowl a couple years ago. Wasn’t on my bucket list at the time but when the opportunity presents itself… Anyway, I’m somewhat notoriously known for believing relationships have to run their natural course. Everyone is not meant to be […]
A little mutual appreciation love today for someone who’s thrown some shine my way. One of the great black love songs of my younger days. Needless to say, Shorty in the Malcolm X cap was right in my wheelhouse in my younger days…
Things are moving in the right direction. Everyone I’ve talked to so far about Angel wants to help and likes what I’m trying to do, which of course motivates me and makes me happy. It’s so many moving parts to make it come out the way I want it to come out. I’m the Captain on […]
It. Is. The Weekend. Yeah, yeah, YEAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH! [Intro – Lil’ Jon] Usher… Lil’ Jon… Ludacris… [Usher (with Lil’ Jon)] Yeah, man Once again, it’s on (It’s on) You know we had to do it again, right? [Lil’ Jon] We had to do it again, boy Want you to sing to these ladies, man [Usher […]
