I’m still pretty high from the vibe my city can give me creatively so this is my choice to take you into the weekend. Removed from the finality that ‘This Is It’ just naturally had attached to it, this is by far my favorite MJ song and video that came out after his death. […]
My friends, I’m so high right now. No, not the physical high of a great workout, or the spiritual high of love, but the artistic high of seeing and hearing so many of the things I loved and am inspired by in one place. If you come here at all, you know my music […]
Your faithful narrator is going through a lot of mixed emotions right now: joy and elation, frustration, accomplishment, sadness, determination. Not at liberty to go into details until next month, so be patient as I imagine the posts/song choices will be even more all over the place than normal depending on how I’m feeling […]
Thanks to everyone who tuned into my Nickelodeon debut last night; it was a fun experience. Time to reboot… Certainly not the first or last time I’ll post my single favorite song ever. I love this particular performance for a lot of reasons though. A microphone, a spotlight, and a stadium under his complete […]
Ah. I was all hyped to talk about this one when I knew it would be today’s song (I wrote my first ‘action fight sequence’ to this), but now I just feel melancholy. Hopefully it has the opposite effect on you going into the weekend. Enjoy!
I know your boy Justin Timberlake is hosting SNL this week and he’s got a hot record again so he’s in a nice spot to make another step up the ‘legend’ ladder. Justin is one of those handful of guys my hypercompetitive ass always keeps an eye on. Not that I could have (or […]
So what do you get when my personal favorite filmmaker (Spike Lee) does a documentary about my personal favorite artist of all time (Michael Jackson)? You get BAD25, an absolute must see for all die hard MJ fans, and a well spent 2 hours for those of you who were fans of Mike at […]
Halftime. Michael. Michael was the first icon of my generation. He loved entertaining, and we loved watching him and listening to him and imitating him. Along the way, he learned/understood the value of being enigmatic. It’s a very ‘Hollywood’ thing to do; the myth/mystery of who you are behind closed doors becomes part of your […]
I’ve spent quite a bit of time the past few weeks profusely thanking the people around me. Calling friends, hanging out, sending cards: doing right by those who have done right by me. Nothing extraordinarily good or bad has happened to me (yet), but the desire to be grateful has hit me. Depending on […]
The crazy thing about this one is, with the long weekend, I was feeling lazy this afternoon, and almost didn’t go. But it was Saturday night, I guess that makes it right, I said ‘What have I got to lose?’ (You see what I did there right? OK, OK, I’ll get to the review…) […]
