Curtis Mayfield – Little Child Runnin’ Wild

Oh beautiful brother, for real Curtis you was a genius b and today I want to show tribute. Curtis by far is one of my favorite artists of all time, his music speaks to me in a way that is not only tangible but surreal. I’m not going to get into the psychosis of the [...]

Sorry this is a little late but I have a month worth of footage that im trying to run through. Family First Entertainment had a show on September 17th @ Tammany Hall in Worcester Ma. They had a line up of  performers that definitely did Worcester hip hop proud. I was actually reminded of the [...]

The Moody Blues – Nights in White Satin

I’m really in that kind of mood today so here is a dutch/backwoods classic I had to introduce.

Curtis Mayfield – Right On For The Darkness

Dead Presidents may be the first reminder for some of this song but not for me. My father was big on music and would at times lock himself away with a j (blunt) playing classics.
