Another day, another round up of records that I played through. I’m having a terrible month, and even though the holiday season should be full of joy and not about anything else, it’s really crappy. I’ve had to deal with a lot of financial troubles, to the point where everything is on hold. At the same time, I’m trying to hire writers to give me more time to work, and I’m trying to establish all sorts of new things to work on for next year. I want it to be the most productive year in terms of writing yet, and at the same time, I’m trying to register for my next set of classes for college. As long as I am enrolled, I can chip away at that coveted master’s degree. They can’t take it away once I get it, so it’s what I am aiming for right now. The following records are a mixed bag, mostly from the 2000s, and do not represent everything I listened to. I took time to listen to a mix tape from an up and coming rapper, listened to the albums reviewed recently, ended the day on a fast note ...

Goldfinger “Open Your Eyes” Review

February 05, 2024

Goldfinger, a name synonymous with the late 90s and early 2000s punk rock surge, delivered an album that resonates through time for its raw energy and candid socio-political commentary. "Open Your Eyes," released in 2002, stands as a testament to the band's evolution and their commitment to blending infectious punk rock melodies with thought-provoking lyrics. It's an album that not only makes you want to jump around in the mosh pit but also compels you to reflect on the world around you. "Open Your Eyes" marks a significant pivot in Goldfinger's musical journey, integrating their punk rock roots with a polished, more mature sound. The album unfurls a tapestry of energetic guitar riffs, compelling drum beats, and John Feldmann’s distinctive vocals, creating a sound that's both familiar and refreshingly innovative. It's an album that bridges the gap between the rebellious spirit of punk and the conscious awareness of global issues, resonating wit...

Jason Mark Yates Mixes Folk With Pop Sensibilities In Beautiful Compositions

February 18, 2014

Jason Mark yates is a singer and songwriter that does both things in a very eclectic way. He does so through the union of poetry and music, unlike what you would expect. Mixing elements from the 1980s and fusing emotional connections through lyricism and steady melody, Yates introduces the listener to a cycle of different moments that truly are captivating. When you listen to some of his songs, you truly get different layers of sound, and style, mixed into his vocal style and musical steps. This is most evident in his UK Songwriting Contest Finalist song, “Reachin Out” which blends the power of David Bowie and adds U2 flavor to a steadier and heart felt song that is neither one of the two but rather something altogether unique. It’s this incredible attention to both sound and lyrical design that compels me and every other music fan to listen to music in the first place. On other tracks like, “The Answer is You”, and “Curse The Moon” represent a much more soft side, and differentiat...

Murs 316 SOS Posse Cut Music Video Brings Together A New Family

December 10, 2013

Mid City legend, Murs, has once again blew me away. He first blew me away in Definitive Jux when he appeared in a John Cena...no scratch that. I was impressed in the "Bad Man" video when John Cena showed up and threw Murs in a trash can after doing 16 bars on the track for the music video. Then again, I'm wrong, that was the "HUSTLE" music video. See, even I'm wrong a lot. Murs has gone through a lot of different business ventures, and put out on of the best records last year "Murs x Fashawn: This Generation" and once again impresses me as a blogger, business man and fan with the latest news. He is going to start a record label called Murs 316. Murs 316 is a project that will not have long term contracts, it will be a stepping stone for young rappers and hip hop musicians to rise up and get a shot at collaboration, working with, and dealing with projects alongside MURS. To introduce the world with what is going on, he has gone forward and made...
