True Talent

Sometimes people just have a talent that is undeniable. One of my favorite new singers in the game is Jasmine Sullivan, and this footage of her playing Dorothy in "The Wiz" at age 11 shows & proves the concept of being "born to do this". The trill at 2:49 gives me goosebumps. No lie.

MOOD MUSIC

Who needs lyrics when you can evoke this kind of emotion with melody alone? Honestly one of the most beautiful themes ever recorded for a film. Believe me when I say that this piece will long outlive the film that it was written for, as "classic" as it might be considered.

Bonus Info: Taylormade & I produced a song that sampled this years ago. I wrote the lyrics as a dedication to my girl at the time...who later became my wife. Thanks, Mr. Evans. I thought I'd share the original after all these years.



PERFECTION.

Der Humpink!

Congratulations to Christoph Walz, who won the Best Supporting Actor trophy last week at the Oscars. He was great in Inglorious Basterds...but he kills it with this one.

S.W.B.

The following experiment was a bit over the top, but it does illustrate some of the daily problems Black people in America still face. With all this talk of a "post-racial" United States, it should still come as no surprise that we are still being subjected to prejudices and humiliation by those who choose to remain ignorant of other cultures. This may make you mad or even shock you, but it needs to be seen.
