Yep.

Fuck, from Dave Brubeck to The Browning to Jaco Pastorious to Strauss to The Disco Biscuits and nearly everything I didn’t list is available too. I never imagined that this would be the future of music when I was a wee lad in the early 80’s.

This is what hip hop and rap should really be about...sick beats, insane flow and rhythm, while at the same time, tackling important issues to improve the society...

When I'm low and out of focus I always come back to this. It's become a mantra - This morning, I woke up Feeling brand new, I jumped up Feeling my highs and my lows In my soul and my goals Just to stop smokin', and stop drinkin' And I've been thinkin, I've got my reasons Just to get by Song is a gift from God.

Tears in my eyes. This is the music I was raised on. Plus Heavy D, and Queen Latifah. So inspirational. Music is so out of balance now. Just found out about his podcast. Definitely a man of wisdom.
