The Michael Jackson Round-Up

When artists die, the 'Net goes into a tizzy. When Michael Jackson passed away last week, shit went CRAZY! I was away from a PC for the majority of the weekend, and my inbox has been flooded with all kinds of videos, MP3s and other content regarding the passing of the King Of Pop. Here's a cornucopia of tributes and other bits that I've gotten. I haven't listened to most of them, but figured they needed to get out...

Offshore Drilling CMJ Watch!

The Colorado Rap Report has, um, reported that Offshore Drilling (which is currently at 47,800 downloads on FrostWire alone) cracked the top 20 of the CMJ Hip-Hop Chart, placing at #19! If you remember, OD was in the mid-30s last week, so this is a crazy jump!

Lots of love and thanks to all the artists involved, the heads who posted, and those who are just discovering the project. Trust, we're in the lab cookin' up stuff for the next go-round...

EDIT Here's the issue placing Offshore Drilling at #19.

EDIT The Colorado Rap Report posted that OD is now at #17. When I see the CMJ article with it, I'll update. I also hear that WRRC 107.7 in Lawrenceville, NJ (aka Rider University) has a show that charted this. I live a stone's throw away from that college. Whomever dropped it there, get at me!

EDIT Here's proof positive of OD hitting #17!

Trends "People Get Ready"

Trends "People Get Ready": I've always been leery of the term "electronica" - I never liked the way it sounded, and the fact that its such a blanket term really put me off. So when I got the e-mail about this track being a Rap/Electronica hybrid, I wasn't too thrilled. Diggin' into it, though, this isn't bad. Taken from Trends' The Electronic Tape, which drops on July 28th, and should be a nice mixture of Hip-Hop over electronic beats. What say you?

[video] Elucid "Automatic Writing"

I've been waiting for this one... finally got to see it the other day. One of my favorite cuts from Elucid, and one of AEON's doper beats. Very twisted imagery, fits the track perfectly. This is what we call the beginning...

EDIT Some words from Elucid:

If I learned one thing from the 'Automatic Writing' video experience it would be that there are only two ingredients necessary to accomplish any goal; vision and determination. Somehow the universe throws you in the path of whatever else required for the rest of your journey. This project was a true labor of love and testament to our resourcefulness. What started as late night random idea tossing via instant message (oracles, drapetomania, solar eclipses?!?) quickly morphed into a 4 page video treatment. Shot intermittently during the early months of 2009, without a penny's investment, Boombaye and I trooped through the streets and subways of New York City in true hip hop/guerrilla style shooting illegally on lo-fi equipment without a proper permit. Five months and a number of sleepless nights later, I'm ecstatic to present this piece to the world. Automatic Writing's message of self reliance and empowerment resounds even more so with the accompanying imagery.

'Close your eyes, it feels different here/ Sign of the times, almost in the clear/
I see spaceships on Flatbush, calling me back home/ Resetting the clock to begin again'

Cuing inspiration from my personal musical trinity of Sun Ra, George Clinton, and Afrika Bambaataa, 'Automatic Writing' serves as a statement to the building of a new world. A future world. A better world. The idea of midnight trains, chariots, and even spaceships carrying oppressed people away from their suffering are common themes in American Black music. As a people robbed of their past, now living in the present as aliens in a foreign land that constantly seeks to disparage their identity, we have no choice but to embrace the future and the promise it brings.

This is the latest episode of the syndicated FuseBox Radio Broadcast with DJ Fusion & Jon Judah for the week of July 1, 2009 with some new and classic Hip-Hop & Soul Music, news and commentary.

Our commentary this week focused on the impact on both popular & Black Culture of the extremely unexpected deaths of music legend Michael Jackson and actress & activist Farrah Fawcett (R.I.P) and what we can learn from them, the utter mess of this year's B.E.T. Awards and some other things here and there.

We had a great interview earlier this week to blast off on the syndicated FuseBox Radio Broadcast with fashion designer and businessman Polo The Fur King (http://www.myspace.com/potterjoh).

Some of the topics we covered included his background growing up in New Jersey, how he got involved in the fashion world and the music industry (as a designer, studio head, etc.), being a quality entrepreneur, how important it is to stay humble and do good works in the community and some other things!

Due to the length of this week's interview and some commentary, we do not have new Black Agenda Report or Direct EFX segments this week.

Feel free to check out some recent episodes of the syndicated FuseBox Radio Broadcast here on BlackRadioIsBack.com - all of the shows are clean/radio friendly.
