Blerd Radio Episode 3: The Disappearance of LeBron James . For some reason, WordPress will not led me embed the Blogtalkradio code into my posts. This pisses me off. A lot of you reading are way more computer savvy than I am (quiet as kept…I’m kinda dumb), so if you could lend a blerd a hand and help me figure this out, that would be groovy. Anyway, after a three week absence, I have returned with Blerd Radio Episode 3. My guests for this episode are my buddies +LB […]
Blerd Appreciation: Georgio
You remember Georgio? Of course not. Even if you were listening to R&B or dance music in the late Eighties, this guy was probably the blippiest of blips on your radar screen. Nevertheless, I’m here to give the guy some long-belated props. For what, you might ask? Well, for a brief moment, this dude released some of the pumpin’est dance music of the day. I was way too young to get into clubs at that point, but I was blessed […]
Michael's Dance Party/Janet's Crappy New Song: This Week in Jacksons
Those of you who are in New York (or nearby) and are also fans of Michael Jackson or Prince. It would be in your best interests to attend Soul Slam XV , celebrating the music of the King of Pop and His Royal Badness.

This […]
Prince's "Cause & Effect": Today's Purple Message Is…
…STOP!!! Dear Prince, I love you very much. “Sign o’ the Times”, most days, is one of my three or four favorite albums of all time. “Dirty Mind” and “Purple Rain” are probably in the Top 20. When you first came back in 2004 with “Musicology”, I was overjoyed. I was even more thrilled when you released the excellent “3121”. Then came “Planet Earth”, which was kinda “meh”. But there was the Super Bowl performance! THEN there was the “Lotusflower” […]
Hope I Die Before I…Hey, Wait a Sec…
Super Bowl 44 was exciting enough-at least until Manning got intercepted halfway through the 4th quarter. Although I put money on Indianapolis to win, I’m kinda glad it went to New Orleans. When the best things to come out of your city in the past twenty years are Lil Wayne and Harry Connick Jr., you deserve all that you get. Man, but did you check out that halftime show? Never mind the fact that Queen Latifah’s performance of “America the […]
