The Jumpoff 12.15.09
By Afolabi
What it is people. While were on the topic of haunting music
that you can't get out of your head (thank you Corey!). Here
are a couple that will most definitely percolate around your
cranium for a while. Plus some images that will certainly do
the same. Welcome to The Jumpoff!
A-Side

Where is Lloyd? This song is probably about two years old now, but for whatever reason each time i hear it again it always seems like the first time hearing it. The remix is also just as persistent, but the original "oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh g-g-g-get it shawty" gets me everytime. Get yours. Lloyd - Get it Shawty
B-Side

I dare you to listen to this and not get it stuck in your head. Pick one, the verse, the chorus, the beat; it will stay with you. Whatever your feelings may be about The Dutchess, just remember that the "the girl can't help it." Fergie - Clumsy
That'll do it today. Try to keep your mind positive, regardless of what finds its way into your head. Stay cool. Until next time, be easy.

New Music: John Mayer - Battle Studies
By Afolabi
Mr. Mayer is back with a new album, out today everywhere, and it's called Battle Studies. I won't spend much time talking about him because he's been the subject of a few posts on this site already. I will say though, you should probably watch these videos. All these songs are on the new album. The first is the lead single, Who Says. I personally dig this video cos i feel like i've been there. No, i know i've been there. The second is called Heartbreak Warfare, and it's the first augmented reality music video ever made. The third is a Robert Johnson cover called Crossroads, but the video is a live performance featuring Eric Clapton with the man of the hour, John Mayer. And that's it, go get yourself a copy.

On Point: Jack Penate - Everything is New
By Afolabi
I've been on a bit of a British music tilt lately. Particularly, one 24 year old dude ( i think dude applies) from London. His first album blended energetic riffs with amazing melodies to create songs that touched on issues from the irreverent, to the humorous, to the romantic. He recently released a new album, titled, Everything is New. Which showcases his growth as a musician and songwriter. I was only going to put up a few tracks to give you a feel for his latest album, but i got a little carried away. So here's a little mix of some old and some new songs of his. Sort of like his album title. Ladies and gents, Jack Peñate.

What is rest?
By Afolabi
There are a lot of people talking about Michael Jackson. In
fact, i think everyone in the world is talking about him. But
up until yesterday, many of those people didn't have conciliatory
things to say about the man. But even for the ones who did,
there comes a time when we all have to remember that he was still
only a man. Imperfect. We only see the public persona,
but is that the real man? So please, let's all leave judgment
to a higher authority than ourselves. Which brings me to my
question. What is rest? Everyone keeps saying "RIP MJ",
and please get your grief out. But think about what you're
saying. Two words "REST" and "PEACE". What do they
mean? I'll let the man explain.

On Point: Double Wonderful
By Afolabi
On my last sojourn to the city that never sleeps, i was busy doing what any consciensious visitor to "Rome" would do, not sleep. We traveled far and wide through the expanse of the burg of William, mostly keeping close to the trail of watering holes for hydration purposes. As we progressed back to hq in the early hours, we got waylaid by a celebration of backyard proportions. What happened next was a dance party. In between the melee, i escaped to the confines of the host crib for a relaxation break. It was here that i met, Mr. Gordon Kenny of the sweet-shades-wearing -yacht-rock-appreciating tribe. I fear, though, i can't divulge the origins of his sunglasses awesomeness, you'll just have to track him down yourself. Regardless, Mr. Kenny is part of a crew of like-minded-shade-wearing gents, Matty "Beans" Aidala and Brendan "Brendo" Parker, who produce sights and sounds for your sensory/dancing/laughing/enjoyment enjoyment (that's not a typo). You can catch them @ Midnight, Sundays on Long Island Cablevision Ch.20, or on their Youtube or MySpace. Giving you the bidness two times, here's the inimitable flavor of
