When Mick Jagger sang about sex, drugs and rock and roll, nobody doubted his credibility. When Johnny Cash sang “Walk The Line,” people knew he’d had trouble walkin’ one. And when Emmylou Harris sang about heartbreak, audiences felt her ache. Authentic artists share a gift for communicating truth; truth mined from their own life experiences and expertly spun into three-minute, melodic vignettes (Source: http://www.myspace.com/joeyandrory).
When Bebe Cool sang “Agenze”, a song about his marital troubles when Zuena left him, some artists whose names I hesitate to mention attacked him for putting his “private matters” in music.

Friday February 27, 2009 at Club Dolce in Miami Beach was a very eventful one on all levels. There were shows and parties, dinners and movies. From the fabulously festive to the humble and homely. I got no rest. None...but it was all worth it.
Ky-mani MarleyI saw a lot of 'famous' faces this weekend. I saw a lot of loving fans of 'famous' faces this weekend...and I also saw some 'famous' faces who will never be worth the hype and don't deserve the love or respect their supporters have for them. This is not about the 'artists' who disrespected a supporter because the hype around them is so great... this is not about the 'artists' who have silly notions regarding the press. With no hit...you're done...press/media will ALWAYS have a job. There is always someone else to feature. Careful not to burn the bridge while still standing on it. Handle and the blade...'artists' are a dime a dozen...memba dat!

The Abami's Afterlife.
By: Jennifer Parker
Guest Columnist
Fela Kuti - political activist, musical innovator, symbol of hope for Nigeria, and founder of Afrobeat -- was born into controversy. And though he died in 1997, his music lives on.
The Abami (meaning “strange one” in Yoruba) had awoken from his slumber. Kaleta’s long, anxious wait for Fela Kuti, the creator of Afrobeat, was finally over. As he passed through the beaded curtain leading to Fela’s bedroom, a thick, almost impenetrable fog of marijuana smoke engulfed Kaleta. He had arrived at Fela’s compound late in the morning, but had had to wait many hours for his audition, which finally took place in the early hours of the next day. Several naked women lounged as Fela, also naked, interrogated Kaleta about his background. |
