It's been a long time. I shouldn't have left you. But then again, I feel like I've said that before. Hopefully, this will be the last time I abandon you for an extended period of time without any funky news to keep you satiated.
At any rate, I've come bearing good news. A super dope musician/ singer/ songwriter by the name of <a href="https://twitter.com/WhoisSteffReed">Steff Reed</a> has just collaborated on a tune with NYC wordsmith <a href="https://twitter.com/CITYHAZE">City Haze</a> called "Say Goodbye." The song is primed for release on Tuesday, August, 21st. But to give you a taste of what they cooked up in the studio, here's a teaser video of the recording process of the song. If you look real close...you might even see me lurking around. City Haze's album is coming soon as is <a href="http://www.whoissteffreed.com/">Steff Reed's</a> debut EP. Stay tuned and spread the word.

<br />
<br />Nearly a decade in the making, the album is a fine-tuned double disc collection of 30 dynamic songs. “I did that because we’re living in a mixtape world,” says the New York City native. “You can have any number of songs on a mixtape.” The album finds Willoughby bravely defining her newly minted signature sound: millennium soul. “I call it millennium soul because it encompasses all people, places, and things,” she explains. “It starts off with gospel, goes into jazz, R&B, fused with hip-hop. Everything is tasteful.” Check out the lead single "Mistakes," featuring 15-year-old New Jersey native Lara Begg:

I'm not sure of the cause, but it seems like major label artists were less inspired to produce groundbreaking, sonically pleasing art. There were a few gems in the ocean, but mostly plundered treasures and sunken ships. That probably explains my increasing propensity towards unearthing forgotten treasures from decades past. Looking at the my iPhone, more than 60% of the music on it was created before 2000. <br /><br />2010 also saw me delving further into the beat scene. There's such a wealth of refreshing talent hidden right under the noses of the general public. The beat scene seems to be one of the few sub genres of music that has managed to not only skillfully sustain a balance of ingenuity and innovation but also a strong sense of promise, self containment, and integrity. These factors alone are usually the breeding grounds for the "next big thing." Check the pop culture resume. Hopefully the integrity will remain intact should that scene ever be tossed into the mainstream where the only rule is sink or swim. <br /><br />So in a time where big name mags (online & digital) and blogs tailor their year end lists to the "influence" of their sponsors, I present to you my list of what floated MY boat last year.

Whether I actually like the art or not is irrelevant. The fact that the some Black folk have the gumption to buck trend and push the envelope always inspires my higher self and gives hope for the future generations. Black artists have always been in a purgatory state, smacked from the right with the pressure to perpetuate the mainstream stereotypes and sucker punched from the left to "stay in your lane" and "get money." Black folks are a diverse and dynamic people. To be beholden to a monolithic consciousness and aesthetic is ludicrous. We express ourselves in a myriad of ways. None of them any less "Black" than the other.<br /><br />Which brings me to <span style="font-weight:bold;"><a href="http://www.myspace.com/gusheesound">GuSHee</a></span>. When I first heard about the early sketchings of this duo last year, my ears involuntarily perked up. Comprised of the otherworldly beatsmith and <span style="font-weight:bold;">Red Bull Music Academy</span> alumni <span style="font-weight:bold;"><a href="http://www.myspace.com/vjsmith">Pursuit Grooves</a></span> and Toronto-based soundscape artist <span style="font-weight:bold;"><a href="http://www.myspace.com/professorfingers">Pro-EF</a></span>, GuSHee is definitely on some other ship! And even though they're a dope musical collaboration, that's only one aspect of it. They're also making inroads into the curatorial world. From the Western hemisphere and beyond. Their understanding and manipulation of electronic music production is unparalleled. So all you museums, art galleries, and festivals, GET AT EM!!! Check their music on the link above. And remember...GuSHee <span style="font-style:italic;">is</span> the future.<br /><br /><span style="font-weight:bold;">Contact: gusheefly@gmail.com</span>Superbizzeehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13304504883058158865noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1364073900228912704.post-86109988916241119032010-10-21T18:21:00.006-04:002010-10-21T18:52:54.215-04:00We The People: The Citizens of NYCHA in Pictures + Words (a photojournalism project)<iframe src="http://player.vimeo.com/video/16052605" width="400" height="300" frameborder="0"></iframe><p><a href="http://vimeo.com/16052605">We The People: The Citizens of NYCHA in Pictures + Words (trailer)</a> from <a href="http://vimeo.com/user1548664">Rico a.k.a.

After a year of hard work, I give you <span style="font-style:italic;">We The People: The Citizens of NYCHA in Pictures + Words</span>! An unprecedented photojournalism project!! I don't think I've worked on anything in my life! Photographer <span style="font-weight:bold;"><a href="http://www.shinogawa.com/">Shino Yanagawa</a></span> and myself have been working diligently over the past year putting the nuts and bolts of this project together. The goal of the project was to investigate the myths and stigmas often applied to housing projects and the residents who live in them. Especially the Black and Latino population. And from the 50 + people we interviewed, we discovered some very interesting things. it brings us great joy and pleasure to finally cut the ribbon on such a breathtaking collection of photographs and interviews. Our goal is to exhibit this project as many times as the universe will allow, including internationally. <br /><br />We've already been selected to exhibit the project at the <span style="font-weight:bold;"><a href="http://www.fesman2009.com/">Fesman 2010</a></span> festival of world Black arts being held in Senegal this December. In addition, one of the photographs from the exhibition has been selected to be a part of <span style="font-weight:bold;">Danny Simmons</span> & <span style="font-weight:bold;">Brian Tate's</span> <span style="font-weight:bold;"><a href="http://www.curatenyc.org/">Curate NYC</a></span> exhibition project running October 21st through October 31st in New York City. We're also looking at expanding on the exhibition aspect of the project with a prospective book project. Yeah. Pretty ambitious. But hey, Putting this together has definitely been a labor of love, but it needs your support. In order for us to actualize this exhibition and the trip to Senegal, we're relying on the generous contributions of compassionate individuals, philanthropic organizations, foundations, and corporations. So do me a favor, if you will.

In recent years, they've been very liberal in their pursuit of the erotica genre. Let's see...there was the <span style="font-style:italic;">Big Penis Book</span>, the <span style="font-style:italic;">Big Butt Book</span>, the <span style="font-style:italic;">Big Book of Legs</span>, oh...and the <span style="font-style:italic;">Big Book of Breasts</span>. And that's just to name a few. Well, what can you say? Those Germans sure do know how to be controversial and artsy at the same time! Being that they're the new kids on the block (established in 1980), they have a lot less to loose in the archaic sense of rigid legacy. <br /><br />At any rate...on Wednesday, September 29th from 7-9PM, they're having a book signing/ discussion event at their SoHo location for the book <a href="http://www.taschen.com/pages/en/catalogue/art/all/05719/facts.trespass_a_history_of_uncommissioned_urban_art.htm"><span style="font-style:italic;">Trespass: A History of Uncommissioned Urban Art</span></a>. <br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiVCY399UvKVybvIVzqf7tLnlIVccGl7TOzIaV41a8HCAj-cV3KY55fi8Prk2bjtSD9nWy1uuN4WuM9VtZB2SKiF5aOdYfqXdAGDbn84lgCxnhl1RBxPzxFu6AeXJhLLuy9sb-9CizQuGO9/s1600/trespass-history-uncommissioned-urban-art.jpg"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 266px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiVCY399UvKVybvIVzqf7tLnlIVccGl7TOzIaV41a8HCAj-cV3KY55fi8Prk2bjtSD9nWy1uuN4WuM9VtZB2SKiF5aOdYfqXdAGDbn84lgCxnhl1RBxPzxFu6AeXJhLLuy9sb-9CizQuGO9/s400/trespass-history-uncommissioned-urban-art.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5519772316954952818" /></a><br /><br />The title should clue you in on the subject matter. They go beyond the pedestrian definition of street art in the major metropolises of the world. Sure, by the nature of the subject it's investigating means it will feature examples of works by the proverbial <span style="font-weight:bold;">Banksy</span> and <span style="font-weight:bold;">Shepard Fairey</span>. But hey...as "mainstream" as they are, you can't take away from the fact that they're pioneers. Still, the book is worth a gander. <br /><br />Anyway, the book signing and discussion should be interesting. The book's author Carlo McCormick (<span style="font-weight:bold;">Paper Magazine</span>) and editor Ethel Seno will be there along with some of the featured artists. <span style="font-weight:bold;">Wooster Collective's</span> Marc & Sarah Schiller had a prominent hand in the creation of the book, so I'm sure they'll be there. Being that Shepard Fairey has been in and around NYC lately, I'm putting my chips on him showing up. <br /><br />The only catch is I'm sure the event will get slammed with folks from all ends of the five boroughs trying their damnedest to stuff themselves into Taschen's aesthetically intriguing, yet small space. So it's best to RSVP.

Here's another corporate sponsored attempt to beat a subculture in the head with a brand name. Usually, I'm appalled at such blatant displays of f*ckery. But in certain instances, it can be a perfect fit. This is one such instance. <span style="font-weight:bold;">Nixon's</span> watches are ill. Hands down. I'm <span style="font-style:italic;">still</span> lusting for their woodgrain Rotolog model. Timepieces have never looked so sweet in these modern times. <br /><br />This Friday, Nixon, in tandem with <span style="font-weight:bold;">Mountain Dew</span> and <span style="font-weight:bold;">Vice Magazine</span>, are putting on an art show to snuff out all other art shows. The second annual one night only Art Mosh is a art exhibition featuring photography, film, visual art, and live music performances by the likes of <span style="font-weight:bold;">Ninjasonik</span> and <span style="font-weight:bold;">2 Mandy DJs</span>. I'm looking foward to checking out this concept in person to see how the space functions with the event. RSVP at the URL on the flyer above.

Nah. Scratch that. I'm a Jneiro Jarel groupie. I go hard, homie. Seriously. I think his sound is dope as all hell. So suffice it to say that I'm a little disappointed that this dude's output isn't nearly as prolific as I'd like it to be. He's right behind <span style="font-weight:bold;">Flying Lotus</span> and <span style="font-weight:bold;">Madlib</span> on my list of the coldest beat junkies of the first stretch of the 21st century. Various alter egos and side projects withstanding, his solo catalog could use a little creatine. But I know Fauna will whet the appetites of those like me who have been anxiously awaiting his formal return.<br /><br />Now <span style="font-weight:bold;">Kindred Spirits</span> is on the cusp of releasing the first official follow up to Jneiro Jarel's 2005 gem <span style="font-style:italic;">Three Piece Puzzle</span>. <span style="font-style:italic;">Fauna</span> is a 12-track journey through Jneiro's splendiferous and long-standing Brazil fetish. <br /><br />Not only that, but a little birdie told me that Kindred Spirits is selling the album in two different packages: <br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhA6sWlcQEaCu9OwCVkOyZZ8WOYX2aVH9lsLh3S5ir2LmcTadzQ5rfz2WvfwjkyrmZimga7Hi9aXqoucWPIdk5lzfjsq02WYXozOuRI8wK4GLtD_4oU-p9EWHzQIBNI1TqLmCUIPSStNJnS/s1600/record.jpg"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 200px; height: 200px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhA6sWlcQEaCu9OwCVkOyZZ8WOYX2aVH9lsLh3S5ir2LmcTadzQ5rfz2WvfwjkyrmZimga7Hi9aXqoucWPIdk5lzfjsq02WYXozOuRI8wK4GLtD_4oU-p9EWHzQIBNI1TqLmCUIPSStNJnS/s400/record.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5517354977944064098" /></a><br /><a href="http://www.kindred-spirits.nl/shop_detail.php?idxItem=56360">1.

Anyway, I'm amped about this new record. Anyone who enjoys this man's work should definitely go out and cop. The indie scene needs our support the most. <br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhQQj2ZWOxnPSqsL9aYDGeQdN2lkjJQEVIq3ttp7bjRTbYfO3wXZ3Rw2bvuE7GjAXksTWPaWg6y8JMEUy9lFDCyV__Zgac7hmlGspnqmu4KYOwkNr-_1ZvKsZ7_pL5M8EK1yf0yP3Wbhl2C/s1600/jneiro_7inch.jpg"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 265px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhQQj2ZWOxnPSqsL9aYDGeQdN2lkjJQEVIq3ttp7bjRTbYfO3wXZ3Rw2bvuE7GjAXksTWPaWg6y8JMEUy9lFDCyV__Zgac7hmlGspnqmu4KYOwkNr-_1ZvKsZ7_pL5M8EK1yf0yP3Wbhl2C/s400/jneiro_7inch.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5517354565838696130" /></a>Superbizzeehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13304504883058158865noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1364073900228912704.post-52579268874831005742010-09-13T18:38:00.006-04:002010-09-13T18:57:54.424-04:00Puma's Downtown Upright Bicycle Ride: Saturday, September 18th (NYC)!!!<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEigxZgDLeErVg4Q2TEO9xaKeOwuREUfsr0xn2wgViKBhPUiEUvgPRJ6jdnL4Rdf0LfGo-TDCFeIu2_fYCGIS4TVEJrhIWz87IQ09HJo_G4UHL6e37YmGFRFMREaBhHSgHDO8unN2aMlX2tb/s1600/DUB_RIDE_RSVP.jpg"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 309px; height: 400px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEigxZgDLeErVg4Q2TEO9xaKeOwuREUfsr0xn2wgViKBhPUiEUvgPRJ6jdnL4Rdf0LfGo-TDCFeIu2_fYCGIS4TVEJrhIWz87IQ09HJo_G4UHL6e37YmGFRFMREaBhHSgHDO8unN2aMlX2tb/s400/DUB_RIDE_RSVP.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5516531598649722978" /></a><br /><br /><span style="font-weight:bold;">Puma</span> is cool. In conjunction with <span style="font-weight:bold;">Hudson Urban Bicycles</span>, they're sponsoring the first annual Downtown Upright Bicycle Ride this Saturday, September 18th! Beginning at 4PM, push you pedals in downtown Manhattan with other cyclists from across the 5 boroughs. <br /><br />The past few years have been landmark for cyclists in the NYC area. According to legend, we've got more bicycle lanes than any other city in this country. In 2008, <span style="font-weight:bold;">Mayor Bloomberg</span> set a new goal to stretch our current stock to 1,800 miles within a 20 year span. That's...cool! Since I'm an avid cyclist in the spring and summer months, this is great for me. Hopefully he'll also pass legislation to fix all the sinkholes on the bike path along the FDR. <br /><br />Yet and still, the past three years have been pretty good for us. In that time frame, to the delight of many cyclists, new and extended bike lanes have been popping up all over the city. Boomberg even gave the Department of Transportation the green light to sanction the <a href="http://www.nyc.gov/html/dot/summerstreets/html/home/home.shtml"><span style="font-weight:bold;">Summer Streets</span></a> program. And with the introduction of <a href="http://nymag.com/news/features/56794/index1.html"><span style="font-weight:bold;">pedestrian plazas</span></a> in Times Square, E. 23rd Street, and other spots in the city, I'm guessing - in the words of Howard Jones - things can only get better. <br /><br />Come out and ride with me this Saturday. Should be fun. BTW...there's a <span style="font-weight:bold;">free barbecue afterwards for the first 125 cyclists to RSVP!!!</span>Superbizzeehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13304504883058158865noreply@blogger.com0
