All Funked Up

"Sandman" is about becoming aware of one's other-ness. Life was easier as a kid, at least prior to 9/11. In the days, months, and years that followed it became clear that despite being born and raised in the US, I didn't belong. Sandman plays off of the juxtaposition between childish innocence and the darkness that surrounds maturing in a post-9/11 world. The single and upcoming video documenting the studio process (and shenanigans involved) are distributed through Six Degrees Records.

:: LYRICS ::

It don't feel like it used to,
Maybe I’m overthinking,
Chained to the rearview,
Ancient and old my coffee skin

I’m holding on to something in the mirror
Afraid of losing out on the years

I don’t wanna get older
Take me back to those good old fashion days
I don’t wanna get older
I just wanna be somebody’s baby

I don’t wanna get older
Take me back to those good old fashion days
I don’t wanna get older
I just wanna be somebody’s baby

Wait up, then cut me loose
Ooh you got me feeling like a little lower
Bottom of the Peking order
Someone send the police over
Check it out and send me away

Appearing like a Sandman in the snow
My soul has lasted time yet I’m the ghost

I don’t wanna get older
Take me back to those good old fashion days
I don’t wanna get older
I just wanna be somebody’s baby

I don’t wanna get older
Take me back to those good old fashion days
I don’t wanna get older
I just wanna be somebody’s baby

Lyrics:
My body’s burning up
It’s hot in here
And all this groovin’ is removin’ all my fears
My vision’s blurring up
Can’t see too clear
And now this PYT is whispering in my ear

All my friends think I should go home
And I don’t know what I did with my phone
Should have left that last one alone
And I know

But I’m on a good one
And I might do something wild tonight
Yeah I’m on a good one
And I’m feeling alright

I’m out here on the floor
They’re playing my song
It feels so right I don’t know how it could be wrong
I can’t take any more
It’s way too strong
I’m at my limit
I’ve been spending all night long

All my friends think I should go home
And I don’t know what I did with my phone
Should have left that last one alone
And I know

But I’m on a good one
And I might do something wild tonight
Yeah I’m on a good one
And I’m feeling alright

Good one tonight
Living my life
Good one tonight
Living my life
Living the good life

Welcome to the official Tuxedo Channel. Tuxedo is Grammy nominated renaissance man Mayer Hawthorne (Aquarius) and Grammy nominated producer Jake One (Taurus). They mysteriously showed up on Internet doorsteps in 2013. In between Mayer's solo albums, and Jake's productions for Drake, The Weeknd, J. Cole, etc., Tuxedo released their debut album and quickly became a world of its own.

On a Good One

Bogu Ma Dem

Bogu Ma Dem (feat. Massamba Diop)

Bassel & The Supernaturals combines neo-soul and funk with captivating lyrics about love, loss, and a war in Syria that has directly affected Bassel Almadani’s family along with 10,000,000 others. With over 125 shows under their belt since the release of Dreamer EP (2013), the soulful Syrian-American front man Bassel Almadani and his 9-piece ensemble are releasing their first full-length album, Elements, on February 24th, 2017.

"Bassel Al-Madani doesn't want audiences to just have a good time getting down at shows. He wants fans to leave Bassel & the Supernaturals shows with a sense of connection and, perhaps, new political awareness. The bandleader of the contemplative indie-funk ensemble is first-generation Syrian-American and has been using the band's shows and releases to benefit humanitarian efforts in war-torn Syria."
