18.the Sweet Vandals - I Got you, Man

In commemoration of our 5th Year Wedding Anniversary, we release a new FREE song titled 'Celebration'.

Celebration

Today in the Classicfied Podcast Show we feel nostalgia, so we are happy to announce a new section: Goldie Of the Week [GOW] !!!

We'll introduce some golden classics that haven't been uploaded to Soundcloud yet.

So here it is the [GOW#1]: The Jimi Entley Sound - Charlie's Theme. Taken from Espionage Disk -- ESP 001 - Limited Edition, 45 RPM (2002)

This record got some popularity since it was sampled in "J Dilla - Geek Down" from the last album that J Dilla released while alive: "Donuts". That album was published on February 7, 2006, his 32nd birthday, and only three days before his death. RIP.

LYRICS
-------------

1v.
So much injustice in this world operable under the sun / exploitation of the insolvent / misuses of guns / development of nuclear warheads a warning to some / large percentage hope's diminished systematically numbed / enchanted or stunned confused bout which direction to run due to vices of evil strategists thrown at us at once / classified like some cattle an expendable bunch / words like empowerment and freedom not intended for us....

Vamp
Cause most who we've elected meant to govern us / abuse positions like it's a prerequisite / to make elitist, heartless, egotistical / decisions that ultimately effect us all...

Chorus
Through cruel eyes an illusion magnified to a mind when it's shallow / will soon realize that within due time all lies unravel / ties that bind any thoughts assigned to the dark like shadows / til it's roots are aligned where TRUTH resides otherwise it's hollow...

Georgia Break
What have we become? / What are we running from? / It’s hard to see this world grow so cold / It’s time we rise / Wisely excersise / your natural right to shine / Open up your mind / Alas, there’s still time to make things right / Make it right

2v.
Political insanity's firmly gripped on humanity casually catching casualties gradually managing to move our condition beyond damaging / experiencing tragedy after tragedy for centuries throughout history / masterfully crafting the quality of LIFE'S vanishing / a travesty / one I'm compelled to speak about candidly how can there be / less accountability for faculty as if this mess they have made will repair itself magically / apparently authority has been charmed by vanity to hold in very high esteem any form of fallacy / disguising itself as anti anything traveling / against a current of what they've made a deranged fantasy...

Chorus x 2
Through cruel eyes an illusion magnified to a mind when it's shallow / will soon realize that within due time all lies unravel / ties that bind any thoughts assigned to the dark like shadows / til it's roots are aligned where TRUTH resides otherwise it's hollow...

Next up in the series is a Chicago Stepper-influenced remix of Jay-Z's "Can't Knock the Hustle." 

I've spent the Summer immersed in vinyl, getting the Miyagi Records project off the ground. And along the way I've discovered or have been put up on, a ton of music! This remix is based on The Stylistics quiet storm killer "Hurry Up This Way Again" which you'll recognize as sampled on Jay-Z's "Politics As Usual." I'd heard the Stylistics song waaay back in the day but didn't put 2 and 2 together. The homie Twelve Gage came through the shop awhile back and reintroduced me to this gem and I had it on repeat for days afterward. It didn't take long for the remix idea to come about. All I really wanted was to make a Stepper out of Jigga and continue my "Reasonable Saturday Night" series somehow. Comes with the instrumental which kinda works on it's own as a Stylistics flip. 

On a more personal note, this remix isn't just a clever mashup of song titles but it's more so what my 2020 mindset has become. Losing all DJ gigs, performance work, and my marketing company due to the pandemic made me reassess what I want from life and how I plan to get there. I have a tendency to move too fast, and this year has been a blessing in disguise. A much needed slow down, in order to get some bigger moves in play. I'm sure everyone has their thoughts about Jay-Z but there's no denying his success, and the scope and longevity of that success. I once heard for "Reasonable Doubt" he used his advance to purchase copies of the record so as to give SoundScan numbers a bump, thus securing a better deal on his next album. Whether that's myth or reality, it's a G move and the perfect example of investing and reinvesting in yourself. 

I hope you're all safe and healthy out there, this ride isn't over yet!
