Blaine Nash, Sofimix, & Stray Louis of the Blue Lanternz,+ DJ Chirish734 present: LIFE SENTENCE REMIX.

A journey through a tale of perseverance, overcoming the obstacles of physical adversity. The protagonist resides in a mobile jail cell, depicted as a symbol of Spastic CP. Bringing forth the trials and tribulations of finding salvation in one's own skin. A testament to the endurance of the spirit, and the determined will for life. 

[Blaine Nash lyrics]

Verse 1:

Yo, I'm caused in an instant, onset by brain trauma/
Collision course motor cortex to make drama/
Spastic CP, I pave roads to unveiled hell/
The body, serves as a mobile jail cell/
Bones are the foundation that robs independence/
Bars are Hypertonia, carries life in the sentence/
God did the booking, the crime is birth/
On a muscle chain gang, each move tiresome work/
Words fall on deaf ears, the chamber echos/
No visits, through stigmatization, they let go/
20/200 vision, the dwindling hope/
Counting days, light is vacant in the distancing scope/
Sanctioned to these confines, without parole/
Months turn to years, wearing out the soul/
As fatigue sets in, suffering won't last long/
Heart ceases to beat, and way out is to pass on/

Verse 2:

It happened in an instant, had no request for this/
Umbilical strangulation, the arrest was swift/
Dancing with death, narrowly bust her clutches/
Reviving in hell, made her seduction luscious/
Incubation, prepping for incarceration/
Stabilization for the darkness waitin'/
I'm an inmate of ligament restraint/
But what doesn't kill strengthens in imprisonment misplaced/
Daily exercise, therapy for the physical/
To loosen the locks, plus endurance is critical/
The mind is traveled, where bars aren't reachable/
Attributes indicating relief is foreseeable/
Though no release, optimism's opposed to dim/
Educating life lessons keep walls from closin' in/
Despite adversity, my seed was chose to win/
So against all odds, I find a home in skin/

The Pressure (prod. by Lingo)

The Karmasonic Radio Network is back on the air—and now it has a sponsor. In Episode 2, the crew unveils GLOWCLOT™, a plasma-thickening beverage so mysterious it leaks its own slogans. Between trying to record their first real ad spot and navigating a haunted Studio B, the TKRN staff wrestle with paperwork, spilled noodles, and an unsettling phone call from someone who shouldn’t exist.

But this is TKRN—nothing ever stays on script. Listeners are treated to the premiere of the Department of Unlikely Scenarios, a listener-write-in segment gone off the rails (“What if language was a parasite?”), and a sudden astral infomercial about Out-of-Body Vacations. Just when the crew thinks they’re back on schedule, the station is hijacked by a seven-minute signal from The Last Frequency, plunging everyone into dead air and unanswered questions.

Corporate satire, Firesign-style chaos, and supernatural broadcast bleed-through collide as Bill Freemer’s obsession with the lost Playlist of ’68 deepens, the mysterious caller lingers, and Studio B hums with secrets. The Sponsorship Initiative cements TKRN’s weird new normal: sponsors, sketches, and signals from nowhere—all fighting for space on the same dial.
