Video Survived The Streaming Star - Audio Documentary

In this entry of Something Else, our featured artist is @opas with dope lofi vibes rich in earthy tones and nostalgic boom bap flows. Blends and beats well emulsified with snippets from Assassins (1995)starring Sylvester Stallone and Antonio Banderas. These two stars have excellent chemistry in the this action/suspense film where they are opposing assassins in a game meant only for professionals. Supporting role by Julianne Moore and the high pace give it an overall 90s feel of tension and fun. Check it out on a rainy day when it looks like taxis are still a thing.

On Today's episode my son and i talk about two movies we saw in theater, we couldnt stop talking about both films so naturally we had to take it to the podcast to discuss the amazing work of ryan coogler and the latest marvel film.

Movie Review W/ My Son

This week, Jimmie and Richie welcome Gary — a movie buff, Elvis superfan, and all-around character — to Talking Shit About Nothing. Gary drops the iconic USS Indianapolis monologue from Jaws, reveals what really happened to the King himself, and doesn’t miss a chance to bust Jimmie’s chops along the way. It’s movies, music, mystery… and a whole lot of laughs.

Talking Sh!t About Nothing | Episode 7: Jaws, Elvis, and Endless Ball-Busting (ft. Gary)

I listen to entirely too many beats. 
 [rnd] pros.

Sometimes I rap.
Sometimes I rap a lot.
Sometimes I don't.
Sometimes.
I'm probably cooking.
