“We live in a revolutionary moment. The disastrous economic and political experiment that attempted to organize human behavior around the dictates of the global marketplace has failed. The promised prosperity that was to have raised the living standards of works through trickle-down economics has been exposed as lie.”

The production on this Eternia track is outstanding…wait until you get to the They Reminisce Over You sample/moment. Produced by by Apathy of the Demigodz: well done!
Hip Hop’s origins are explored in a 4 part dynamic television docu-series on HBO…like the Genesis beginning or rap (actually not even rap…it wasn’t anything when it first started). Kool Herc, Afrika Bambaataa and Grandmaster Flash beginnings. Not to fret though (OUR golden era…Tribe, De La etc. appear in the third episode. Yes!). Hip-Hop Evolution…

Back in 2011 HBO aired a Ricky Gervais produced comedy special: 49 minutes of Jerry Seinfeld, Chris Rock, Ricky Gervais and Louis C.K. analyzing comedy and breaking down stand up. If you’ve seen Seinfeld’s Comedians in Cars Getting Coffee it’s sorta like that only stationary. (You know…Comedians in Cars aired in 2012 and I can’t help but wonder if Talking Funny sparked or even influenced Seinfeld’s new show).
