Our Bay area big homey DJ Franchise drops off a mixtape in honor of his fallen comrade DJ Matthew Africa he has titled ‘Futurized Funk’…
“Widely known for his influential musical presence with B.I.G.’s “Ready to Die”, Easy Mo Bee brought a futurized funk to hip-hop/soul that has not been paralleled. His work with so many greats (Biggie, Busta, Kane, Miles Davis) still demands to be recognized. This mix helps serve that purpose.
Dedicated to and inspired by my good friend, Matthew Africa (RIP)“

I can remember when I first really heard John Coltrane and how I felt he was on this mission to find God with his instrument. Actually, he had found God and he was looking to constantly commune with God via music.
The human voice is a beautiful instrument and by extension the horns which magnify its radiance. This video clip is a little bit of church and for those that believe its a little bit of heaven. Happy new year John Coltrane.

Join ImageNation Cinema Foundation and the Schomburg Center for the New York Premiere of Bell Rung: A Football Mindset. Scores of ex-players live a silent life of emotional, physical, and financial struggle resulting from their days in the professional arena, and endure lifelong struggles due to uncared for concussions.
Join moderator Michael O’Keefe of the NY Daily News, former All Pro Super Bowl champion Dorsey Levens, nuerologist Dr. Joelle Mast, director Zach Herman, producer Nick Basta and others, for a talk back following the screening.
Co-produced by Levens, Bell Rung asks the questions that need to be asked: Is it acceptable for professional football players to remain neglected by the league and owners as they confront a post-professional football life of disability and perpetual pain?
Should professional football players have to endure trauma-induced brain damage, early onset dementia, and Alzheimer’s disease, often beginning well before the age of fifty and resulting in astronomical medical expenses without appropriate coverage?
Is society content to allow these former sports warriors to be cast aside and forgotten when they are no longer part of our national entertainment? Bell Rung answers these seeks the answers.
