Throwback Thursdays: Animate Objects

DateThursday, July 17, 2014 at 8:46AM

Only throwing back to 2003 on this one but it's a good one. Yesterday I electronically ran into an old friend from Animate Objects - a hip-hop band that I Godfathered over a decade ago. Great live band that still make music. Here's the cut from 2008 that earned them the Best Hip-Hop Song at the Independent Music Awards. Miss these cats. This is feel good music, folks.

Feel Good Fridays: T.R.U.T.H.

DateFriday, October 4, 2013 at 8:08AM

I like it when I get to help put someone on. In this town I've done my best to give a boost to talent that I believe in. Elsinore, Krukid, Kate Hathaway, Animate Objects, Santah - mentoring, recording demos, putting them on prime shows. It's even more rewarding to see those artists climb and achieve success. Tonight I get to do that again. T.R.U.T.H. is young, smart and hungry. She'll be opening the show tonight and she's worth your time. Dig.
