I checked out Van Hunt last night in the ATL. He is keeping the funk movement alive… nuances, guitar riffs and bass lines intact. His performance was flawless. Here is Muted Symphony from his latest release Use In Case of Emergency (b-sides, demos & remixes). Download it at www.vanhunt.com.

One of my favorite people and favorite artists, Fahamu Pecou. Pecou’s body of work features painting, video and performances that explore the phenomenon of contemporary propaganda and brand building as well as the cultural context of media and promotion and its disconnection and relevance to fine art. His work exposes the stereotypes that surround black masculinity as reflected in contemporary media. This piece is entitled Warn-A-Brother, from his 2008 series Stunt’d Like My Daddy.

I still love you, but I’ve gotta roll. Doors open, windows close and the impossible always opens up new possibilities.

My love for you will be reflected in the letting go, not in the holding on. In the release, not in the embrace.

This was a message in a bottle from him. Jay-Z’s I Know What You Like. He knows I dig Jay and he really does know what I like. This song was all swagger. All male bravado and alpha male on his part. I like. I like. It made me smile one of those smiles. ;)
