Oops I Did It Again!

I have done it again, I know. I have neglected my blog. This time I will not make any excuses or make any promises to do better.

We are nearly halfway into 2011 and so much has taken place. Let's start with me and the reason why I have become so remiss in my writing. Well, as stated earlier I am in graduate school. I just completed my 3rd year and I made all As by the way.

Any who, graduate school is really taking up a lot of my time. I don't have much of a life anymore, but this is the price I must pay for success. So there, I am admitting that I just don't have the time to frequently write my blog. I apologize for this.

I have not had much time to even check out new music. Some how it feels as though I am loosing my passion for music. The mundane non lyrical style of everyone sounding like everyone else has me completely depressed. I am in a musical slump. Sure, I find some very good artists, but great artists are so hard to come by these days.

Ah, I need to digress . . .

I must mention this before I leave, we have lost some great artists in the past three years. First, Michael Jackson in 2009. We also loss Teena Marie and Guru in 2010. Now, we have lost Gil Scott-Heron, May 27, 2011.

My heart aches for the music and messages we will lose in the future. I hope it is true that the music lives on and some kind of substance eventually comes back to our ear drums.

This time I will not promise to write more . . . all I can say is that I will do my best. That's all we can do.

SUPPORT INDEPENDENT, GOOD MUSIC!!!!!
