About To Pop Off

Contrary to my last long post, if this one had a sound track it would be the LMFAO and Lil Jon song. (think about it) Speaking of which, I really enjoy their sound and I like the different sounds I'm seeing coming from some new artist. However, all can not be well, because while I observe a really original movement going on I am also forced to observe one that is much less original. I regret to acknowledge the RETURN OF GENERIC POP. I thought this was the case a while back but I was in denile. But now it's quite clear. Generic, standard, opiate of the masses pop music is making a comeback. I think the first song I heard was Iyaz's "Replay", but I thought maybe it was a fluke. Then, I heard Jay Sean's "Down". By the way, WTF! Really Cash Money?! 10 years ago you were like the grimiest label. NOW THIS! Talk about destroying street cred.
Anyway as if these to songs weren't bad enough, I came home one day and my brother was watching BET with a disgusted look on his face. On the screen was this video...




The first thing I thought was, "great, rip off one of my favorite videos.". I hope I wasn't the only one who noticed this immediately...




Jason Derulo, you suck.

I blame Chris Brown. His career is tarnished and they are putting out artists that sound like him (but make cornier songs). Why Chris is trying to make a comeback with a more bad ass image after beating his girlfriend I don't understand. I think they are tying to capitalize on the amount of respect he lost. Although Jason Derulo has some suspect lyrics: "you'll be screaming NO! …in my head, it's going down" Might be something Chris can relate to.

Whatever the reason is, this resurrection in music has instilled a great fear in me. I fear that 2010 will see the return of the dreaded "BOY BAND" [AAAAAHHHHHHH!]

No, I don't mean these guys.



They're the new Hanson, they're a real band. They actually play instruments (I'm not a fan of them either though). I mean the new N'SYNC, Backstreet Boys, 98 Degrees, LFO, NKOTB, and the other acts that taught me the oh so important lesson in my younger days that music can actually sound bad.
To be honest, I did like N'SYNC and the song "Everybody (Backstreets Back)" (I was 12 and the video was hot, sue me) but everything else was pretty bad. I hope I'm wrong, but if I'm right I only hope it will open the door for a new R&B group. That could be cool. That's all I have to say about that. No matter what happens, I'll be watching with…

Big Week Ahead For PF!

So this is going to be a very important week in the timeline of Passenger Flow!'s career... will probably be considered the beginning actually... Jag and I have been doing our thing for a while now, but its pretty much all been about the behind the scenes stuff, meetings about our plans of action, home studio recording sessions, private rehearsals...

But now everything is about to go public...

"Passenger Flow! Presents: Dusk, The EP" is on the way, actually working on some production tweeks currently, so the finished product will be available very, very soon...

We are scheduled to hit up a radio show too, and our first ever Passenger Flow! performance is around the corner as well... We also have our mixtape features on President Jones' upcoming projects (shoutout Pres.J and the Mixtape-A-Month)...

Big things poppin with PF!, and if everything goes as it should, you will be hearing our name a bit more often haha... until then, guess we'll just keep living for each moment cause...

Allow Me to Introduce Myself, My Name Is...

NYe., N to the Y e... lol

Whats good ya'll? Its taken me a while to get my 1st post up here, but I figured I should do a little intro...

So basically this blog for me will be an outlet to get out my random thoughts and ideas, things that go on in my mind, how I view the world, my likes/dislikes... you get the picture...

Here are my some of my ultimate goals:
1. Share dope music with the world (PF! Yeah!)
2. Photo-blog, I've always had an interest in photography, and sometimes when looking through a lens I see some pretty interesting things
3. Create videos, just got an editing program, so some new vids should be appearing on here randomly
4. Share my interest, my mind, my life, just give the world some insight into the man that they will all get to know musically...

That's pretty much it, I'm looking forward to sharing this experience with ya'll, hope ya enjoy it.

Today is also the anniversary of the passing of a really good friend of mine, so I'm especially reminded to live for each moment cause....

The No Shot Zone Part 1

Welcome to the first installment of what I'm going to call "The No Shot Zone" these are times where I'm just going to call things how I see them. I'm not trying to hate or take shots at anyone mentioned in these posts but I will not hold back either. My thoughts, no filter, if someone gets offended it's too bad but I am NOT taking shots. Brace yourselves, this will be a long one.

The subject I would like to examine in this installment of the "No Shot Zone" is a new phenomena in hip hop that has developed over the last decade. This is that fact that rappers no longer need street credibility to be accepted.

So Umm...

About that warning I gave about the possibility that I could write long posts... There's one one the way. Trust me, it'll be worth the read. Something I like to call the "No Shot Zone" coming soon.

Short and sweet

So, I'm chilling home on a Saturday night. Well, not just chilling, but working on mastering a song and listening to an instrumental I created that we'll be recording over tomorrow. I figured I'd take a second and jot something quick to keep this blog moving. I've been on another blog in the past and I tend to write what could be called short essays if given an interesting enough topic. I'll try not to go in like that on this blog but if something strikes my passion, you have been warned. So don't be suprised if there is a whole page rant one day by Jag. It's just how I get down sometimes. But for now I'll keep it short and sweet.
