This is a new track from the homies Matt r. Martians (Super 3) and Hall Williams. Who together makes the group The Jet age of Tomorrow. This group is just the face of a movement developing upon like minded individuals that appreciates good music. Sick of people in their age group coping out and just making rap music, they decided to take their inspiration and follow in the footsteps of groups like Daft Punk, Fantastic Plastic Machine and Stereolab.
Their album is a mixture of funk instrumental ballads mixed with Euro dance and Electronica. With plans of working with Janelle Monae and others, The Jet Age of Tomorrow is planing on creating a new wave of creative music for our generation. Their single from the new project “Voyager” (May2010) features their homie BrandUn Deshay . Check out the track and let us know what you think.

My big brother Mike Bigga from Adamsville drops off a nice collab with Luda and Game. I think Game should have chilled and asked for another opportunity, but the chemistry with the two Georgia bulldogs sounds great. Check out the track and let me know what you think.

Also check out Mike’s blog over at XXL.com

ODD FUTURE

Mr. Ferris Bueller aka . F.Luxury B is a person who inspires me on a daily basis.

Dr. Michael Eric Dyson speaking at the State of the Black Union (2005).

I had the chance to hear

Professor Dyson speak at my University a few weeks ago. I have to say he has a great way of explaining things that others make so difficult for people to understand.

I'm currently reading his book titled "Can You Hear Me Now".

In this book he touches on alot of different subjects : Obama, Faith, Love and Relationships, Music, Literature , Sports, Gender, Poverty amongst many more.

I happen to run accross this part of the Union and decided to post it .

Just a little food for thought.

I'm really looking forward to the " Where is Smokee Robinson" Mixtape hosted by Don Cannon.

Mr.Coltrane Curtis has been becoming more and more of an idol of mines.

I enjoy seeing his events and I also enjoy reading and hearing what he has to say about our culture. It's interesting that some of his views are some of the same topics of conversations that me and my close friends have all of the time.

Mr. Coltrane Curtis graduated from Morehouse College and Lives in NYC. Him along with his team have their hands in over 11 brands marketing plans. The one that you guys might be most up on is with Pepsi. They have been sending out cool gift packages to trendsetters and influencers to build relationships. They also did a cool show with the Gourmet brand.

I would have to say that Team Epiphany are setting the stage for young people like us to

Stay Cool and Win .

Finally Famous

On days like this we take time out to reflect on those that have paved the way for us to be where we are. This is a picture of a plot on my school's campus Georgia Southern University.

It represents the progress of our culture. John Dorise Bradley and 13 others were the 1st group of students to enter and break the color barrier here at this university.

I walk by this tree and sign everyday and everyday I'm grateful for those steps they took to make it possible for me to get a education.

With that said , I would like to say Happy M.L.King day to all.

Thumbs up !

This is a book I had a chance to read by Taylor Branch that gives a deep look into the Life of

Dr. Martin Luther King as an Individual an his road to progress in the civil rights era.

I hope you all have a great and reflective day.

I will Have the chance to go hear Dr. Micheal Eric Dyson tomorrow @ my University's Performing Arts Center.

I'm excited about hearing him speak ! , hopefully pics and info will be posted.
