Every week thousands of songs are released to radio, on streaming platforms, on digital stores, on social media, mixtapes, & CD albums. It would be impossible for the average musick lover to absorb this & sift through them -- That's why you have me. I'm Jakob Musick, & I was meant for this. You could say it's in my blood, or genes. Or Whatever.

We have a mix of pop, R&B, & Hip-Hop today, with an emphasis on the R&B. I admit my first pick is just a slight degree away from being awful, but it is infectious & there is just something about tinkling basslines that really gets me going. Young Thug is quite obviously not a manufacturer of great musick, but I supremely enjoyed his entry with R&B star Keyshia Cole earlier this year. This pales in comparison, but it is fun. If you are going to do crap-hop, do it like #1. Listen in for the rest!

Today!

Or Whatever.

Today, I'm going to be highlighting a few great songs as well as one terrible one in a variety of genres - Hip-hop, Electropop, Vocal Jazz, Soul-- Though today's show is mostly Pop. It is fascinating to look at how many disperate releases are actually products of the same conglomerates. French mega-corporation Vivendi is responsible for 1, 3, 4, & 7 (Pop, Hip-Hop, & Jazz!). Oftentimes the differents parts of the same giant organization might not even be aware of each other's existence. Regarding no. 1 , I believe Justin Timberlake's vocal from the original "Where Is The Love" was utilizes, & I distinctly believe I heard some Mary J. & Usher in the background vocals of the song. However, I have no seen any official confirmation of this.

Today!

1. #WHEREISTHELOVE - Black Eyed Peas, The World, Nas, Mary J. Blige(?), Usher(?), Justin Timberlake (?) - Pop - Interscope (Vivendi)

2. The Great Divide - Rebecca Black - Pop - Self-released

Rajée & I are re-united once again! It is incredible to think that we first 'met' in 2014. She gives us an update as to her story related in her "Memory Lane" (https://soundcloud.com/jakob-musick/memory-lane-rajee) & also tells us what has been going on in the world of the world-famous 'cement woman' who is oh-so much more. She is more woman than most 'real' ladies out there!

Check out another interview with an incredible, dynamic, lovely individual that truly is a 'divine' presence in this often-disgusting world. Rajée is a reminder to not let our hearts harden to cement-proportions & to stay flexible like the silicone in her breasts.

Rajée is hoping to get more musick available to the public, continuing to appear on rotation on E! network, still promoting her memoir "Beyond Face Value" written in the wake of her infamy, continuing to travel the American Talk Show circuit, & has debuted the hub for new website rajeenarinesingh.eu.pn

She is simply.............Rajeelicious

In this Memory Lane, I talk to an Indian woman who now resides in the United States. Her name is Lopamudra - 'One who does the hand motions' -- & she explains her very layered life. If there is a woman who has lived what is an abstract concept for many people -- multiculturalism -- it is Lopamudra. Her family entered the post-colonial Anglified Bouergoisie of the Indian nation after the partition and the intercine conflicts that followed. After they fled, they were able to rise in social strata in their new home & send their children to private Catholic schools. Educated in the Catholic way, from a Anglified Hindu upper-class family, Lopamudra brings with her the layers of history, colonialism, & later Feminism, that would characterize her unique experience & outlook.

Lopamudra starts from a memory of a lie. A lie that, in retrospect, was not that consequential, but for her it marked her moment of symbolic castration. From here, her guilt grew. Listen to this story of a woman situated in the matrix of the multicultural- an academic feminist who imagines a death that pre-dated her. 'That little baby haunted me', she says of her dead brother.

Listen to Lopamudra's story

Musick:

Rebel Heart (DJ FmSteff 2015 Totalmix) - Madonna

Hit Em Wit Da Hee (Instrumental) - Missy Elliott

In one of the most dramatic episodes of Memory Lane, Roger tells a story of love, divorce, & drug addiction. Roger came from a well-off family, & he is very aware that his trajectory, as well as his race, played a part in how his particular addiction story played out. For Roger, who was working as a nurse at the time, was prescribed Hydromorphone after an injury (which is commonly known under its German Brand name Dilaudid). Within 6 weeks of this prescription, Roger was shooting up Hydromorphone at dangerously high levels. And then he was caught.

Listen to this extremely compelling edition of Memory Lane to hear one of the quickest falls I have yet to learn of into the pit of addiction. Roger is forthright & now can look back years later, but his addiction , he says, destroyed everything in his life. He is only now, almost a decade later, being able to reconstruct what addiction took from him.

Share this story of addiction with someone who is in danger of developing this illness!
