' #BobMarley, the legendary Jamaican #musician, was a pioneer of #reggae #music whose impact transcended borders and generations.

Born in 1945 in Nine Mile, Jamaica, Marley rose to fame in the 1970s with his band, The Wailers. His music was infused with themes of social justice, love, and spirituality, making him a voice for the oppressed and marginalized. Hits like “No Woman, No Cry,” “Redemption Song,” and “ #One #Love” continue to #resonate with audiences #worldwide. #Marley’s work not only defined a genre but also served as a catalyst for cultural and political movements. Despite his untimely death in 1981, his legacy lives on, inspiring countless artists and activists to this day.'

Here we can hear Bob anwering many questions to journalists showing the depth of his being and his raw ,uncompromised rastafarian opinions.(aututranslation by youtube)

1:00pm SLT: A LIMB

A Limb is a kind of artistic Frankenstein, exhuming all sorts of music corpses from their graves, stitching an ambient body with funk legs, punk feet, experimental arms, jazz hands, a drone head, inserting a big ethnic music heart and krautrock lungs... then bathing the whole "body" into a dub effects bath, until an electro thunderbolt strikes it and... omg... it's... alive! Hmm.. sometimes science goes too far, but it's too late to back-pedal...

#OliverAnthony with #JordanPeterson: #Art, #Commerce, and the #Religious | EP 382

top

Dr. Jordan B. Peterson and breakout #musician Chris Lunsford, better known by his stage name Oliver Anthony, #discuss the balance between #vision and efficiency in #artistic and commercial endeavors, why Chris’ hit song “Rich Men North of Richmond,” has resonated so broadly and so quickly, the way honest #expression through #music can combat #demoralization, how #politics have become confused with the sacred, and what we can do to restore each to their proper order.

Oliver Anthony, real name Christopher Anthony Lunsford, is an #American #country/ #folk musician from #Farmville, #Virginia. He just recently went #viral for his #anthem #song, “Rich Men North of Richmond” – which has resonated across the country for its #messaging about #Washington D.C. and the #state of #poverty and #mental #health in the #broader U.S.. Chris has stated his politics as being right down or near the center, though already tribalism has attempted to take hold of or alternatively reduce/dismiss him, all the while “Rich Men” has amassed nearly 60 million views on YT in just over a month, and trended the billboard charts (Hitting number one more than once) since its release. Chris named his YT channel Oliver Anthony Music after his grandfather, whom he has described as a “real 1930’s Appalachian man.” Since his song's virality, he has already been offered – and turned down – an 8 million dollar recording contract, and is making waves as a truly authentic artist both in performance and practice.

now I like him even more.

https://www.zerohedge.com/markets/rich-men-north-richmond-artist-turns-down-8-million-stunned-music-execs-says-nothing#google_vignette

People in the #music industry give me blank stares when I brush off 8 million dollar offers. I don't want 6 tour buses, 15 tractor trailers and a jet. I don't want to play stadium shows, I don't want to be in the spotlight. I wrote the music I wrote because I was suffering with #mentalhealth and #depression. These songs have connected with millions of people on such a deep level because they're being sung by someone feeling the words in the very moment they were being sung. No editing, no agent, no bullshit. Just some idiot and his guitar. The style of music that we should have never gotten away from in the first place.
.
My legal name is #Christopher #Anthony #Lunsford. My grandfather was #Oliver #Anthony, and "Oliver Anthony Music" is a dedication not only to him, but 1930's #Appalachia where he was born and raised. Dirt floors, seven kids, hard times. At this point, I'll gladly go by Oliver because everyone knows me as such. But my friends and family still call me Chris. You can decide for yourself, either is fine.
.
In 2010, I dropped out of high school at age 17. I have a GED from #SprucePine, #NC. I worked multiple plant jobs in Western NC, my last being at the paper mill in McDowell county. I worked 3rd shift, 6 days a week for $14.50 an hour in a living hell. In 2013, I had a bad fall at work and fractured my skull. It forced me to move back home to #Virginia. Due to complications from the injury, it took me 6 months or so before I could work again.
.
From 2014 until just a few days ago, I've worked outside sales in the industrial manufacturing world. My job has taken me all over Virginia and into the Carolinas, getting to know tens of thousands of other blue collar workers on job sites and in factories. Ive spent all day, everyday, for the last 10 years hearing the same story. People are SO damn tired of being #neglected, #divided and #manipulated.
.
In 2019, I paid $97,500 for the property and still owe about $60,000 on it. I am living in a 27' camper with a tarp on the roof that I got off of #craigslist for $750.
.
There's nothing special about me. I'm not a good #musician, I'm not a very good person. I've spent the last 5 years struggling with mental health and using #alcohol to drown it. I am sad to see the world in the state it's in, with everyone fighting with each other. I have spent many nights feeling #hopeless, that the greatest country on Earth is quickly fading away.
...
That being said, I HATE the way the #Internet has divided all of us. The Internet is a #parasite, that #infects the minds of humans and has their way with them. Hours wasted, goals forgotten, #loved ones sitting in houses with each other distracted all day by #technology made by the hands of other poor souls in sweat shops in a foreign land.
.

When is enough, enough? When are we going to fight for what is right again? MILLIONS have died protecting the #liberties we have. #Freedom of speech is such a precious gift. Never in world history has the world had the freedom it currently does. Don't let them take it away from you.

.
Just like those once wandering in the desert, we have lost our way from #God and have let false idols distract us and divide us. It's a damn shame.

Harry Belafonte, singer, actor and activist, has died at age 96

This makes me so sad. Sure he was old, but still, it's a big loss for the world to lose such an amazing man.

I admired him since I was very young. Reading about him in some of the few pieces on Iran who actually covered black activists like him.

His songs, became part of my first love to alternative music (from young teenage boy growing up in southern Iran point of interest) and waa delighted to find his albums at the Västerås StadsBibliotrk in Sweden.

His work to fight injustice didn't stop in US, and he fought with all his power against the apartheid regime of South Africa.

He was a great artist and a great man. R. I. P. Mr. Blafonte and thank you for opening my eyes and ears to a whole new wonderful world of music and widen my my narrow interes in my young days.

Singer, actor and human rights activist Harry Belafonte died Tuesday at age 96 of congestive heart failure. He broke racial barriers and balanced his activism with his artistry in ways that made people around the world listen. Belafonte, who was an EGOT holder for his Emmy, Grammy, Oscar and Tony awards, died at his home in New York, his publicist announced.

Style, class and charisma: That was Harry Belafonte as a performer. In the 1950s, his recordings for RCA Victor, which included his iconic version of the Jamaican folk song "Day-O" (also known as "The Banana Boat Song") set off a craze for calypso music. With his good looks and his shirt unbuttoned to his chest, audiences — Black and white — adored Belafonte at a time when most of America was still segregated.
