Join me for this inspiring conversation with Deborah Jane Burke, a dynamic Hollywood Film & TV writer and producer.  Fun fact:  as a student at Stanford, Deborah wrote and produced a Hip Hopera that starred Issa Rae as a student!  Since then, she has worked with networks including FOX, TBS, BET, PBS and so much more. Deborah's latest project is a bit strange shall we say...stranger than fiction but inspired by real life! Deborah takes us on an audio journey with her current project --the award-winning independent film Strange Fruit: The Hip-hopera. Find out how a recurring nightmare turned into an artistic venture and tells a tale of contemporary and historic truth that we can all learn from.  It's not just a film; it's a modern approach to storytelling in which we tell our own stories to ignite critical conversations about the construct of race in our country, all while doing so to the musical beats and lyrics of hip hop.  Broadway here we come! A child of Guyanese immigrants who were one of the only Black families in suburban Orange County, Cali; Ya'll the neighbors couldn't handle it and moved!

As the daughter of Guyanese immigrants who grew up as one of the only Black families in a predominantly white Orange County suburb, Deborah Jane found refuge in writing and hip-hop, igniting her passion for social justice and storytelling through music. Her journey led her to Stanford University, where she penned an award-winning hip-hop musical inspired by a childhood nightmare of being trapped in slavery. The play was later developed into a short film and is now in the process of becoming a feature-length film about racial reconciliation called, Strange Fruit: The Hip-hopera.Deborah Jane enjoys a successful Hollywood career, and has contributed to major networks such as FOX, TBS, BET, and PBS. Independently, she founded the House of Deborah Jane Studios with a mission to disrupt the status quo, amplify multi-cultural voices, and affect spiritual and social change through dynamic TV, film, theater, and music, with a particular emphasis on musicals.

We close off talking about Isr@el's lies (1:17:35), & whether the deep state is stupid or just thinks we're stupid (1:21:31).Recorded 11/15/23Some info about Amy Schumer's (likely) record of stealing other comedians' jokesCarmen: a Hip Hopera in it's entirety

This is the intimate, yet very open interview my husband, legendary Rap Artist, and supreme West Coast innovator from the Heavyweights Crew- which includes, Freestyle Fellowship ( Aceylone, Peace, Myka 9, Jupiter) , Medusa, Ganjah k ( RIP), Abstract Rude, D.K. Toon, DJ Kiilu, DJinji Brown, etc. He has high level content: from his first classic album, "Hip Hopera," to" Psycho", and "Pawnshop", to the present album, (" VOLUME 10 is Dean Hawkins", which is not actually a "rap" album, he's singing on 90% of it- and only has one feature- ME-his wife, TOMEICKO), nor the album he brought out in 2021-22 during the pandemic called, "AKHENATEN 2110", (which is ridiculously dope!) THIS interview is about BRAIN DAMAGE, the album that came out right before the most current classics. he explains and describes all of the thought processes that develops the songs on this album. it is a real interview, not a pretty one... --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/tomeickoshow/message

What is a genre of music? It's an artistic composition characterized by similarities in form, style and subject. Well what if you're taking two styles that you wouldn't think could mix, but, when combined, send chills down your spine? Blayne, Ian and Jimmy are doing just that by combining operatic singing - a more classical form of music, with Lo-Fi Hip-Hop - which has been making a big impact on the music industry today. We caught Blayne, Ian and Jimmy in Montreal in the middle of bringing together this idea that they have been working on for some time. This is one genre you'll want to keep on your radar, and it's called Hip-Hopera.  Instagram - @beatsblayne / @ian_opera / @jimmyal37 / @hip.hopera

The Download announcement has got Steve and Remfry into a right tizzy, especially considering that Steve recently attended the Mercury Music Prize, an historically mocked (on this podcast at least) awards ceremony that's giving far more exciting bands and artists a platform than Download seem to be managing at the moment. Steve and Remfry discuss (well .... Steve mainly rants, Remfry mainly listens). Ironically, it comes at a time when there is plenty of extremely exciting rock and metal bands making music, as is demonstrated in this week's album reviews with new releases by Car Bomb, .gif from God and Nervus. The boys also cast their beady critical eye over new albums by 65DaysofStatic and Oddarrang and trade-off comes courtesy of mewithoutYou and Plan B.

Each week, Joey, Nathan and Kelly revisit an episode of Animaniacs in the order in which they first premiered. They discuss their favorite jokes, gags, and discuss all the cultural references they can find. Today your hosts discuss an Animaniacs hip-hop musical originally released in 1995 as a read-along book based upon "A Christmas Plotz." Preview for Next Week Before getting into the discussion of today’s album the hosts take some time to discuss next week's episode! Last week Joey drove to Los Angeles to reunite the cast of the Goodfeathers at Tom Ruegger’s house! That's right, next week you'll get to hear Chick Vennera, John Mariano and Maurice LaMarche along with Animaniacs creator, Tom Ruegger! This was the first time they had all been together in over 20 years! It's going to be an episode you won't want to miss, so subscribe to our podcast so you don't miss it! A Christmas Plotz Hip-Hopera Musical Produced in part by rapper Kool Moe Dee, this is an album that was originally released on a cassette tape with a read-along book. Later, it was re-released on CD with the CD booklet taking the place of the book. The short album features the original Animaniacs cast “rapping” the storyline of “A Christmas Plotz.” The catchy songs by Randy Rogel are gone. In their place are some moody rap songs that don't always fit the Christmas spirit. The hosts discuss some of the main songs and some samples are played. Overall it's a pretty bad album. But how bad is it? Well, you'll just have to listen to find out! What do you think? Was this album as bad as we thought or did you like what you head?

We also discuss 'The Single' where it came from and where we'd like to take it. And the discussion is capped off with a brief exploration of the idea of 'Concept Albums'. At the end of the podcast we play a song called 'The Monster Within' by Jonathan Toth from Hoth off his album Brainwashing: The Art of Hip-Hopera the closest thing in Hip - Hop to a Pink Floyd 'The Wall' style concept album.
