This a flashback episode of the syndicated FuseBox Radio Broadcast with DJ Fusion & Jon Judah for the week of Nov. 21, 2012 (originally from the week of March 25, 2009; due to us being on Thanksgiving Weekend vacation here in the States) with some new and classic Hip-Hop & Soul Music, news and commentary. That week's commentary focused on some recent mainstream news stories about health disparities and issues for the Black community to other communities in the U.S. and some other things here and there. We had a great interview with Soul Music Artist Tony Williams (http://www.myspace.com/thetonywilliams) from G.O.O.D. Music. This interview was done right before the inauguration of U.S. President Barack Obama in D.C. where we takled about everything from Tony Williams' life & background, the importance of continuing a strong Black Music tradition, his influences, the music industry, his upcoming album "King or The Fool", the historical impact of having a Black American elected to be president and many other things! Due to our interview, we did not have new Direct EFX or Black Agenda Report segments this week.
