~ ALEX MILLER . . ‘SILVER WINGS’ – MERLE HAGGARD / American Idol

I’m completely done . . !!
with American Idol after they bounced – this guy.
what a bunch of losers – they completely missed the music, & the zeitgeist.

watch: high school student, ALEX MILLER croon Merle Haggard’s . . ‘Silver Wings’.

he reminds me of a baby-faced / young John Mayer, he’ll lose the pudginess & become a killer performer /
mark my words.




~’PEACHES’ . . JUSTIN BIEBER ft. DANIEL CAESAR & GIVEON / CO-WRITTEN + PRODUCED BY HARV

yeps. Iam definitely aging . . . backwards !!!!

such a great song / infinite in inspo & so, wise-funny / the song music, lyrics, voices, layers.
mood, visuals. love. all good.
just that tight cut / puts it above the rest.
#1 song in the world / that’s such a great global synch-up.

but, I know a lot of people in the art world, bubbled-up in their own studios, and ambition-driven mind-sets /
outsiders roiled by emotion & doubt / insiders licking their wounds or tracking the next big break /
& esp the academics, have their head in the sand most times . . . so:

“I get my peaches out in Georgia / I get my weed from California . .”

come on . . !!


watch: ‘PEACHES’, Justin Bieber featuring Daniel Caesar & Giveon / written & produced by HARV . . !!

see: @harv / Instgram

hey – great color palette, btw !!!!!
nice car !! / great night scenes.
great acrobatic cruising.
great neon !! off-color / transparent, translucent big acrylic letters.
great typeface. size. tunnel effect. the entire mood.
just rolls / like a butter knife . . thru the grey-ness.

if people can create as much as well & even better / as others do make war & set about global / bio troubles,
maybe that’s all good.
maybe . . inspo can prevail.
I think that’s called . . religion.
