Another great PBS ‘Blank on Blank’ episode. This one features animation of an interview with the ‘hardest working man in show business’… the late great Soul Brother #1, James Brown! An artist known to speak on politics and civil rights, he also had a thing or two to say about late President Ronald Reagan. Watch. Very interesting.

In all my years in radio I can relate to this story from Larry King! Hahaaa!

Kanye West Stops By Sway In The Morning To Talk About A Life Without Boundaries (Video)
November 27, 2013
“Willy Wonka didn’t stop making chocolate because he started making other things… People want to marginalize me from the top all the way to the bottom…It’s people who just want to hear the music that are like ‘don’t work on nothing else ’cause we love your music so much’…”
– Kanye West on ‘Sway In The Morning’
The “Yeezus” Tour is Kanye’s demo tape… his stage play… movie. And that’s just the musical expansion. Above: Kanye West talks to Sway In The Morning about the music, his mentors, his messages, fashion and more.
Brands, boundaries, borders… they do NOT fit Ye. Don’t try it! Try to follow the conversation though. Interesting insights from the man and mogul about music and much more.
Word to the wise: Adjust your ‘focus’ around the 14-minute mark so you can understand how things go OFF THE RAIL! The brothers work it out though. Just don’t try to turn up on Sway either. Just saying Ye.
Think that’s something? Check out the Power 105 Breakfast Club appearance (after the jump).

October 30, 2013
“The only real luxury is time.” – Kanye West
Deep, right? You know, Kanye is always worth a listen… even when we don’t get what he’s trying to say. But watching this, you’ll get it.

This is just 15 minutes of the sit-down. And what was that last name Yeezy dropped at the end? Whatcha’ll know about Elon Musk?
