Just my opinion. But an informed one. Comic shop manager 2000-2018. Film home-schooled since 1995. Music producer since 1985. Sober since 1972.

If you visited my home, I wouldn't necessarily announce what my favorite comic series is, but there would be some subtle clues.

Nobody asked, nor cares, but just for kicks:
1. Trevor Horn & The Art Of Noise
2. Kurtis Mantronik
3. Double Dee & Steinski
4. Marley Marl
5. Norman Cook
Beyond 1990, I've been *inspired* by plenty other producers, but I couldn't honestly say I've been *influenced* by them.

In 86/87 I was absolutely trying to make stuff like Arthur Baker, AON, Mantronik & Marley. But I've never once gone into a song thinking "Let me replicate Premier / Pete Rock / Dilla". I'm too preoccupied trying to make the sound in the speakers reflect the sound in my own head.

Some might be aghast at no Premier; he's on the cusp, as I enjoyed his 89 GangStarr work, but he didn't really ping my radar until 91's "Step In The Arena". An inspiration, not an influence. He's a contemporary; which sounds like a boast, but it's not - it's just how time works.

Audible narrator Meghan Kelly has a particularly distinctive intonation style, which is oddly evocative of Michael Conner Humphreys as young Forrest in "Forrest Gump". It's so distracting I can't possibly enjoy whatever she reads. Check out the samples:

I wasn't really planning on seeing it anyway, but these trailers for the upcoming "Masters Of The Universe" film look like A.I. generated parodies of what a "Masters Of The Universe" trailer would look like.

I don't know exactly what the creators of Netflix's "His & Hers" were going for, but somehow I don't think derisive laughter at its hysterical absurdity is what they had in mind.

The "Rainbow Connection" tune is a particularly... nice? touch.

One has to admire HBO's "A Knight Of The Seven Kingdoms" for further narrowing the thematic gap between "Game Of Thrones" and "Monty Python And The Holy Grail". 🙄

For anyone who's never actually visited Boston's 22-foot 20-ton tribute to Martin Luther King and Coretta Scott King: the sculpture is also surrounded by 69 plaques honoring local civil rights activists of the 1950s-1970s, including the parents of Keith Elam, Guru of Gang Starr.
