I posted this show originally in 2017 however since the student protests fighting for the rights and protection of Palestinians, I thought it would be prudent to repost this episode.Many pundits have likened this time to the turbulence of 1968, so let’s look back on how artists were inspired by all the movements to end war, and for social change. This episode explores the post  Dr. King Era of riots, protests, and continued discourse for one America for all. Vietnam was raging overseas, and young boys were coming home in body bags, limbless or mentally scarred forever. The divide between races, gender, wealth, and power was increasing at a rapid rate. This was Nixon’s America; hardworking families trying to make ends meet. It was a time of double-digit unemployment and inflation wrapped up in stagnation. This all sounds too familiar to the present day although today's America comes equipped with its own nuances. This story was told so eloquently by the artisans of the day through song.Can America learn from the mistakes of the past?This episode features the works of Marvin Gaye, The Temptations, The O’Jays, Stevie Wonder, Curtis Mayfield, Sly & the Family Stone, and others.Remember when music was Music!Stand up for your rights.DJ Rhythm DeePLAYLIST1.

This episode dives into the year 1978, the year that funk & disco peaked in urban and dance culture. Still in my teens, it was all about house parties, school dances, and all-ages clubs. This particular year covers one of my most memorable years of high school life. It was about the latest dances like the Freak, the Hustle, the Rock, and many others. Pierre Elliot Trudeau and Jimmy Carter ruled our borders, Star Wars and Saturday Night Fever were released late in the prior year but still dominated pop culture. Afros and three-piece suits governed my look, and it was also the year I started dee-jaying.So, let’s go back in time for an hour or so and reflect on the way it used to be long before we were beholden to our current responsibilities.BMS My 1978 features Chic, Funkadelic, Switch, Sylvester, Rose Royce, and many more.Let’s remember when music was Music!DJ Rhythm DeePLAYLIST1.
