American Theft is here!

Soooo, here's F.I.R.E. (American Theft). Yes I know I said "To be released exclusively on this website in March 2009" but I just couldn't keep it to myself. Hopefully you'll enjoy this scaled-down album which should hold you over til about June when part 2 comes out. Peace.

FRESH FOR 2009!

Okay, here's how it's gonna go: Thinking about the various current events that I could address during 2009 such as the inauguration of President Obama; the worsening financial crisis, the probable escalation of wars on Afghanistan and Pakistan; global warming which is amplifying; the recent admissions from VP Cheney that he sanctioned war crimes, and numerous other topics in addition to just making good ol' fashioned beats, I have decided that the economy will be the centerpiece of my Hiphop topics for 2009.

During 2009 I'll release a series of albums, no more than seven selection each probably. Most will be related to the fact that we in America have removed manufacturing from the center of our economy and replaced with a "service economy". In other words, an economy where we manufacture nothing of significance. According to economic historian Michael Hudson, and I agree with him, this service economy is based on Finance, Insurance, (Retail,) Real Estate, or F.I.R.E. It's important to address this because even Obama says things will get worse before they get better.

I see this as an opportunity to help people understand the shock (i.e., rescuing companies that are too big to fail) and miseducation (i.e., the misguided popularity of being a CEO as opposed to being an owner) being aimed at us; Hopefully this will allow us to resist ideas designed to make and keep us poor. Regardless of who their source turns out to be. With all that in mind, looks like I'm naming the next album F.I.R.E. (American Theft). To be released exclusively on this website in March 2009

FEMALE BEATMAKERS, ANYBODY?

Over the weekend I was wondering about why there seem to be almost no producers who are women in the Hiphop culture. I pondered, and pondered and eventually decided to post at Okayplayer.com. I thought I was the first to ask that question but I was not. Go there and give your thoughts about why in spite of so many women standing on stage, performing beautifully, there seem to be no significant number of women producing the songs they are singing. And if you around to it, send comments and criticisms to HaveNCredible.

In the Motivate section of the website I have added another album, The Afterschool Special.
As usual listen, download, distribute, and or hustle freely.

Album number ten is forming slowly. More later...

NEW SONGS IN THE BASEMENT

Good morning! The response to Welcome to the Next Level has been good. Not overwhelming but good. As usual, email comments and criticisms to HaveNCredible.

INot sure how I'm going to musically address the chaos that will pop up in 2009. You have the inauguration which inspires music and thoughts about legacy and history; The economic crisis which is going to get worse over the next year or two, the throwbacks who are expressing their racism in a wide variety of ways, plus the who-knows-what that will surely suprise us next year. To address some of this I'm Iooking into doing more albums with fewer songs but more focused topics. Then again maybe 09 will be the year of the box set. Who knows....

NEW ALBUM DROPS TODAY!

Good morning! Barack Obama wins the U.S. presidential election and of course today is November 6, 2008, so posted, as promised, right now for your enjoyment is my new album, Welcome to the Next Level in the motivate section of the website. As you can see I changed the name of the album from Pavement, America, and Good Intentions to something more descriptive. Make a small donation to my site.

Gotta go, more later.

CHANGE OF PLANS!

Good morning. On November 6, 2008, I will post my next album. It will NOT be The Blue Testament. My next album to be posted for free download in the public interest will depend on who wins the U.S. 2008 presidential election. You see, I have two complete albums waiting in the fog. One in the event that Senator Barack Obama wins (Pavement, America, and Good Intentions), and a different album in the event that Senator John McCain wins (Time. But First, Salt.) Since the election is Tuesday, November 4, the zipped album will be posted Thursday, November 6, 2008, whichever it turns out to be.

What will happen to The Blue Testament, you ask? Some of its selections have been reimagined and/or divided between both albums, other stuff from the Blue Testament will have to wait til 2009. For the billions of you who hadn't heard of The Blue Testament, it was basically gonna be Dirty South Hiphop the way I do it. Grounded in the southern Blues, Gospel and even some fiddlin' that the southeastern US is legendary for. The way it should be done. Nothin like you're used to.

I have posted a selection from one of the November 6 albums in the basement and in the music player below, called INFILTRATION. This is a sobering joint that has an interesting punchline (or kick in the kidney) at the end, that any undecided voters you know of should pay serious attention to.


FACTS DON'T MATTER IS HERE!

The wait is over. FACTS DON'T MATTER, the cd/album/download is now available, at Daylight On Demand exclusively. As promised FACTS DON'T MATTER is, I believe, the most Hiphop, the most political, the most listenable, the hardest, the smartest, and most ignored album of this young 21st century. Thanks all for your attention and patience, download and share freely, and of course a donation of whatever you would like is still appreciated. Peace!

AVAILABLE IN 2008!

The After School Special, Facts Don't Matter, and The Blue Testament

As many of you know, the driving idea behind this site is to serve musical documentation of current events in a digestible musical form. That musical form is hiphop which, despite what you may have heard, has a strong tradition of community and political consciousness. It's in the name: HIP meaning relevant, up-to-date and in-the-know. HOP referring to everything from dancing to actual activism. Hopefully this site is insightful, inspirational and enjoyable to you the listener.

Totally different from anything you'll hear on a radio station. Daylight on Demand is homemade, sustainable hiphop not co-opted by corporate interests or shareholders. My philosophy towards making beats involves hiphop based on the original intent of PEACE, LOVE, UNITY AND HAVING FUN. Radio rap, strip club rap and stuff like that tend to over-emphasize the "having fun" part. I feel some of those songs but I bring the balance of the other elements: peace, love and unity, and we put that on the table for the people.

Daylight on Demand also has my non-political joints that just sound good turned up loud, but all music here can be downloaded for free and bumped this summer anywhere good noise is appreciated.

My current suggestions are... everything! For gushing compliments, complaints that this is anti-American propaganda, or happy new year wishes, get at me: HaveNCredible

The Curious Comment

In a November 2, 2007 interview with Sir David Frost on Al-Jazeera television, the late Ms. Benazir Bhutto (assassinated December 26, 2007), stated that Osama bin Laden was murdered by someone who associated with extremists who posed an imminent threat to her also. The person she named was sentenced to death in 2002 for the murder of journalist Daniel Pearl, so if the allegation is true, the murder of bin Laden happened prior to that February 2002 arrest. See the 15 minute interview for yourself or listen to Mike Malloy, who broke the story. Listen to my remix of the interview and his commentary in the jukebox (The Curious Comment) and ponder for yourself if the War on Terrr™ is disaster capitalism or not.
