FuseBox Radio Broadcast for the Week of March 16, 2011 | BlackRadioIsBack.com - Official Blog of the Syndicated FuseBox Radio Broadcast!
This is the latest episode of the syndicated FuseBox Radio Broadcast with DJ Fusion & Jon Judah for the week of March 16, 2011 with some new and classic Hip-Hop & Soul Music, news and commentary.
Our extended commentary this week focused on the tragic situation in Japan due to it's recent earthquake + tsunami, passing & impacts of music artists Nate Dogg (major part of the West Coast "G-Funk" Hip-Hop era with his singing, hooks, etc.), reggae artist Smiley Culture, Mark Adams (bassist for Funk/R&B group Slave) and electronic synthesizer visionary Tsutomu Katoh (founder of Korg) along with some more diverse topics here and there.
This week we had a great extended interview with long-time entertainment industry executive Paul Porter of Industry Ears (http://www.IndustyEars.com), a consortium of entertainment and broadcast industry professionals with more than 60 years of experience dedicated to revealing truth and promoting justice in media.
Some of the topics that we touched base on included the consolidation of all media outlets & how that effects the entertainment + information the masses get, what's REALLY the deal with 'net neutrality, what media outlets are truly "black owned" in the mainstream, the politics of the music industry behind the scenes, the importance of the Black Entertainment community getting into media policy issues and lots more!
Due to our extended interview, new Black Agenda Report, Free Press "Media Minutes" and Black University Radio Network and (B.U.R.N.) Direct EFX segments will be on next week's syndicated FuseBox Radio Broadcast episode.
