Time Warp...1973 :: Living for the City x Stevie Wonder


Circa 1973.

...his patience long, but soon he won't have any.
....I hope you hear inside my voice of sorrow...
...this place is cruel, nowhere could be much colder.  

 I had just returned home from a grocery run Saturday before last only to discover a grocery store in Buffalo was shot up, specifically targeting and killing our people.  The thought alone was and is all around terrifying.  Here we are, just a little over a week later... feeling the grief of yet another mass shooting; this time targeting kids.  
I stay silent on a lot of sh-t, quiet as kept... word to Trademark da Skydiver.  Constantly watching MADNESS unravel in your community and throughout the country, while trying to keep a level head above water in your own personal life is exhausting.  Disconnecting into a drift of musical bliss has always been an outlet.  When folk refer to 'timeless music', this is a prime example.  Almost 50 years later and the relevancy of the lyrics is still there.  Gazing off...
