Brothers and sisters, your prayers have been answered! Your daily messages have been read, understood, and action has been taken! DAVID GOGGINS RETURNS TO THE MEANINGWAVE UNIVERSE!
Everyone’s favorite soul-snatcher is currently on tour promoting his new book, Never Finished (https://geni.us/NeverFinished), leading to a slew of instant classic podcast appearances, and the SECOND I heard him on JRE #1906 (https://open.spotify.com/episode/69QtiFgM7HP4mK2yZPKiut?si=6ce8e42d7aeb4710&nd=1) spitting the first lines of what would become this new song (https://go.meaningwave.com/UNACCEPTABLE)…
“I was FAT… ‘swhy I talk about it… go ahead say something motherfucker I was fat too!”
…as soon as those epic bars caressed my ears, the whole thing, music, beats, the very fucking hi hats - appeared in my head, and I stopped everything I was doing, and executed the record there and then, before that inspiration could be diluted by so-called real life.
And so here it is, the first new Meaningwave Goggins banger since 2020’s The Real Merry Fuckin’ Christmas. (https://fanlink.to/RealMerryChristmas)
