RING THE ALARM! NEW GOGGINS MEANINGWAVE DROPPED! NOT A DRILL! NEW! GOGGINS! MEANINGWAVE! DROPPED!
(https://go.meaningwave.com/BOBBLEHEADS)

This is one of those fortuitous, spur-of-the-moment, had the phone rang or something it wouldn’t have existed type joints…

As you know, I have Meaningwave projects planned out years in advance, but I always allow a little wiggle room for The Striking Of Inspiration. I was working on one of those scheduled albums not long ago and had set one of the tracks to render, taking the opportunity of a few moments of free time to answer some Instagram DMs.

I never made it to the DMs. At the top of my feed was a David Goggins video (https://www.instagram.com/p/CqRJKJ0LafO/), one of those ones where he’s running and delivering some righteous sermon or other. They’re always great. I unmuted the video, watched it, and instantly heard the whole song in my head, as it unfolded before me. With some subjects, finding the inherent melody and rhythm in the spoken word can sometimes take a little time, but with Goggins, it is always instant. He speaks only in pure uncut ready-to-roll BANGERS.

Incidentally, I just picked up my phone to get the link to that aforementioned video from Insta. And guess what was at the top of my feed? A new Gogins video (https://www.instagram.com/reel/Cvvy6ezLmXO/?igshid=MzRlODBiNWFlZA%3D%3D). That there is what they call synchronicity. A sign that you are on the path. Walking with Allah, as Malcolm X put it.

Enjoy this fine new Meaningwave banger, dear reader. The music video drops Monday. Then hold tight for ANOTHER new single, from another Meaningave superstar, next week. You’re gonna love it, I just know.

OK, I gotta go find my son something to wear at my little brother’s wedding tomorrow. He’s been made a viscount, and will be engaged in some ceremonial aspect of the, um, ceremony… So I need to find him something suitably swaggy. Luckily, I am smack bang in the center of Copenhagen, where it seems one could close one’s eyes, spin around, fire a grenade launcher, and hit a swaggy clothing retailer of some sort.

May the road rise with you, Meaningwave enjoyed!

LOVE! TO! YOU! AND! YOUR! FAMILY!

Hold tight for I’M MAD AS HELL AND I’M NOT GOING TO TAKE IT ANYMORE (https://go.meaningwave.com/MADASHELL) hitting DSPs tonight, and thanks for all the kind words about that song and music video that dropped earlier this week (https://linktw.in/vSKzKH). Look out for more surprises in the Meaningwave Universe, and look out for a brand new MEANINGWAVE ...

I'M AS MAD AS HELL AND I'M NOT GOING TO TAKE THIS ANYMORE

I don't have to tell you
Things are bad
Everybody knows things are bad
It's a depression…

Finally, it exists. A song I’ve been wanting to make since around 2004 when I first happened upon the source material, 1977’s timely and prophetic dark comedy, Network. A snippet of it nearly went on an early mixtape, then my first album, but ultimately I didn’t do it, as I didn’t want to truncate the sample, and at that time, I was focusing on vocal rap music and had yet to invent Meaningwave, so it wasn’t yet time for a 4-minute plus song with no rapping based around a movie sample.

Early on in the Meaningwave journey, the idea re-presented itself. I could hear it in my head. But I wasn’t skilled enough to bring it into being at that time. So it stayed in my head, and I worked and worked, and song by song developed those skills.

Some six hundred or so songs later, in the year 2024 AD, I was finally able to bring the song I heard in my head into the world.

I’ve been working on this since June, and ...
