Reggie Saunders Q&A: It’s All About Influence
July 21st, 2010 · I Just Met...
People often throw around the term “tastemaker.” But when you’re rubbing elbows with and putting your product in the hands wof A-list artists and athletes alike, it fits. And when you do it so well, that you get a check for it, they call it “influencer marketing.”
As the Director of Influence of Marketing for Jordan Brand, Reggie Saunders takes pictures with Dwayne Wade and collaborates on projects with artists like Eminem. It was not an easy leap to the top for Saunders, though. I spoke to the forward-thinking executive about he got here, the importance of forming relationships and why it can be important to zig when everyone else zags.

Praying for Guru

Hearing about Guru of Gangstarr’s current health condition immediately made me think about the first time I unintentionally met the legendary Boston MC.
Nikki & Rich x Highline Ballroom
February 24th, 2010 · Music To My Ears
I had the pleasure of checking out new Warner Bros act Nikki & Rich a few weeks ago and I was not disappointed. I guess I should also explain that I rarely have the desire to go to shows anymore so the fact that I actually went (based solely on the fact that I loved their EPK — check it below) AND enjoyed the show is saying something.

Wholetrain: Germany Goes Graff
February 15th, 2010 · The Box Office
I was feeling a little alliteral this afternoon. Anyway, if you’re in the NY tri-state area tomorrow (Feb. 16) and you like graffiti, Germans, indie flicks or a combination of the two, then you should check out a FREE screening of Wholetrain.

Citizen Cope's "Healing Hands"
February 9th, 2010 · Music To My Ears
No sarcasm for this post. Just wanted to share some good music. I am going to try and do that more (no promises re: sarcasm). Citizen Cope is back. I have been a fan of his since he dropped his self-titled debut in 2002 and recently put some new people on to him. Well, he’s got a new album, The RainWater LP, out digitally today (Feb. 9). The first single is murky yet funky “Healing Hands” (listen below). You can thank me later.

Who Needs TV Journalism 101?
January 28th, 2010 · Why Did I Watch That?
If you didn’t know, I love all things British… save for the food, dental hygiene and football. My kind of football is played on Sunday with pads. Anyway, I do love the BBC and British comedies. Check out Brit journalist/comedian Charlie Brooker’s take on what makes a great TV news story here.
