Momma, I’m On The B.B.C. Again (Mary Anne Hobbs Radio 1 Exclusive)
Wednesday, November 19th, 2008-
OK.. so they’ve played a lot of my stuff on the BBC before. (Large Up Bobby Friction) Maybe I shouldn’t get so excited, right?… WRONG. I will always be thrilled, dammit…, because they don’t necessarily HAVE to do it. From what I am hearing, Ghislain gave Mary Anne Hobbs the copy personally. Nicenessss all de while.

Anyway Children, I have realized…
..that I am an artist who does NOT come from a “scene”.. like Houston Tx. (even tho my momma from Tx.), The red hot FLA scene, Jamaica, NYC, or Great Britain.
Chicago is a really a collection of assorted scenes… none big enough for locals to immediately attract a CROWD.D.D, unless they do cheezy cover tunes. (Red Red Wine, my ass… , so many audiences… , cursed tha fk out, with a smile) Hey.. I love you, but wise up!
It is therefore my responsibility to cultivate my own fan base. I cannot simply do ‘my thing’. I must also let you know how it is making an impact worldwide… or it could seem like ‘no big deal’, and we can’t have that.
Already, I have touched each of the afforementioned “scenes” (and many more) in various ways; and I will do so again…. only this time.. I am keeping track
