A-side Worldwide podcast

14KT, Buff1, DJ Haircut (aka Mayer Hawthorne) and Jax, all members of the A-Side Worldwide team, came through through the HVW8 Gallery for a live podcast session. The connection between Michigan and Los Angeles continues to strengthen and if you weren’t up on A-Side before now, you’ll be a solid supporter after this set. Enjoy!

Time to change!

It’s been a really hectic couple weeks with the election and the Nu America party. People ask why I’m I so supportive about Obama when I’m a Canadian and can’t even vote in the U.S. Well the short answer — it’s pretty amazing! Since I have lived in the U.S., people living outside the U.S. would always criticize America and its politics. It was deserved, but at the same time the Bush administration and his policies didn’t represent the America I know and live. Now you have Obama — and only in America could you have such a amazing almost instant transformation stemming from a individual with such massive ramifications. I feel that America is “Good” again, and with everything that has been happening with the world economy and events, it demonstrates how inter-connected the world is. What is good for here is good for the world. Go bama!
