Jimmy (Drake) Isn’t the Only Degrassi Character Making Music

Cassie Steele and Mike Lobel have joined together to make some semi decent music. They’ve only posted two songs on her youtube channel thus far and are in search of a good name for their band. At first I figured she’d just be yet another pretty face who felt “why not sing I got nothing else to do” but after the first few seconds she gets her voice together and you can hear the potential. I kind of like this song great lyrics.

Hometown Love: Young Miz


He labels his sound Urban Eclectic and feels that every new artist needs Substance, Character and Charisma. Young Miz (born in Cleveland relocated to Atlanta GA) is an underdog who puts everything into his music. In our interview he discusses his projects The Lay Over and Misery Music: 13 Theories Of Therapy. I’m anxious to hear both! Check out his music and his interview with me after the jump!

Most people, after the first glance of the tracklisting will probably assume this is just another playlist thrown together of love songs and in a sense, it is. However, this mixtape is a collection of love songs you workout too. I know. I know. You’re doing a double take at the tracklist going, “Gwanzo, the only song I could possibly work out to is the Lupe Fiasco and is the one of the Lupe Fiasco’s a typo?” I understand the confusion and no it’s not a typo. I personally cannot listen to hype or “crunk” music when I workout and to keep me from thinking about how long I been on this machine or how long I have to go until I finish this mile, a good movie playing in my head distracts me. Also the hyper music makes me lose my stride. My body can’t ever figure out what rhythm to follow, it’s own or the beat to the music. Once the confusion starts, it’s downhill.

However, with this tracklist I can lose myself in a love story. The hypeness that surrounds the energy of Her when she’s out and about minding her business which is “I’m Beaming” which follows by a love at first sight meeting (“What If I Kissed You”), all the way to the first time Her and her lover made love  (“In The Middle”) to the part where it starts to crumble (“Is it?”) and she loses her mind (“I’ll Kill Her”), and to where her healing begins (“Bittersweet”) and when she gets surround by the warmth of her old energy (“I’m Beaming”).

This is for the people who walk down the street listening to their iPods pretending to be in a music video having flashbacks of love scenes that may or may not have happened and explosive break ups that now get to end in the way you wish they could have. This is for the people who have to have a soap opera to lose themselves in and to distract them from the gruesome walk/run back to the place that they started (Is it me or is it always harder to walk/run back from a destination?).

This is different and unique so if you want to add a little something to your workout this is it! (How homo of me.)
