The Announcement…
“Gotta want what you dream, and dream what you want. Gotta love what you do, and do what you love.” - Mause.
Take a second to get a visual of the 1980’s. You may see neon colors, big hair from Rock Stars, Hip Hop blossoming, Reaganomics, etc. But for young Mickey Mause, all he saw was…
Honestly… we can’t wait to release this album. With The Pregame… it was kind of just a thing we did with no plans in mind… just a sort of flier we passed out to the world that said “Hey, we’re Jupiter Jim and JO… we rap. You should listen.” With Hello Forever… the approach has been completely different. We don’t want it to be something people exclusively pregame to. Hello Forever is literally us saying to the world “Hello Forever.” It’s both an album title and a reflection of what we are currently doing. It’s been more than the music. So many hours, so much sacrifice has been put into this record. While The Pregame was just a flier… Hello Forever is completely, irrevocably us. Irrevocably The Pro Letarians.
As seen in the documentary: What Ever Happened to Hip-Hop, which I am now watching. You can too: here.
It began with the beat of the drum. With the beat, came a voice for those without one. From this voice, came a movement. Overcoming the odds, the originators of hip hop took their music from block parties of New York City streets to world wide radio waves. During the early years, the music and message reached new heights by exploring humanity, politics, and street life, while keeping it real and having fun. But what ever happened to hip hop? Currently the most pervasive music worldwide, its roots have been forgotten, its message perverted. With hip hop in the spotlight, it’s time to put it back on track. This documentary presents views from hip hop founders, contributors, and artists in an attempt to return its audience to the four principles: Peace, Love, Unity, and Having Fun.
