Today's play is this album. I remember having this CD as a kid, couldn't believe there were not only so many tracks, but how short the songs were. Such brilliant hits! #music #thebeatles #thebeatlesone

Another great song by Jack White. Fear of the Dawn drops in April, so excited! #jackwhite #fearofthedawn #thirdmanrecords

I've heard a lot of pros and cons recently for artists having their music on Spotify. How do musicians feel about using this platform? #music #streaming #musicians #musicpoll

Just a call back to when David Bowie casually confronted MTV on racism....wonder how their reality shows are doing, being that they no longer do music videos apparently

Taking the Mic is back, I've been very busy recently listening to some great music, speaking to great artists and my new podcast is on the verge of being launched #watchthisspace #music

Got to see #SpiderManNoWayHome last night, what an absolutely mind-blowing film, a lot of great moments. 100% worth a watch!

[Taking the Mic @_takingthemic]

Well....looks very exciting. I admit I've fallen in to that trap of hoping to see "them" but this trailer suggests it could work very well without them...but they COULD turn up https://t.co/cKDZBhlsGP

@Wes_from_TC You know what they should do? They should divide the heroes so that some are working with the government and others are outlawed and then have them fight eachother or something, I wonder who would win between say...Captain America and Iron Man? They should totally do that.

In response to a lot of what's been going on the last few years with comics and films, let me just say this: I don't want political agendas to dictate the plot or characters of a story, I just want a GOOD story without those hindrances #comicbook #films #movies

@NewAgeSpider I heard about this suit and it's as bad as I imagined. I don't understand why they feel the need to make it look like that, if they want to change/improve anything just write better original stories. This is just another way to pull in more readers, another "issue 1" tactic

[Taking the Mic @_takingthemic]

@AhmadChildress @StrawHatRican I recently finished watching Visions and I thought it was quite refreshing to see a different style of storytelling and especially without a lot of the social agendas we got from Disney's trilogy. I think it was good for them to experiment with something different.
