THE TIME HAS COME
We are at the crossroads
Of Danger and Opportunity!
Truth has been twisted and
tempers have been tampered with.
A Universal Realignment has commenced,
Our New Vibes require New Vibrations!
“OKAY is the music of that new era.” – A.M.
Music tuned to the Frequency of Nature…
Is in tune with you!
LYRICS
POLITICIANS
Hey, I’m Not Your Everyday Politician, I’m Different.
I Don’t Believe In Politicking,But Listen.
The System’s About To Crash, My Friends,
So I Come With A Grin And A Small List Of Demands.
It Seems We Ran Out Of Money, Again!
And The World’s Gonna End!
You Must Fund Us! My Friends!
Better Yet, If You Elect Me Again…
This Is The Last Time
You’ll See This Happen My Friends!
I’m Gonna Balance This Budget And Then
I’ll Need Nothing From You Again!
Trust Me My Friends!
Until Then, You’ll Complain
And Mumble With Friends
While I’m Off On A Plane…
With A Lobbyist Again.
I’m Not Smiling Because
I Think You’re Dummies, My Friends.
I Think It’s Funny How
I’ll Spend Your Money Again!
I’m Just Your Everyday Politician.
No Different.
I Believe In Division.
So Listen… My Friends!
TEACHERS
These Two Raised Their Hands Again.
I Guess They Have Questions And
I Don’t Know The Answers, Damn
How Should I Address Them?
Maybe Just Ignore Their Gestures.
Yeah, I’ll Recite The Lesson Plan.
Enough Time For Them To Forget Their Questions.
Then I Can Proceed To The Lecture
And Start Programming Them Again With Conjecture.
I Can Relieve Some Pressure After
I Make Them Much Better Standardized Testers.
The System Needs More “Yes-Sirs”
No Room Made For All Of The Questioners.
Can’t Let The Hand-Raisers Mess My Lesson Up.
They Should Say “Okay” Like The Rest Of Us.
The Best Of Us Convince Your
Parents That The Rest Of Us
Can Reach You Better Than The
Teachers That You Choose And Trust.
Right About Now I Have Had Enough.
“I’m The Teacher.
Hand’s Down.
Listen Up!”
Mr432hz
You Say ‘Okay’ To Teachers, And Preachers…
And Politicians That Play Games
While You’re Cheering In The Bleachers.
You Say ‘Okay’ To Bankers.
And In Return They Thank Ya.
And Later Take Away Everything They Gave You.
You Say ‘Okay’ To Governments.
When The Only Thing They’re Governing…
Seriously?!
Is How To Spend Your Funds Again.
You Say ‘Okay’ To Leaders,
That Only Lead The Line
Because You Never Asked “Why?”
You Just Jumped In Behind.
I’ve Been Asked To Lead.
I’m Saying, “People Please,
Read In-Between The Lines
And Then Walk Next To Me.”
I’m Seeking The Best Of We.
It’s My Destiny.
I’m Digging Past The Weeds
And Still Planting All My Seeds.
You Can Try To Stop Me.
Knowledge Is Like Trees.
Lose It You Can’t Breathe.
Give Us, Us Free, Man
Amistad, “Give Us, Us Free!”
Tell The People Anything…
They’ll Believe It.
Make It Look Pretty…
They’ll Receive It.
You Got The World In Your Hands!
Make It Fast!
They’re Buying What You Selling.
Buying What You Selling.

Okay is Born
KAE recorded the vocals to OKAY so long ago that she didn’t even remember it when I played them in June of 2020. On her visit in 2011, we recored OKAY, Born and more. KAE’s vocals kick off the March of Change!
MCKM Pre-Listen
Before MCKM became an album our idea was for it to be a 3-5 song EP. On this day, I held listening parties with dozens of people all over the world.
My Bass Man
Labros reaches out and asks if I were interested in starting a band. My Working Mind was still designing the Vinyl & Artbook. My Creative Mind was ready to expand with purpose. I was excited and determined to make it clear that we would be spear-heading the 432hz Movement.
A Band Is Formed!
Here is a peek into the very beginning of a musical movement. In a few TheCanJam would ignite a flame that continues to burn! Invaluable lessons and exchanges!
Challenge Accepted
I pulled Armand Wallenberg & Labros Lairopoulos aside to present a challenge. The challenge: Produce an album with my vocals from MCKM – before November 5, 2015. They both accepted the challenge. Armand blew my mind away with his Electronic Version. Labros confirmed what I knew was possible all along…
The Digital Album
5 years and 9 countries of creations along with a world of support aided in the creation of MONEY CANT KILL MUSIC. The digital album was produced at 432hz by Brandon “Blue” Hamilton and released on NOV 5, 2015 and presented as a musical called “That Musical-Thingy.”
The Buzz Kicks In
After some time away from performing, Labros moves to Costa Rica so that we may finish MCKM together. We did everything but work on MCKM. Fortunately, we grew thru things that further strengthened our bond and creative chemistry.
#OnThe5th
The push to release one song a month on the 5th of every month began… for the foreseeable future. Maybe this would jolt the spark needed to give MCKM what it needed. Labros and I would be mixing and mastering together, consistently. Hmmm…
The Day Has Come…
it was clear. the echoes in conversations, the mirroring acts of discord, the whispers in search of answers… the world was literally playing out The Story Of Money Cant Kill Music. And it was clear that OKAY would lead the way. Finishing OKAY was my focus now!
OKAY, it’s finished!
After 5 years and an unlimited number of hours in pursuit of perfection, it is done!
Submitted For Distribution
After processing so many considerations, I chose to use the imaging that was purposefully picked for OKAY as displayed in the MONEY CANT KILL MUSIC Art Book.
OKAY – Rejected … Resubmitted
Moments before leaving to visit friends, I receive an email stating that OKAY has been rejected and removed from the submission process. My September 11, 2020 release date is in jeopardy.
Rejected and Resubmitted #3
It’s good to have Patreon as a source for direct shares. There’s an issue with (1) All Caps In The Title: “OKAY”. (2) Adding “432hz” to the release title. (3) Adding Labros’ name to the cover without adding him as a featured artist. “Thrift Shop” had NO names on the..MORE
OKAY’s Pre-Storyboard Script – DONE
Thoughts on the visuals for OKAY have consumed me. Today I Can Celebrate! This is quite a vulnerable share. I do not like sharing things before I am “done” with them. Done doesn’t mean that the project is complete. I am ready… I think!
Preview – OKAY ( Visualizer )
The 1st draft is done. It’s honest. Unassuming Progression. Hign-End Pop Art Pan Like With The Pen The funniest jokes are the truth
