    “Crawl” (Trailer) & Key West Film Festival – details via @lisafordblog

    Lisa Ford / November 23, 2019

    Ok so a giant alligator coming to eat people during a hurricane may not scare you, but scenarios like this scare the hell out of me! I’ve lived through many hurricanes and can’t imagine having to worry about a giant man-eating alligator on top of everything else you go through to survive a wild storm. Crawl is a great film brought to you by the same Producer of Evil Dead and Don’t Breathe, Sam Raimi, as well as Craig Flores and Alexandre Aja. Crawl was…

    Lisa Ford / November 20, 2019

    DaBabby bringing out the Jabbawockeez in his new well choreographed video is an instant Win. Take notice, the entire dance sequence was one continuous shot. DaBaby has worked hard to take over 2019. Dababy running around in his own video acting like an extra is pure comedy 😂💀 Lisa Ford’s crime novella, South Beach Suicide, on sale now at Amazon.

    KURT COBAIN – Rare Footage of One of His Final Interviews (Video) via @lisafordblog #FBF

    Lisa Ford / November 8, 2019

    This is possibly the best interview I have ever seen. Nirvana’s Kurt Cobain is authentic. He is not trying to think of witty things to say, to make an impression, to control the viewer’s reaction, which is the CONVENTIONAL way to give an interview. He does listen. His answers aren’t rehearsed. Authenticity is so rare, crucial to the ability to make authentic art. It’s hard to believe Kurt existed at one point in time. He’s almost like a mystical figure. He got really popular overnight…

    Lisa Ford / November 8, 2019

    This song has never left my soul since watching TROYMAN’s performance on the grand finale of Netflix’s Rhythm & Flow. I had to find Streetlight on YouTube and keep it on replay because TROYMAN KILLED IT!  The fact he barely had any time to get ready for this challenge only to come out and still murder it is impressive. His energy, his flow, his voice, the rhythm with the beat, the swag he brought, was a real live performance.  Troyman catches people’s attention while throwing…

    Lisa Ford / November 7, 2019

    So I’ve been watching Netflix’s Rhythm & Flow for a few days now and I have to say that I’m pleasantly surprised. I’m not usually into music competition shows because a lot of times, talented people get eliminated for frivolous reasons which makes it all a hard watch for me. However, the Rhythm & Flow series is nice because the judges; T.I., Chance The Rapper, and Cardi B, are a dynamic trio who truly brings something special to a music competition show. It’s apparent that…

    Who remembers going to go see Bad Boys 1 when it first came out back in 1995? The Bad Boys movie franchise is still the most badass thing even today. What you got with the precious two films was great acting, great action, and great scripts. Who would’ve thought that two comedic actors like Will Smith and Martin Lawrence could be such great action stars. We’re so looking forward to the 3rd film Bad Boys For Life to be released to complete the trilogy. Sony…

    Al Pacino Did not come to play in this new Amazon Prime original series Hunters executive produced by Oscar-winner Jordan Peele.  Take a peek at this brief first look that reveals a lot but also leaves much to the imagination.  “This is not murder,” says Pacino, who’s shown drawing an “X” through a photograph of an SS uniform-clad Nazi. “This is mitzvah.”     The show is set in 1970s New York, and will also star How I Met Your Mother’s Josh Radner, Logan Lerman from the Percy…

    Gorgon City put on a masterpiece of a performance during Coachella 2019 and we simply fell in love with the band after that incredible live show. The UK duo, consisting of Kye Gibbon and Matt Robson-Scott, have developed a huge international presence garnering over 700+ million combined streams to date, and playing to enormous crowds around the world. They are also well known for our favorite, their 2014 single “Ready for Your Love”, a revival of that 90’s Crystal Waters’ “Gypsy Woman” era in American…
