Silver Linings

WARNING: This post is not business related. It's a positive rant.

As we hit December, it occurred to me that although this year was tragic on many levels, I was able to focus on content and culture more than anytime in my life, and with that discover incredible creativity from all mediums. I wanted to share some highlights from creators that have both entertained and inspired me with their work (3 seemed like a magic number). Hopefully you'll find something of interest, but more importantly add your personal list in the comments and we can all crowd-source a kick ass Best of 2020 List! After all, without a live setting, the "share" is the new applause!

Music

Liane La Havas wow, what a talent, and bonus Radiohead cover

Joey Alexander close your eyes, he's a teen jazz savant

Koffee the best vibes, are always Jamaican

Books

Boy Swallows Universe if you can't get to Australia, this is a twisted Aussie tale

The one Swipe right to Match your DNA

When Breath Becomes Air Not 2020, but what a story, both tragic and inspiring

Shows

The Good Lord Bird (Showtime) Ethan Hawke and cast just leveled up, best performance of the year

How to Sell Drugs Online, Fast (Netflix) Fun kids story about German kids, having fun

The Boys (Amazon) You probably all saw this Superhoes gone rogue, but have to give credit to the writing, too good.

Fast Follow

Joshua Weissman (chef) Not the most healthy, but you'll learn how to cook stuff

Aron the Bassist (10 year old Bassist) He should have been born in 1970, the expressions are priceless

Hebru Brantley (Ilustrator) Love cartoon art, see cover image :)

To 2021, stay safe and let's all celebrate creativity!
