I highly recommend binge-watching Electric Dreams. You will thoroughly enjoy the Amazon Original by Phillip K. Dick. It is a very entertaining series from the start. The anthology is a collection of intriguing episodes sparking your imagination. This blog post will review the first episode called ‘Real Life.’

In episode 1, Anna Paquin’s character and Terrence Howard’s character share a virtual fantasy world together where they live out each other’s lives in ‘Electric Dreams.’ Anna Paquin is a lesbian policewoman and Terrance Howard is a Tech billionaire. They visual another world- one futuristic and the other modern day. Anna Paquin lives in the future, and Terrence Howard lives in 2012.

Through these virtual headsets and microchips they’re able to connect with each other. In other words, there are two worlds on a collision course. Unfortunately, in both worlds they suffer tragedies. Howard’s character loses his wife and Paquin’s character ultimately enters a coma.

It is not a coincidence that the two main characters share the same lover. The episode reveals many connections such as the same scenery. As the story unfolds, you’ll find familiar places and similar scenarios.

The setting takes place in futuristic and present day Chicago. It revolves around ‘real life’ and science. Technology is a major theme. Moreover, how technology connects us and divides us is explored.

The actors did an amazing job. Every detail was well thought out and the cinematography was incredible. Give credit to the director and producers.

Finally, the episode warns people about the pitfalls of virtual reality. On the one hand, virtual reality is good because it’s an escape mechanism. They call it a vacation. On the other hand, virtual reality is bad because it ultimately leads to disconnection.

Electric Dreams explores the dynamics of society in multiple ways. In the future, we have flying cars and holograms but less compassion. Still, in both worlds, we need more compassion.

The Weeknd Is the $92 Million Man

Lately, The Weeknd has been on my playlist.  I can’t stop listening to I Can’t Feel My Face. Who else feels me? Faced with a choice between the Weeknd and Bruno Mars… I’m going with the former, right now. Speaking of the ‘former,’ doesn’t the Starboy remind you of the artist formerly known as Prince?

The Weeknd lives life in the Hills. He lives life for the moment… the celebrity vibrantly celebrates life like DJ Khaled. Speaking of the DJ, I can’t wait for the Starboy to make a song with Khaled. I can hear it now… ~ Who are you to judge~

I often say that music is the common denominator. Me and you share the same tastes of music. That’s why you’re reading this blog right now. We can put aside our differences for a moment and discuss entertainment.

Entertainers come in all shapes and sizes, and the Weeknd is an entertainer of massive proportions. He travels around the globe and everybody knows his name. I recall taking a class with a girl who went to his concert the previous day. Although she wasn’t an entertainer, she came in a lovely shape and size if I do say so myself.

Can you believe the Weeknd made $92 million last year? He was working hard like Rihanna. Can you imagine the musician making music with Rihanna? The Weeknd ranks #6 on Forbes Celebrity 100.

He has 2 Grammys to his name, although I expect him to win more in the future. Taylor Swift is another one I would like to see the Weeknd collaborate with in the studio booth. The singers would make an awesome duet together.

Although Bruno Mars came back last year, the Weeknd is still strong. I’m going to a Weeknd concert very soon. You only live once, so live for the moment.

What Taylor Swift song gets you going? Shake It Off, Blank Space, You Belong with Me, and End Game are my favorites. Without question, Taylor Swift’s career has reached a superstardom level and Taylor Swift is a durable brand name.

I believe Taylor Swift is the face of Apple Music. Apple Music needs Taylor Swift’s sound like buttermilk pancakes need buttermilk. Doctors recommend not to skip a healthy breakfast. Gurus recommend not to skip a great Taylor Swift song.

I could listen to Taylor Swift all day long because she has so many hits. She is certified platinum every time she produces a new album. Moreover, she is rewarded for her talent. To date, she has won 10 Grammys.  

Whether you listen to Taylor on Apple Music, Amazon Music, Spotify or VEVO, nothing beats consuming her music. When the singer gets together with producers, they always have the fans on the back of their minds while making beats. Swifties love Taylor Swift because she is something special.

  
Taylor Swift released her End Game video two days ago. I saw it and was amazed. She and Ed Sheeranhave good chemistry. Like Sheeran, Swift is one of the most exciting musicians in the world. I only wish she would make a song with Beyonce.

Taylor Swift is scheduled to perform at the Super Bowl for good reason. All eyes will be on her as she is sure to razzle and dazzle fans around the world. Football and Taylor Swift were made for each other. 

Taylor Swift has a reputation. She is one of the biggest names in music. Plus, she challenges herself to get better. Some music artists stay in the safe lane, but not Taylor. She jumped from country to pop music with purpose. 

It’s easy to see why Taylor Swift is the face of Apple Music. You must respect Taylor Swift because she gives respect. The Urban Legend may very well become a living legend.

Why DJ Khaled Is a Winner

DJ Khaled is a big personality because he has extraordinary ideas. Think about it for a moment. All he does is win…win no matter what! DJ Khaled is undefeated like Floyd Mayweather, Jr. You could say that he is the best musician pound for pound in the music arena.

Plus, the Weight Watchers endorsed celebrity lives a full life. He’s always celebrating life and being positive. You could tell him something horrible happened and he would find the silver lining. Nothing keeps him down. Moreover, he finds a way to become excited.

DJ Khaled is a winner because he recognizes winning is priority number 1. The family man is more than a father figure. He’s a happy father, who always features his son at events. Without question, the celebrity is larger than life.

Have you been following his Snapchat? Before Snapchat was ‘the thing’, DJ Khaled made a major impact on the social media platform. The DJ took his social game to the next level.

Nowadays, you can find him on The Four as a judge alongside Diddy and Meghan Trainor. The show is hosted by Fergie too. One thing I like about DJ Khaled is that he gives thanks to God. And he’s made music with Chance the Rapper.

You should listen to Shining, Don’t Quit, and I Love You So Much. He produces music like an architect, who designs buildings. The DJ’s lyrics remind me of a trial lawyer using clever rhetoric to win his closing arguments. No one can deny his creativity.

He gives his songs personality. You won’t find a better album than ‘Grateful’ by DJ Khaled. Every song feels like a masterpiece.

His music reaches millions of people. He’s done work with Beyoncé, Justin Bieber, Rihanna, Lil Wayne, Nicki Minaj and more. Plus, he’s breaking records all the time. DJ Khaled is taking over!

Joe Rogan is one of the most interesting characters in the Non-Marvel Universe we call life. He’s kind of like the Dos Equis guy but without the long gray beard. In other words, he is a true Renaissance Man. Moreover, he kicks butt in more ways than one… through comedy and martial arts.

Just give him a microphone and watch him go. I often find myself listening to his podcasts and watching his comedy specials. Rogan gives everybody something to think about with his unique twist on life.

He has a style about him that makes listeners want more. I have followed Joe Rogan for years. I remember when he was hosting the Fear Factor. I used to watch that show every week.

Joe Rogan is the Renaissance Man of Entertainment because he’s on the cutting edge of popular culture. His podcasts keep you informed. I appreciate his insights.

He cares about being healthy and happy. At the end of the day, all you have is your health and happiness. That’s why I respect Joe Rogan because he champions health and happiness. Plus, he lives a full life.

You should watch his podcasts on YouTube when you get the chance. You’ll find dozens if not hundreds of videos that will entice your ears and eyes. Joe Rogan delivers everything you need.

Joe Rogan is interesting because he is a big personality. He’s kind of like Howard Stern’s successor in a way. He knows what to say and how to say it in a big way. He interviews people with a purpose.

Moreover, Rogan always has a message. He doesn’t simply talk to be talking. The 50 year-old has a method to his madness.  He gives you 100 percent every time he speaks on the microphone. If you like entertainment, you will like this entertainer.

Do you love music? What is your favorite song? Who is your favorite musician?

I love music because music comes in all forms. Music can be small, big, and a medium. In Starbucks terminology, it can be Venti. You see music is like coffee.

You can consume music in many ways. In what ways do you listen to music? Maybe, you wear Beats by Dre headphones or earplugs to consume your tastes of expression.

Moreover, music sparks your imagination. I believe your brain activates after gazing at a work of art. Plus, I feel your mind listens to a great audio work of art.

Let’s use our imagination. Albert Einstein said imagination is more important than knowledge. George R.R. Martin used his imagination to create a language called Valyrian in the Game of Thrones. When you combine Albert Einstein and George R.R. Martin with music, you get Imagine Dragons.

Have you heard of Imagine Dragons? Lately, the Las Vegas rock band has been gaining in popularity. What Game of Thrones is to cable TV, Imagine Dragons is to premium music.

If you have Imagine Dragons on your playlist, consider yourself privileged. Their music is amazing. Their lyrics are transformative.

Furthermore, Imagine Dragons are like the particle physicists of sound. You see these musicians pay attention to every detail while recording music in the studio booth. 

While watching the AMAs on TV, I first came across an Imagine Dragons performance. I’m looking forward to watching more of the band’s performances in the future. The band members connected with the spirit.

Finally, who can deny the creativity of the Imagine Dragons? Like Carlos Santana, the rock band creates creative sounds for a living. Plus, they generate electric music like Calvin Harris.

Are you an Imagine Dragons fan? What is your favorite Imagine Dragons song? Chime in your comments.

How Star Wars Characters Give Us Life
What do you like most about the Star Wars franchise? Who are your favorite characters? I believe the best part of Star Wars are the characters. The characters give life and meaning to American popular and World culture.
Ever since I can remember, Luke Skywalker has been a hero in the Star Wars universe. Do you remember playing with Yoda and Darth Vader action figures? Remember when every girl wanted to be Princess Leia for Halloween. The characters were so dynamic and they are amazingly evolving to this day.
And so the story goes, George Lucas sold his film rights to Disney and a series of new Star Wars movies emerged. It began with the highly anticipated Star Wars: The Force Awakens in 2015directed by J.J. Abrams. Do you remember how the Force Awakens broke every box office record in the book.
And the next one, simply marketed as A Star Wars Story, was Rogue One starring Felicity Jones. The film received critical praise and collected over $1 billion from movie goers.
On December 15, Star Wars: the Last Jedi debuts in theaters around the world. Fans are excited to see Mark Hamil reprise his role as Luke Skywalker. I’m looking forward to seeing the Last Jedi. It has a great trailer which aired for the first time during the World Series yesterday.
Through the years I’ve come to love science fiction and fantasy movies. I’m drawn by the mystery and suspense. These are my favorite science fiction and fantasy actresses.
Have you ever wanted to compare Star Wars and Star Trek? Check out this cool comparison of Star Wars Vs. Star Trek. I’ll do a Stardust story some time soon if you’re interested.
I say all this to say that the Star Wars series is as American as the World Series (baseball). The Star Wars franchise is here to stay. Plus, it is the characters that give us life.
