Personally, I'm the type who could care less about Valentines Day besides the chocolate treats, my dear BlackRadioIsBack.com & the FuseBox Radio Broadcast folks, but I do always love quality Black Music (corny segue, but I'm tired and so it stays).

We've gotten some pretty fly Love/Valentine's Day related downloads, videos and mixtapes on the Hip-Hop and Soul Music ends of the Black Music Spectrum for folks to check out, so sit back, relax, burn a CD for your loved one/significant other/"friend" and enjoy!

Tony Williams Introduces "Everything About You" Music Video from Tony Williams on Vimeo.

First off, we have the single and video from Soul Music singer and songwriter Tony Williams from his upcoming GOOD Music release, King or The Fool called "Everything About You".

After having a listening session after an interview with Mr. Williams (coming to the FuseBox Radio Broadcast this month) of the release during Inaugaration Weekend (the album is INSANELY on point and better come out on time), I have no problem at all saying that this brother's talent is going to have him on someone's Top 10 list by the time this year is over.

Next up, we have the I Heart Mixtape by producer and remixer Diwon of Shemspeed Records.

Diwon's musical influences come directly from his family's roots in Yemen, Ethiopia, and Israel as well as his travels throughout the world while his family traveled with their Navy service.

This mix includes songs from all over the world focused on Love as well as his own productions, with artists in that vibe including Buju Banton, Blur, Smokey Robinson, The Concretes, Cat Power, Finley Quaye,Anounshka Shankar and more!

It's a pretty nice, eclectic mix of work - check it out and let us know what's good.

This is the latest episode of the syndicated FuseBox Radio Broadcast with DJ Fusion & Jon Judah for the week of February 11, 2009 with some new and classic Hip-Hop & Soul Music, news and commentary.

This week's commentary focused on the issue of domestic violence (brought up due to the current Chris Brown/Rihanna controversy), PETA trying to relate dog breeding to the KKK & a "master race" metaphor (yeah, no sense at all), why Black History can't be depended on to be taught by mainstream media and some other things here and there.



We had the honor of interviewing R&B Music artist Ron Patterson (http://www.RonPatterson.com) on this weeks show, where our conversation ranged on everything from his background, the pidgeonholing of Black Music artists in the U.S., the many aspects music business as an independent artist, how the international community regards Black Music and more!

Due to our interview, we did not have new Black Agenda Report and Direct EFX segments this week.

Feel free to check out some recent episodes of the syndicated FuseBox Radio Broadcast here on BlackRadioIsBack.com - all of the shows are clean/radio friendly.
