What’s up, everybody! Here are JETLAG RADIO 265 & BENKYO RADIO 265. I’ve also included LAMBDA/QUANTUM/GT/TECHNO RADIO 060

We are in mid-March. We are only 1 1/2 months away from May, and the vaccine will be available to every American. This is huge news. I haven’t been able to hug some family/friends in a very long time, so it means a lot.

I have a message for Afrojack, in 2014, he played “ID - What You Want (Unknown) on JACKED Radio - Week 09 (2014). Do you have a plan to release this track? I really like it. You also made a remix for a Katy Perry song (This Is How We Do) a long time ago, but never officially released it, please do if you can, it was really good. Thanks.

The Grammys are insulting The Weeknd even though he should win “Album of the Year.” This goes back to an old blogpost I wrote, remember, Hollywood and the Music industry does this often. They build an artist, and then they destroy them. They did to Britney Spears, and they’re trying to do it to The Weeknd. Well, it’s bullshit, and The Weeknd explained himself during his Half-Time Show at the Superbowl. Music is about the musicians, not a bunch of “pretty-looking-plastic-surgery” people. This was going to be the first year where a black man would have won major big awards, and they ruined it. I talk a lot about Mental Health because it’s important, and the way the Industry is trying to cancel The Weeknd is unforgivable. I will be listening to The Weeknd today. Check out his latest compilation, “The Highlights.” Don’t lose sleep over quarrels, Abel, it’s a path to self-destruction. I know the feeling. Keep working on your music. Your past albums were good, your new album is 10 times greater. You already destroyed the competition, just imagine what your next album will bring.

If you didn’t believe in DOGECOIN just yet, remember that first Stimulus Check last year for $1,200? If you had immediately invested in Doge, that same check would now be worth $34,000. Isn’t that crazy? It is imperative that you research in the platform. Dogecoin is extremely attractive. Look into it.

I am eager for many of my friends in the Military for an end to the longest war, the one in Afghanistan. Please understand that we are fighting the “Military-Industrial-Complex.” Remember an old blogpost, the reason why other countries do military parades and America is not, it’s very simple. America is not weak. America has weapons that can annihilate pretty much just about anything. But, with these weapons come big responsibility. There is still an ISIS threat, but it is severely diminished. We have a much bigger threat to worry about, and that’s White Nationalism. We can’t keep going to war destroying everything. Please focus on Education. The students of Afghanistan want to get an education, they don’t care about old bearded men with old backward thinking. A woman is allowed to get an education. She is allowed to have a few children. In the year 2021, no woman need to be pregnant over 10 times. This is just ridiculous. And women, in those tough communities only trust other women, and who can blame them? They have been poorly treated. That’s why we need women in the military in high ranks, they can come with innovating ways to fight many battles. There are too many soldiers who are tired. They want to go home. Their families are waiting. Let’s make it happen in May 2021. We must come up with innovating ways for young men to want to get an education, and not join radical groups. That’s why education is always important.

Until next time!
