So what's going on in BRM land this weekend?  Well, besides celebrating two great reviews on Pitchfork (Tokyo Police Club 7.6, and Wye Oak 7.2), we are getting pumped up for the Tony's and the World Cup (or as we know it at BRM, the Tony's of Soccer)!  Can we be excited about both these events at the same time?  Of course we can!  I mean, who wouldn't be excited to see Secretly Canadian artists the BLK JKS perform last night at the World Cup Opening Ceremony with none other then Alica Keys!  Yup...  and I'm going to run a licensing business when I grow up.  So yeah the The BLK JKS are all about ZOL, the super soccer stars jam they recorded that features the lyrics "I can roll and shoot at the same time”

Here's ZOL:

...and who isn't all about performing with Alicia Keys:


Back to where the serious competition is the real Tony's?  As you know we've been working with the legendary Fela Kuti for awhile now.  This of course leads BRM back home to BROADWAY, where Fela! is nominated for a kazillion Tony's.  Who isn't going to glued to their tv's watching the Tony's sunday? Where is my Tony's betting poll? Let's get it on!  Here's a clip of Broadway Fela:

and Mr. Fela himself:

enjoy!
