THE THROW BACK SONG OF THE WEEK "BACK IN THE DAY" BY: Ahmad
CIRCA: 1993
Released a little over a decade and a half ago when Ahmad was only 18, the song is a nostalgic remembrance of childhood and young teenage years, from a somewhat jaded adult perspective. "Back in the Day" was Ahmad's only major hit single, making it to #26 on The Billboard Hot 100, #19 on the US R&B chart on the strength of its hook.

"FUNNY, HOW? FUNNY LIKE I'M A CLOWN, I AMUSE YOU?"
THE MARKETING DIRECTOR OR WHOMEVER IS RESPONSIBLE FOR THE RELEASE DATE OF "FUNNY PEOPLE" IS A GENIUS... ATLEAST THIS MOVIE WILL HOLD THE #1 SPOT IN AMERICA FOR ONE WEEKEND!! I SAY THAT ONLY BECAUSE THE MEGA SUMMER BLOCKBUSTER "G.I. JOE THE RISE OF COBRA" IS SET TO RELEASE THE FOLLOWING WEEKEND 8/7/09!!
I HAVE YET TO SEE "FUNNY PEOPLE" BUT INTEND ON DOING SO. THOUGH THIS MOVIE WILL PROBABLY FALL SHORT OF THE EARLY SUMMER COMEDY HIT "THE HANGOVER" IT IS SURE TO HOLD ME OVER FOR ONE MORE WEEK BEFORE I SEE "G.I. JOE" THREE TIMES IN THEATRES!!!
Judd Apatow (The 40 Year Old Virgin, Knocked Up) directs Adam Sandler, Seth Rogen and Leslie Mann in Funny People, the story of a famous comedian who has a near death experience. When superstar George Simmons (Sandler) is diagnosed with a rare form of leukemia, he's forced to re-evaluate his life and begins a friendship with Ira Wright (Seth Rogen), an up-and-coming comic who idolizes George and whom George reluctantly mentors. However, when George learns that his disease has gone into remission and an old flame (Leslie Mann) reenters his life, his recent near death experience inspires him to reevaluate what is important to him and what truly gives meaning to his life.

"WE FLY HIGH, NO LIE... YOU KNOW THIS!!"
What happens when four local guys from the night life scene, known so well for how they get down, are given the opportunity to form a crew whose sole purpose is to pack the night club/ultra lounge or bar and bring out the same intensity of everyone inside that they themselves exude? FLYBOYS Promotions is formed....
More than just another promotion company, we like to consider ourselves trendsetters and crowd movers, with the innate ability to keep the club bangin'! An alliance of four great minds with similar tastes in hip-hop music and fashion, with a non-stop mindset to both influence others, while simultaneously pushing our lifestyle brand to the next level.
Keeping true to our essential elements of music and style, our goal for each of our events is to incorporate DJ's of the highest caliber to keep the hipster kids moving till 2am and beyond, while leaving our mark on the venue, so there will be no mistaking that you've just experienced a FLYBOYS' event.
