Ini Kamoze celebrated by creating “Here Comes The Hotstepper”...a song that almost became the Jamaican version of “This Is How We Do It”. When I first heard “Welcome To Jamrock” I got scared for a minute but then I looked up in the sky and saw a rainbow which reminded me of the pact God made with Man...

Getting stuck in your head (Original Signal)

Wed, 23 Jan 2008 17:44:05 GMT

That's what great marketing and great ideas do. They get stuck. This song from Ini Kamoze just won't leave my brain (and if you listen once, you've only got yourself to blame.) The video is lame, but the song is absolutely perfect if the goal is to spread the hook.Authors and bloggers try to do the same thing. I did a talk yesterday with Chris Anderson, Tim Ferris and John Jantsch. I hope it...

At Least Its Not An STD (Yeah... I Said It)

Wed, 02 Jan 2008 20:40:15 GMT

My foot/ankle is swollen like Aretha Franklin's breasts right now. When I put pressure on it to walk, I feel a sharp pain, as if I just got shot by a flaming arrow from some medieval archer’s bow. I went outside to get my mail a little while ago, and I actually saw Ini Kamoze standing on my corner, singing “Here come the Hot-stepper!” as he saw me limp to the mailbox.
