It must be wonderful for those kids in East Yorkshire who have Jeffrey Boakye as a teacher. That comes across very clearly in this book - Boakye is a teacher, through and through. He simplifies but never talks down. He has a way of talking about a subject so passionately that you suddenly feel passionate about it too. That's a real skill, and Boakye has managed to capture it on paper with this book.
Musical Truth is a unique book that could help today’s pupils engage with not just the music of their parents and grandparents, but their histories, experiences and stories. Not only that but there’s an opportunity for pupils to explain their own music as part of a connected and wider social narrative. Now imagine you have some friends that are entitled to the same lustrous and perverted world as you. Over time, you guys begin to feel truly different from normal humans. In fact, you create your own private religion based on materialism, carnal desire and a truly twisted sense of spirituality. You call it Luciferarianism. You praise darkness because you and your ilk, in a sense, exist in darkness. After all, among the hordes, very few even know you exist. Over time, you and your friends begin to cultivate a level of paranoia that you believe is healthy; it keeps you on your toes, looking out for any of the minions that might be getting wise to you and your gang and your disturbing reality - the reality you love. Your paranoia grows. Despite your efforts, more and more from the unwashed mass are figuring out your game. Pupils could create their own “musical truths”– projects that combine music to define their place and space in the world, and words to capture their voice in society.This volume focuses on the way the entertainment industry’s owned assets were used to help push the official narrative of the “Co(n)vid 19” Scamdemic, (which has been rightly described as “The Greatest Scam Ever Perpetrated Upon Mankind.”) So many beloved musicians showed their true colours in helping to push the lies and bad science which paved the way for the tyranny and human enslavement that was always planned to be applied in its wake. Topher Field, creator of the documentary ‘Official Battleground Melbourne’ also does a great job on the current affairs show The Aussie Wire, and had me on to talk about my Australian speaking tour and other matters. These chapters are punctuated by a new feature – Sound Bites – an array of short stories concerning well-known music-makers which further reinforce the assertions made in previous volumes.
Boakye makes for an excellent guide. At times he recalls how the songs impacted him growing up in London and how they shaped his perception of his identity and at other times he paints broader strokes considering how these songs don't just celebrate but also provide vehicles for discussion and tools for resistance. His style and tone is accessible so much so that much of the text would work in Year 6 and certainly in KS3+ with some care around songs that have explicit lyrics. public Wi-Fi - this extends to the majority of our public spaces including the Reading Rooms, as well as our study desks and galleries at St Pancras (you won't require a login) This is a full archive of all my radio and podcast interviews on truth/ conspiracy/ consciousness subjects from 2012 onwards. Most are long-format chats of one or two hours. The shows from 2015 onwards focus on subjects covered in Volumes 1 and 2 of my book Musical Truth. I learned so, so much reading this book. Right from the outset, Boakye reintroduced me to the British Empire and shared a history which I felt pretty ashamed not to know nearly as well as I had thought. Then, progressively, song by song Boakye brings you from 1948 to 2020. A breakdown of “wha gwan” (in the verbiage of ‘Top Boy’) with my various activities at the moment – my recent home move (again!); my upcoming trips to Las Vegas and Australia; the imminent release of my allegorical novel ‘The Gift & The Curse’; the walking tours of Oxford I plan to organise around it; the 10th anniversary shows for The Sound of Freedom, and the offer of The MD Archives.
The manipulations run so deep, however, that the full story couldn’t be told in just that first book. Here, in Volume 2, he continues to guide readers through the dark labyrinth of machinations. Each chapter is about a song and it's historical context. Spanning multiple genres, from ragtime, calypso to grime. The book is almost like a dj set as he gives hints of upcoming songs in following chapters similar to a dj giving you a snippet of what’s to come but in this case with words. Each mention igniting excitement in the reader if they are familiar with the song. Imagine you are a psychopath for a minute (for one out of ten of us, no imagination is needed). Now imagine you have a lifestyle beyond wealth and recognizable luxury. You live in a reality where you have access to technology and information that very few are privy to. You are truly special among billions. You pay servants (corporate CEOs, Managers, etc...) of all sorts to carry out all of your directives (money is irrelevant to you because you have the power to create money). Alongside your servants you have real slaves that you like having around just because you can; and sometimes you use them for sex or simply torture them to death because those things thrill you. Of course, many of them are children.
Great Deal
