The Resurgence of Cult Jam: Why Their Comeback Is Worth Celebrating

by Levi Wise Kenneth Catoe Jr.

Step back in time with me to the 1980s, when New York City's art scene was bursting with vibrancy and color. From the underground Hip Hop culture to the iconic Paradise Garage and Funhouse, the city was a haven for creatives of all kinds. Whether you were into New Wave, CBGB's Punk Rock, Graffiti art, or Breakdancing in Times Square, NYC was the place to be.

Amid all this creative energy emerged the musical group that would take the city by storm: Lisa Lisa & Cult Jam featuring Full Force. "I Wonder If I Take You Home" sold out in record stores as the soulful voice of Lisa Velez and the group's unique sound made them an instant success.

But with fame came a price, and it was a steep one. Recently, I had the chance to sit down with Michael Hughes, one of the founding members of Cult Jam, and discuss the challenges that come with success in the music industry. From the highs of topping the pop, R&B, and dance charts to the struggles of navigating the industry's demands, We spoke in-depth regarding the price of fame. I was fortunate enough to have musician Michael Hughes share his insights on making it in the music business in the 1980s and today

Levi Wise Kenneth Catoe Jr.: How are you, Mr. Mike Hughes? You came out of a very vibrant art scene in NYC that pretty much centered around “you had to be there to understand” How would you describe those days in the early 1980's on W. 26th Street in NYC at the Funhouse? 

Michael Hughes: At that time in New York City, at that age was phenomenal. Music and dance were so experimental then. We had such a great variety of music. Not just House music, R&B, or just Funk and Disco if it had a great rhythm or said something special, it got played; mixed crowds, straight or gay, we danced all night. 

LWC: Back in those days you had innovators like Keith Haring, Basquiat, Jellybean Benitez, Madonna, Africa Bambata, Shep Pettibone, Mister Magic, Funky Four Plus One More, and on and on and on; even Sade once worked at the Danceteria what was it about that period in a time in which none of the useful tools that young people now have easily at their disposal is made available; but yet so much creativity came out of that scene of music artist, graffiti artist, makeup artist, DJ, dancers, etc.?

MH: When you appreciate and respect all that came before you. And feed on the creativity of those around you. It's impossible for the seeds of growth not to enter your soul.

LWC: Cult Jam was the first Street/Urban act that came out of Columbia Records which is now Sony take me through that from A&R to executive decisions it was apparent that they were jumping on a bandwagon by opening the door to an act that had street-cred yet were still musically accomplished to be a gateway for the Hip-Hop that followed once you guys opened the door with two #1 smash hits on the Pop charts Head To Toe which also topped R&B and Dance Charts as well, and Lost In Emotions which to me aged better than Head To Toe and that music video was amazing; especially given the time of cheap urban videos. What was your take on that?

MH: Cult Jam came out following in the footsteps of groups like "Secret Weapon ", Unlimited Touch, GQ, and Shannon; other groups and artists came behind us continuing the music flow. Labels and the so-called powers that like to put music in boxes/categories so they can control what they usually don't even understand. 

LWC: CBS/Columbia Records {note: CBS/Columbia records is now SONY} did a poor job promoting the group the name was too long ‘Lisa, Lisa & Cult Jam featuring Full Force’ I feel it was a marketing strategy that was also being used with Miami Sound Machine to breakup the act and create a solo space for Lisa Lisa (Lisa Velez) do you agree? 

MH: The add-on to our name ‘Cult Jam’ was merely a shot in the dark at marketing something catchy. You never really know about that stuff. We used to say what's in a name. It's a stupid name until you have a hit.

LWC: How has the music industry changed since those early years? 

MH: The industry is different now, but what remains the same is money makes promotion make success. 

LWC: Do you guys, Cult Jam {note: founding member drummer/keyboardist Michael (Cultjam)Hughes, guitarist/bassist Alex (Spanador) Mosely, and their latest female vocalist/soultress, Long Island native Mystina Sol} feel more empowered today, or was the industry machine better than the social media and internet freedoms of today?

MH: We as a lot of indie artists are empowered. We can create something we love 100% with no interference or someone looking over our shoulder. Those creations can feel like your children. But the company machine can be very helpful. There is a give and take in every situation. Life is full of compromise. 

LWC: Talk a bit about where you are now and Cult Jam in its current form and describe your music genre. Are you still under the umbrella of Hip Hop and freestyle? What is the evolution?

MH: Cult Jam music can be best described then and now as feel-good-good. You dance and sing we supply the ambiance.

LWC: I represent a Black Literature space as well as a college student base that often is unaware of music beyond the same mainstream artist that’s constantly being streamed if there was one song of Lisa Lisa & Cult Jam to introduce them to your music what would that one song be?

MH: I wonder if I take you home our first puts you into the feel of what comes in the colors of Cult Jam. Celebrate what love can do from our current creations and keep that sexy feel essence. 

LWC: So now my question is how would you introduce someone unfamiliar with your previous music to who you are as Cult Jam today?

MH: Seeing Cult Jam live has always been what represents us best. We were a touring band from day one.

LWC: Thank you so much for speaking with our audience today. You are a boss.

MH: Much love and appreciation - Mike "Cult Jam" Hughes.

Trama

Harold è un bambino che vive in un libro insieme ai suoi due migliori amici, Moose e Porcupine. Grazie a un pastello viola magico può far diventare reale ciò che disegna.

Quando Harold cresce, il narratore che chiama "Old Man" scompare misteriosamente, e per andare a cercarlo disegna una porta per andare nel Mondo Reale.

Recensione

Il film è un tributo all'immaginazione più pura, contenuta nel potere magico di un pastello viola ma che, se unita a un'intera scatola di altri pastelli colorati, ha un potere davvero potente. E, come dimostra il film stesso, il potere dell'immaginazione contenuto in quel singolo pastello viola è davvero immenso, perché non c'è limite a quello che una singola persona può immaginare.

I wanted to show folks that with a little imagination you can make your life whatever you want it to be. Volevo mostrare alle persone che con un po' di immaginazione puoi trasformare la tua vita in qualunque cosa tu voglia.

È una storia che insegna a usare la propria fantasia per rendere felici le persone che ci stanno attorno, in quanto già il mondo reale è pieno di crudeltà e tristezza. Ma è anche una storia che dimostra quanto, oltre che la fantasia e l'immaginazione, è necessario impegnarsi. Per raggiungere i propri obiettivi occorre anche tenere i piedi per terra e la testa sulle spalle: l'immaginazione deve aiutare ad addolcire le difficoltà che si incontrano nel scalare la vetta, senza sostituirsi al mondo reale perché, in tal caso, sarà qualcun altro a scrivere la tua storia. A condire il tutto vi è anche l'importanza dell'amicizia, e in particolare quella verache nei momenti più difficili ti viene ad aiutare senza farselo ripetere due volte.

Because life isn't just something that happens to you, it's something you create. The trick is in the imagining. Perché la vita non è solo qualcosa che ti capita, ma è qualcosa che crei. Il trucco è nell'immaginazione.

È una commedia dalla trama molto lineare e divertente, che segue la linea viola tracciata dal pastello di Harold donatogli dal suo creatore Crockett Johnson. Belli sono gli effetti speciali, ma ottimo è l'uso dell'animazione.

Valutazione

★★★★★ 5/5

Note aggiuntive

La storia è tratta dall'omonimo libro per bambini scritto da Crockett Johnson, ed è da considerarsi come il suo sequel.

L'azienda statunitense Crayola ha stretto una partnership con Sony cogliendo la palla al balzo per promuovere il film, lanciando il concorso "Find the purple crayon" in stile Willy Wonka e la Fabbrica di Cioccolato: Harold ha nascosto dei pastelli speciali all'interno delle confezioni da 24 pastelli. Si tratta di una caccia nazionale sul territorio statunitense, che può vedere una famiglia vincere una vacanza a New York City e visitare la Crayola experience, o altri premi tra i quali una TV Sony o bundle di prodotti viola Crayola.

Black History Month Tribute - Sugar Ray Leonard

(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});

Published: February 11, 2023

Ray Charles Leonard, otherwise known to boxing fans as Sugar Ray Leonard, was always destined for greatness. Named after iconic singer Ray Charles and incorporating the great Sugar Ray Robinson moniker, Leonard lived up to the hefty billing.

Leonard’s boyhood idol, Sugar Ray Robinson, was a truly magnificent fighter. If one wished to adopt the “Sugar Ray” moniker, they had to be worthy. Many have tried, but have not lived up to the representation and greatness of the name. Sugar Ray Leonard did. The only other true Sugar Ray.

Ray won a Gold medal as part of the great 1976 US Olympic boxing squad at light welterweight, launching his career in becoming one of the greatest fighters in the history of boxing, a five-weight division champion from welterweight to light-heavyweight, a three-weight lineal champion and undisputed welterweight champion.

In a decade that featured the prime years of Marvelous Marvin Hagler, Julio Cesar Chavez, Larry Holmes, and Mike Tyson, the man named fighter of the decade for the 1980s was Leonard.

Leonard flicked a switch once he entered the ring. In a book named SuperFight by Brian Doogan, detailing the historic showdown between Leonard and Hagler, Tyson starts by stating: “Don’t ever be fooled by the pretty face. Ray Leonard was a pit bull with a pretty face. Outside the ring, he was cute, articulate, smart, great looking, but deep down inside he was a vicious animal. When it comes to this fighting thing, he’s like a monster.”

Many of the greats have one thing in common, which is toughness, and Leonard had that in abundance. Ray took big shots from the likes of Thomas Hearns, Roberto Duran, and Hagler, all devastating punchers, and never succumbed. Leonard was also perhaps the greatest finisher of all time. Once Ray smelt blood in the water, even if it was in the late championship rounds against all-time elites, he had a special reserve of energy to savagely finish off his beaten opponent.

Alongside his immense toughness and vicious killer’s instinct, he had two-fisted power, the ability to fight equally as effectively on the inside and outside, IQ, reflexes, balance, blinding hand speed, great foot movement, and an innate ability to take advantage of an opponent’s weaknesses like no other. Leonard was one of the greatest all-rounders in boxing history.

Ray was a man who performed his craft with grace but also had the brutishness to seriously hurt opponents and end fights instantly. The perfect blend of grace and savagery.

One does not need to look any further than the brutal stoppages of Andy ‘Hawk’ Price and Davey ‘Boy’ Green to see how savage Leonard really was.

History dictates that a fighter will not be judged solely based on their own ability, but on the ability of the competition they face.

Leonard would have fit into any era and been a stand-out prizefighter, but the stars truly aligned for him to be afforded the opportunity to go toe-to-toe with dance partners such as Duran, Hearns, and Hagler.

These men, the legendary ‘Fabulous Four,’ produced breathtaking, historic nights between them. All four were amongst the greatest fighters of all time and would have held their own in any era in history, but together they immortalized one another. Also, not to mention the criminally underrated and fellow great, essentially the fifth king, Wilfredo “El Radar” Benitez.

The only man to hold a victory over all of the others… Leonard.

Leonard’s greatness did not just shine through beating his fellow greats that he did, but the electrifying fashion in which he did so.

His first title shot against Benitez in November 1979 marked Leonard’s arrival as more than just a media creation and marketable Olympic champion. Benitez was special, the man known as the “Bible of Boxing,” the youngest ever world champion at 17 after defeating long-reigning champion Antonio Cervantes. At the time of this fight, Benitez was 21, undefeated, and at the peak of his powers. He was 38–0 with 1 draw and a two-weight division champion. Benitez was one of the most naturally gifted boxers ever, one of the greatest defensive fighters of all time, and a magnificent counter-puncher. Leonard out-boxed and out-fought Benitez and got the stoppage in the 15th and final round, six seconds from the final bell.

Ray’s first professional defeat came against Duran at the Olympic Stadium in Montreal in June 1980, in the same arena where Leonard had won Olympic gold.

Leonard lost to a legend who had the best night of his life with one of the greatest triumphs in boxing history. Duran was a killer with a record of 71–1, and Leonard fought Duran’s fight, going toe-to-toe on the inside against one of the greatest in-fighters of all time, and lost a razor-close decision. Even in defeat, the ‘Golden Boy’ showed that he was more than just a slick boxer with marketable looks. He was a real fighter who possessed immense toughness.

The infamous ‘No Mas’ fight came just five short months later. When Leonard usually fought, he wore red, white, and blue trunks and had tassels on his shoes, but for the rematch, Leonard wore black trunks, black socks, and no tassels. In his Autobiography, “The Big Fight,” Leonard stated, “I would have put on black gloves if they had let me. It was not the time for any more showbiz. There was a title to win back.” Prior to leaving his dressing room, Leonard asked his adviser Mike Trainer: “How do I look?” Trainer responded: “You look like a mix of the Grim Reaper and an assassin,” to which Leonard responded to in his Autobiography, “Exactly.”

Since becoming champion, Duran had partied vigorously for months, and it was clear who the more focused and in-shape fighter was on fight night. Leonard masterfully out-boxed Duran, then started clowning and humiliating Duran, much to the Panamanian’s irritation. In the eighth round, Duran’s pride could take no more, and he turned his back on Leonard and waved the fight off to the referee. The man famed for his machismo and incredible will to win turned human and wanted no more, and Leonard was crowned champion once again.

When Ray faced Hearns in September 1981, the tall, lean, and explosively powerful “Hitman” was 22 and undefeated, boasting a record of 32 wins with 30 knockouts. Against a monster in Hearns while fighting for the undisputed welterweight championship, Leonard out-fought Hearns and came from behind on the scorecards to mount a furious assault in the 14th round and stop the fearsome knockout artist. This fight was a perfect demonstration of a peak Leonard, young and hungry, showing heart and a doggedness that completely defied his pleasant nature away from the ring to turn the tide of a grueling, losing fight to stop Hearns. Ray showed a quality that is rare on such grand occasions and points to greatness. This was a real historic, legacy-defining fight. Sugar Ray’s sweetest victory and Hearns’ first loss.

Leonard got these career-defining victories before the age of 26, and in the space of a 22-month period. The epitome of greatness.

Leonard was subsequently forced into retirement in 1982 due to a partially detached retina, so his physical prime was cut short. He made a brief return in 1984 against Kevin Howard, suffering the first knockdown of his professional career before prevailing with a vicious barrage of head blows later in the fight. Ray subsequently ‘officially retired’… until 1987.

In April 1987, Leonard faced one of the greatest middleweights of all time in Hagler and, against all odds, prevailed as the victor via a split decision. However debatable the result, Leonard fought the undisputed middleweight champion of over six years, with 12 title defenses, in his first fight in three years, having never competed at middleweight before. With no tune-ups, Ray was fighting the pound-for-pound best fighter on the planet. The fight was awarded “Upset of the Year” by The Ring. For Leonard to be so competitive against one of the most dangerous and dominant middleweight champions of all time after such prolonged inactivity was a sensational achievement.

Subsequently, past his prime competing against WBC light-heavyweight champion Donny Lalonde, Leonard showed heart, chin, power, and ferocious killer instinct when stopping a substantially naturally bigger man.

Leonard was arguably the most complete fighter since the days of Ray Robinson, and there has arguably not been as complete a prizefighter since Leonard.

Leonard filled the void left by Muhammad Ali’s retirement as boxing’s main attraction, and not only followed Ali in keeping boxing in the public’s interest, but followed Ali in being a real once-in-a-generation fighter, somebody who must be mentioned when discussing the finest fighters ever to lace a pair of gloves.

BARRERA DE SOL

LAS GERONTAS Manolo de la laguna

 No se asombren o maldigan por el título de estas líneas; en nuestra infinita ignorancia, no sabemos si la palabreja viola alguna regla gramatical, sintaxica o prosódica o algún verbo, sujeto o complemento, porque con eso de la "tenología", el idioma del "Mike" ya se echó a perder y ni modo, los avances tecnológicos no se pueden detener.

 Eso del "Mike" para los pocos enterados, es una referencia directa a Miguel de Cervantes Saavedra.

 El tema es que los médicos geriatras, nos dicen que la ancianidad es la etapa de la vida que comprende ¡Oh My Good!, el final de la vida, la cual se inicia o sea, la ancianidad, después de los 60 a��os 60, caracterizándose esta edad por su creciente disminución de la fuerza física y por ende, una pérdida sensible y progresiva de la actividad mental o lo que es lo mismo, amnesia senil.

 El rollo viene porque en España, se van a remodelar las gerontas, dos viejas plazas de toros y a una de ellas de plano le dicen la ancianita y está ubicada en Béjar, al parecer por el rumbo de Salamanca, si la memoria senil no nos falla; esta plaza es ya un Bien de Interés Cultural, en la ciudad charra y para su remodelación, se cuenta con algo así como 150 mil 150 de euros, habiendo sido inaugurada, según la historia taurina, en 1667, por lo que sí le queda el adjetivo de ancianita.

 Luego viene otra vieja... plaza "La Muralla"  ubicada en Brihuega, municipalidad de Guadalajara, España, para no confundirla con la Guadalajara mexicana, aunque, según la crónica, este coso se inauguró apenas el 12 de junio de 1965, con el siguiente cartel: Paco Camino, en su momento, "El Niño Sabio" de Camas, Andrés Hernandó y ¡claro! un Manolo, Manuel Benitez "El Cordobés".

 Y para terminar sin perder la geriatría, el alcalde de Brihuega se apellida Viejo, Luis Viejo, ironías de la vida. Este geronte les desa a los aficionados a la más bella de todas las fiestas, un Felíz y Próspero Año nuevo, esperando que les sea colmao de dicha, salud y prosperidad. Vale. 

(Manolo de la Laguna)
