at first the amount of people who said they recognized me from my art was just funny but now it's to an almost concerning extent. i rarely post any art of mine it is 99% writing over here. what art are you all seeing. why do you recognize it instead of my many pieces of writing. what is going on.
#muzz mumbles#the first two times it happened i was like ''haha that's funny''#now it's just uncanny#i am by no means an artist except on the rare blue moon#and even then all of the art i've posted has an average of like. 15 notes#i'm just sitting here like the Dissociating Mr Krabs meme#are you all looking into an alternate universe where i focused on my art skills instead of writing#if so can I come with you

Michael Jackson featuring Slash - Give In to Me 1993
"Give In to Me" is a song by American singer-songwriter Michael Jackson, released as the seventh single from his eighth studio album, Dangerous (1991). Released in February 1993 - in Europe, Australia and New Zealand only - the song peaked at number one in New Zealand for four consecutive weeks and at number two on the UK Singles Chart. The track was written and produced by Jackson and Bill Bottrell, and features Guns N' Roses guitarist Slash. Stylistically, "Give In to Me" is a hard rock and heavy metal ballad.
The music video features Jackson performing the song on stage at an indoor rock concert with ex Living Colour bassist Muzz Skillings, Guns N' Roses guitarists Slash and Gilby Clarke, as well as the band's touring keyboardist Teddy Andreadis and legendary session drummer Tony Thompson. It was shot on June 25, 1992, in Munich, Germany, just two days before the opening concert of the Dangerous World Tour.
The album Dangerous debuted at number one on the US Billboard Top Pop Albums chart and in thirteen other countries, selling 5 million copies worldwide in its first week and went on to be the best-selling album worldwide of 1992. By 1994 Dangerous had sold 25 million copies worldwide. It was certified 8× Platinum by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA) in August 2018.
"Give In to Me" received a total of 77,1% yes votes! Previous Michael Jackson polls: #45 "Will You Be There", #114 "Why", #220 "Blame It on the Boogie". Previous polls featuring Slash: #159 "I'm Just Ken".

Star Trek vs Star Wars
Here's a a comment I wrote on a YouTube video comparing Star Trek and Star Wars. I've been trying to explain why the philosophy of Star Trek is better than Star Wars and give examples to support my argument.
As a lifelong fan of both franchises, I agree that Trek offers better ideologies. It took me more than 30 years to realize "do or do not, there is no try" was fundamentally bad advice! How many fans live by Yoda's aphorism? There is no room for trial and error and improvement in black-or-white thinking. Yoda failed Luke. Look at the results in The Last Jedi. Luke was literally hiding from the rest of the galaxy because he failed. What would Spock or Picard teach Luke about learning a new skill? Get up and do it again until you can do it or find another way to do it. Then there's the issue of the Jedi rejecting people because they sense too much fear in them. Why not teach healthy coping skills to younglings and padawans? Fear can be a useful emotion. In Dune, the Bene Gesserit have the Litany Against Fear, which teaches you to allow the fear to pass over and through you. What do the Jedi teach about overcoming fear? Fear is bad. Don't feel it. You're bad for feeling fear. Another failed teaching. What would Spock or Picard teach Anakin about fear? Apply logic. Feel the feelings, but don't allow them to take over.
ASMR Muzz. “Why Star Trek is Better than Star Wars.” YouTube, 21 Oct. 2020, https://youtu.be/48Dj1KEM6QY?si=mEhKnHoZruFEaPHr.

A Versatile Career: Muzz Khan's Journey In Acting And Music
Introduction:
Muzz Khan, born in 1981 in Burnley, Lancashire, is a versatile and talented actor and DJ. His performances are captivating. Khan's on-screen presence is like a symphony of emotions, while his musical talents extend beyond the stage. As a DJ, he creates crowd-pleasing sets that pulse with energy and emotion, transporting listeners to abandon their daily 9-to-5s. His life and career is a testament to the enduring power of artistic exploration, where one individual's passion transcends tradition to create a legacy that echoes through entertainment’s rich history.
Early Life And Education:
Muzz Khan, born in Burnley and raised in Nelson, Lancashire, was born to shine in the world of performing arts. His journey began at Edge End High School, where the BBC chose and elected to film an episode of the Patricia Routledge-led, detective series "Hetty Wainthropp Investigates." This visit ignited his passion for acting and sparked his determination to pursue his dreams. Khan attended Accrington and Rossendale College to study a BTEC National Diploma in Performing Arts, where he honed his skills and built a foundation for his future. It is noted that he received a Distinction grade there for his studies.
He then attended the Webber Douglas Academy of Dramatic Art in South Kensington, London, where he trained alongside fellow students and now renowned actors Rupert Friend, Natalie Dormer, Tom Mison, and Elyes Gabel. His time at drama school wasn’t a happy one but he was encouraged by Rupert (Friend) to continue his studies and not throw in the towel. Khan's journey from Lancashire to London and later to Los Angeles, is a testament to his passion, tenacity, pursuit of excellence, and the single-minded vision to set the stage for his remarkable career.
Acting Career:
Muzz Khan began his professional acting career in 1999 with a voice-over (ADR) role in "East is East." Khan initially auditioned for a part as one of the core cast members but his lack of experience at a young age and casting fit were not deemed to be quite right at the time. He has since appeared in various UK television shows, including "No Angels" and "Bradford Riots”, on Channel 4. "24: Live Another Day", for Fox Television, "The Suspicions of Mr. Whicher”, for ITV Studios, and "Black Mirror: White Christmas", playing the amusingly-titled character of Fappuccino. In 2016, he starred in the American, ABC musical comedy "Galavant" with Robert Lindsay, Timothy Omundson, Weird Al Yankovic and others. Khan's versatility is clear in films like "Me Before You", "WONKA" and "The Hatching".
He has also performed at prestigious theaters, including the Royal National Theatre, the Royal Shakespeare Company, the Noel Coward Theatre, the Royal Court Theatre, the Bush Theatre and The Wyndhams Theatre in London’s West End. Khan's talent extends to radio drama, narrating novels such as A.A Dhand’s Virdee detective series – which has just been commissioned for television by the BBC for 2024 – and bringing stories to life in dramas on BBC Radio 4.
Music Career:
Muzz Khan, a renowned DJ, began his music career in 2007 in London. He gained recognition in the music scene, performing as a resident at iconic venues like Pacha London, the Ministry of Sound, KOKO and the O2 Academy Brixton and renowned events like Mixmag, EP/IC, Defected and Hed Kandi. Khan's energetic and crowd-pleasing sets, specializing in house music and multi-genre, have captivated audiences across the UK and beyond.
He has performed at venues like Bush Hall, Electric Brixton, Studio 338, Lightbox London, EGG LDN and Ibiza's Space Nightclub and Es Paradis. Khan served as the resident DJ for the 2016 UK tour of "Rave of Thrones" alongside actor Kristian Nairn. He is currently a resident DJ for Hed Kandi and has made appearances in music videos, including "Rather Be" by Clean Bandit, "Feel It All" by KT Tunstall, and "Last Night A DJ Saved My Life" by Seamus Haji.
Personal Life:
Muzz Khan, a devoted husband and father to a loving family of five, finds solace in the sanctuary of his parental world. Nestled in the countryside of Royal Tunbridge Wells, Kent. His personal life serves as a testament to the balance between fame and family life, reminding us to cherish the bonds of family, the haven of home and to remain grounded.
Conclusion:
Muzz Khan's career spans acting and music, showcasing his versatility and dedication. For over two decades, he has been a shining beacon in the entertainment industry, captivated by his artistic exploration and innovation. Khan's acting is a symphony of dramatic and comedic delight, while his DJing continues to help dancing crowds to find liberation and freedom through music. His journey is an ever-evolving climb, pushing the boundaries of artistic possibilities and reminding us that the only limit to our potential is the extent of our imagination. Khan's passion, versatility, and dedication to the arts make him a testament to the boundless possibilities of a dynamic career in the entertainment industry, particularly as a working class, British-Pakistani actor.

A classic. I saw this photo on Instagram, and it brought a smile to my face. I still have this album on cassette, stored away in my garage. The CD version is much more accessible. I actually listened to it again recently. This album changed my life on multiple levels, and I’ll always cherish it and the memories it brings back.

I hear that they say that broken hearts will mend
But when they do they're never good as new
I wish right now I could change it back
I never meant to do the things I did to hurt you
