…we skated over to Fontana to catch Suga Free, and 2nd II None tear the house down at Stage Red. It was an incredible night full of West Coast legends. I felt like I was in that movie Swingers, but with much better music and cooler friends.

Last night, my friends and I achieved the impossible by driving 60 miles across the Inland Empire to make sure we attended TWO hip-hop shows at the same damn time. We saw DJ Quick, Hi-C, and Mister CR at the Garden Amphitheater, and then…

I was heartbroken when I learned about her passing in 2006. I felt like the film industry suffered a massive loss, and it hurt to know I would never get the chance to meet her in person, let alone work with her, which was a huge dream of mine. Thankfully, her music lives forever.

Most of her catalog is horror and superheroes, which explains why she was such a predominant influence in my life. When I finally dared to explore horror movies in depth, it became a fun experience because I found Shirley Walker’s music on many of them.

I believe Shirley Walker’s score is the best Batman score ever made. Shirley captured the character's emotionality and complexity — her music sounded mysterious, charming, dark, adventurous, and forever epic. And like that, as quick as you could say “Batarang,” I was Shirley Walker’s biggest fan.

After orchestrating and conducting scores for kick-ass films like BATMAN, DICK TRACY, GHOULIES, NIGHTBREED, PACIFIC HEIGHTS, and WHITE FANG, she composed the music for Warner Television’s live-action series, THE FLASH.

Shirley Walker started her career working with the best artists in the industry. In San Francisco, she played keyboard on the APOCALYPSE NOW recording sessions, which opened the door for her to co-compose THE BLACK STALLION with Carmine Coppola.

Notorious B.I.G. and Hooverphonic had the same taste in music: Issac Hayes’ WALK ON BY has been sampled by many incredible artists over time, but the most notable for me are WARNING from Biggie’s READY TO DIE album and 2 WICKY from the I KNOW WHAT YOU DID LAST SUMMER soundtrack.

I love the life this record has lived: a big ol’ chip in its sleeve, a personalized label that I will never take off from Western Connecticut State University, and even the playback has so much personality. Thank you, Dj-RonIce, whoever you are.

THE INFAMOUS by MOBB DEEP may be the best rap album ever made. Whenever I put it on, it sends me right back to freestyle cyphers in the gymnasium. I can’t believe I get to see the whole thing be performed live by the remaining members of Mobb Deep, next Tuesday at the Wiltern.
