Super Hip Chick Alert! Björk

February 23, 2015 by Perez Leave a Comment

This March, The Museum of Modern Art http://www.moma.org/ presents a retrospective of the multifaceted work of composer, musician, and singer Björk. The exhibition draws from more than 20 years of the artist’s daring and innovative projects and her eight full-length albums to chronicle her career through sound, film, visuals, instruments, objects, and costumes. I love this artist and SUPER Hip Chick Alert – ever since she was in the Sugar Cubes –this fab lady was born in Reykjavík, Iceland and now lives in Brooklyn, New York .She plays piano, keyboards, flute, harp, clarinet and harmonica- my ears lit up with her first hit with her first hit Birthday with The Sugarcubes, in 1987 was a hit on US and UK indie stations- since then Björk has developed an eclectic musical style that incorporates aspects of dance, rock, trip hop, jazz, electronic, classical, experimental and avant-garde music. Music critics have consistently championed Björk’s body of work, praising her innovative approach to singing and composition, her pioneering use of electronic beats, her groundbreaking music videos, and, above all, her singular voice, describing her as “the most important and forward-looking musician of her generation and “the best non-pop female vocalist of the last 30 years- as for me I LOVE HER and forgive her for her Swan dress that she featured at the Oscars a few years back – so go check out this retrospective HIP CATS – SEE YOU THERE!

Peace Perez

It feels like the end of an era, and my heart is h It feels like the end of an era, and my heart is heavy. When leadership becomes more authoritarian, history shows that the first things threatened are free expression, open speech, and often satire — the very tools comedians use to hold a mirror to society.

Hearing that Stephen Colbert is leaving the Ed Sullivan Theater is something I never imagined witnessing in my lifetime. The pressure surrounding corporate mergers and the shifting media landscape has created an environment where voices can be squeezed out, intentionally . It’s painful to watch journalists and comedians — people who challenge us, inform us, and make us think — face increasing limitations.

Still, I have no doubt that Colbert, with his intelligence and sharp comedic mind, will land somewhere new. But the broader silencing we’re seeing remains deeply concerning.

Stay well. Stay hip. Stay informed. Read books. Be kind to everyone you meet. #FreedonOfSpeech #intellegent #comedy
Word of the day: Peace. @colbertlateshow

An epic evening at Dizzy’s with the incomparable H An epic evening at Dizzy’s with the incomparable Helen Sung, first alongside @roncarterbassist and then leading her brilliant big band. Watching that music move through the room felt like witnessing art in motion. Helen closed the set with Horace Silver’s Peace, wrapping the night in a warm, soulful embrace.

The audience was full of thoughtful, art-loving humans, and the whole experience lifted my spirit so high I’m still floating. I’m grateful to call Helen Sung a friend — hearing her original compositions and her stunning arrangements was extraordinary.

As Jackson Browne reminds us, these days we need to stick together. We need to support the arts. We need to share stories. We need music to fill our souls and remind us why storytelling matters.

Stay hip out there. Be kind to everyone you meet. Honor your own journey — it’s important.

Helen @sung_helen, congratulations. Tonight was pure joy.
Peace out,

UFC Freedom 250 (also referred to as UFC White Hou UFC Freedom 250 (also referred to as UFC White House) is an upcoming mixed martial arts event organized by the Ultimate Fighting Championship. It is scheduled for June 14, 2026, on the South Lawn of the White House in Washington, D.C. The event’s title references the 250th anniversary of the United States Declaration of Independence.

On August 29, 2025, UFC CEO Dana White announced on social media that the plans had been finalized, saying, “We had the meeting at the White House… The White House fight is on.” His announcement followed public remarks from President Trump, who referenced his long-standing friendship with White. Trump has attended numerous UFC events in recent years, including UFC 316 in New Jersey, where several fighters greeted him cageside.

For me, this entire situation feels deeply disappointing. At a time when the country needs unity, elevating yet another fighting spectacle on such a symbolic national stage feels disheartening. I have always viewed UFC as a sport that is unrefined and lacking in dignity, and seeing it tied to this administration only reinforces that impression.

As for my own celebration of the Fourth of July, I will be spending it with friends and family, sharing a meal, and focusing on love, connection, and the true spirit of freedom.

That's all
