Be Like Mike: Black Mamba Halloween Mix



“All my life, I just wanted to be like Mike… Myers”
- Ras Kass



Everyone’s entitled to one unexpected HHIRxBBB mix in my birth month of August. But this year, it’s Augtober.



Every October, I get really excited about watching as many horror movies as I can. Real ‘80s baby type s***. Last year, Hamas ruined October and turned my movie-loving month into a REAL horror flick. I had carefully and joyfully curated thirty-one days of cinematic programming for October, and I just couldn’t make it past the 7th. This year, I get back into the seasonal vibe EARLY, and I’m calling it Augtober. Why just one month? Let’s make it a three-peat! 😉



This interview, released not too long before he passed, puts Kobe’s “psychotic” side on full display. And it fascinates me. From what I’ve read, Kobe was something of a film buff, too. Inspired by the genius of John Carpenter and Kobe Bryant, here is… the Mamba Myers Michael Mentality Medley Mix. That's a whole lotta Ms!



I imagine a nextgen Kobe Bryant waking up at 4am, hitting the gym, playing this mix on a loop, and shooting 2,400 free throws. …Or maybe it doesn’t have to be something so extreme. Enjoy this as a workout mix, a celebration of John Carpenter’s infamous Halloween theme. Or maybe someone out there will simply put this on in their headphones and complete the stealthiest Trader Joe's run of their life. I don’t know. All I know is… Be like Mike. Enjoy... and turn it up!
