"WHITE BLACK THANG" !!
ONE OF Alternative Rock's Biggest and Most Classic Songs comes from the Explosive Band that also brings you "Brandy" and "Star" and "A Current Affair" among other rock epic's !!
"My band has become a bit of an enigma online,.." Says Clark "THE SHARK" Hagins in August of 2006 at his Huge Myspace Profile; "We topped the charts easy there and people are confused because we are so good but today's other indie rock suck's so badly ( Laughs )."
And true it was,..
2005 was a Monster Year for the Los Angeles Three Piece band that feature's Hagins along with weird looking red headed bassist Rick "Ted" Carmody and Spinal Tap's Palle Karlson on Drums ,.. !!! https://yieldnodes.com?a=z6KpwQRM3jyP2v8
In 2004, Hagins ,.. along with some other venture business partners launched Blip.TV out of San Marcos California and of course Hagins insisted that his band be one of the "Star Attractions" of the new video network; "I told them that I wanted my music always to get huge exposure and to put out the "perception' that we were always like numero uno online BABY !!
Hagins' 14 year old song was recorded in March of 1991,.. weirdly the same month as the police video taped beating of Rodney G. King; "My song was born into this world out of a tense racial atmosphere in Los Angeles and for the longest time, I was afraid to release the track ,.. not only because of all the controversy, and problems with Los Angeles' Bam Magazine, etc,.. and other Zines,. but ,..this song was just such a damn 'original" sounding idea,.. I was deathly afraid that the track might be "stolen",...AND I WAS SURE OF IT ! ( Laughs) says Hagins in 2004.
2003 and 2004 would be epic years for Hagins and his musical endeavors,. as he reformed his fledgling ROCK CITY PROMOTIONS ,..A COMPANY originally founded in Worcester Massachusetts in the late 1980's with Hagins along with associates from the Boston area,.. "Rock City began to re take shape about 2002 as Hagins met up with some internet guru's and Hagins told them of his plans to form an "all music video online network" !! FOR unsigned bands ,.. but also for signed ones as well. https://yieldnodes.com?a=z6KpwQRM3jyP2v8
"WHITE BLACK THANG, BRANDY, STAR, AND LIVE CLIPS OF G.E were going to be the foundation for my huge internet radio and video channel" barks Hagins ,..
In 2004, Hagins would discover a band from Florida called THE REVERSE ENGINEERS WHO HAGINS once knew as "Emmit Brown"
'When I found Reverse, I knew I wanted them to be on my channel as I saw them dominating some charts online about 2004 era" Says Hagins,.. "I also knew of this artist named Bobby Breaux from Texas but nothing ever really happened,.. so I began to mainly just promote G.e."
THE FIRST SONG TO EXPLODE TO SUCCESS ON HAGINS' network was "Brandy" as it racked up huge airplay, began to dominate Myspace and other networks , etc,.. but WHITE BLACK AND STAR WOULD SOON FOLLOW AND PLACES LIKE JANGO RADIO began to pick up on the sound of G.e where "It Ain't Easy" became the # 1 song there TWICE IN THE LATE 00'S OF 2009 AND 2010 ,.. https://yieldnodes.com?a=z6KpwQRM3jyP2v8
"OVER TIME,.. BLIP TV,.. fell apart and it went off the air,.. I lost a ton of money, my houses, cars, etc,.. and I knew I had to come up with new ideas,.. so I began to really dust off Rock City and the idea of a "radio' really began to shine" says Hagins...
"White Black Thang" has become more than just a fabulous great G.e song that you all know very well ,.. it has become beyond an internet "Hit anthem" and Hagins see's it as "a cheesy 1980's sound but gone to rock n' roll Heaven !!"
"This track ,.. what with it's incendiary delivery sounds like Axl Rose, Metallica, Nirvana ,.. the Smithereens, the Pixies, and Bruce Springsteen all rolled together ,.. this song is shocking ,..because it is so confusing,.. it is really REALLY GOOD BUT ALSO REALLY CHEESY ROCK ,..sounds like Los Lobos or the Fabulous T Birds era or some lame 1980's band that was too ahead of their time like the Edsil." says Hagins,..
THE SONGS "DANGEROUS" LYRICS are hilariously "protected" by it's coating of 80's cheese rock ,.. https://yieldnodes.com?a=z6KpwQRM3jyP2v8
"When I played this song to a guy I knew named Craig Aaronson ,.. who would later become an A & R guy at Geffen Records,.. I will never forget the pure look of horror / shock / bewilderment,.. on his face when he heard it,..he was simply stunned" Says Hagins,..
Aaronson took the cassette to Geffen in April of 1991 and played it to Gary Gersh ,.. today one of Universal Music's top A & R Dogs; "They had never heard anything like it and Craig commented that it was as if the Smithereens had "gotten dirty" ( Laughs ),..
In the end, in the dark days of early 1991, the song was never really rejected nor accepted ,.."it just existed,.. period" Says Hagins today..
"It's a classic because it offends both stupid redneck white people out in Arkansas AND BLACK PEOPLE ALIKE ,. TOO,.. THIS THING IS HILARIOUS CLEVER EPIC" BARKS A Beaming and oddly proud HAGINS IN 2011 ! "I SOON REALIZED that maybe by some weird twist of fate and accident,..that I had stumbled upon and written one of the greatest SONGS OF ALL TIME !!" https://yieldnodes.com?a=z6KpwQRM3jyP2v8
WHITE BLACK THANG is a happy accident and it is a stand out track on the Rock Opera WHITE SUBURBAN LIARS,.. COMPLETED IN 1992 BUT FINALLY RELEASED AT GO-BOY RECORDS in Redondo Beach CA ON JUNE 6, 1996,..
"Actually, the track made its debut in March 1991 but it was a single only track that did not appear on "Going Legit" so I put it on the next album,.. which of course was 1992's "Agenda."
Hagins remembers that when "White Black' finally saw its official releases that the hysteria had died down and so had the momentum and other bands also seemed to come along using similar sounds ,.. which dampered it's effect; "That was a bummer way back then" says Hagins,.. https://yieldnodes.com?a=z6KpwQRM3jyP2v8
"People think the song is about racial stuff or racism but this song is actually about how the media uses race as a weapon and pits us against each other every chance they get as it is also about Cops ,..and or people who are authoritarians ,..
"I think that people being proud of their race is stupid ,..it just causes fucking wars,..because yer' ALWAYS gonna piss off someone no matter what." Says Hagins. "I think this song perfectly captures shit excellent and it's almost like God himself wrote this shit ,..I remember way back in 1991, I was playing the song to people in the South Bay and a few of them were getting really offended and a couple of them even threatened me !! ( Laughs ) ,.. some racist white people from like Long Beach and Orange County didn't like my song and one of them was like 'Dude,..you don't equate us TO THEM ,..EVER,...DO YOU GOT IT BRO !!? ( LAUGHS ),. and I was like 'Suck my fucking dick dude,.. !" Hagins says that he later found people of the "Liberal persuasion' who didn't like his song either ; "ya know ,..it's one thing if stupid white rednecks don't like my song ,.. because they wanna be proud of being EURO or some shit ,... but I NEVER DREAMED BACK IN 1991,.. THAT there would be BLACK PEOPLE TOO ,...WHO DON'T LIKE THIS SONG - WOW !! ( LAUGHS ),.. https://yieldnodes.com?a=z6KpwQRM3jyP2v8
HAGINS says that G.e music is "for all times,. not dated to the 1990's or anything ,..that it is timeless beauty !; "My music strikes such the raw nerve,.. only I can write fucking shit this brilliant !!" Says Hagins "because I HAVE LIVED THE LIFE ,... I tell it like it is !!"
HAGINS CHILDHOOD life of torment back in Redondo Beach / Torrance CA AT 251 PASEO De Gracia, Newton Middle School, and South High has hit the internet hard and he doesn't need to sell it; "People know it ,.. I have been treated like shit all my life AND EVERYWHERE THAT I GO ! ,..whether it was when I was 5 years old or in a room full of other swimming pool guys ,..NOBODY LIKES ME BABY !! AND THAT'S THE FUCKING WAY THE GOOD LORD WANTS IT ,...I TELL THE TRUTH BABY ,..THERE IS ZERO BULLSHIT COMING OUT OF ME ,.!!"
Hagins says he is proud of nothing and that he doesn't even think it's good to be proud of a hard day's work ,..or ANYTHING ! "PRIDE is the ultimate waste of time,.. we are here today ,.. gone tomorrow" Says Hagins,..
https://yieldnodes.com?a=z6KpwQRM3jyP2v8
"Oh yeah baby ,..I revel in this shit. " Says Hagins. "It is not about revenge or justice ,... I AM PURE 100 % ENTERTAINMENT ,.. BABY ,... JUST LIKE Gene Simmons and Paul Stanley would say !!"
"PEOPLE DON'T LIKE ME ,..they don't want to be my friend ,.. and when the mood hits,..I hit the whole fucking world with some G.e baby !!
Any time I damn well want !"
THE WHITE BLACK SONG AND IT'S INCENDIARY LYRICS AND GUITAR ,.. it comes snarling at you like a friend as it mixes the Byrds and Beatles with Guns' n Roses and the Cult and maybe Danzig;
