Everyone nows about Netflix’ anime Castlevania first season. It has been available for a while but if you haven’t picked it up yet this is one that would be a great add to the collection. Here’s the trailer through Viz’ YouTube Channel:
This looks to be a wild ride. But…it always is with Harley 🙂 Check it out from DC’s YouTube channel:
“The Party” from Summer Dennis and Rhymes is like taking a time machine back to the 1970’s. It has the Disco/Soul flavor that everyone loved and that I still enjoy. The feeling that this single instills is getting on the dance floor and grooving with your partner with the smooth tones that are being coaxed from the instruments to the vocals that are being laid down.
So grab your partner and start that groove with the music video for “The Party” through their YouTube channel. Thanks to Meijin Bruttomesso of Effective Immediately PR for sharing this track to ComicPop and our listeners.

Sena Kana is hitting it out of the park with her debut single “Up”. The single also feature Wiz Khalifa and one of my favs Sheppard. “Up” has a great dance vibe to it and you can understand why if you have ever listened to anything by Sheppard. It starts out with a simple beat and Sheppard bringing in the first verse, then the next verse hits and Sena comes in with Sheppard and the beat jumps up to a upbeat rhythm through the chorus. Sena’s single has an infectious beat that gets the body moving towards the latter part of the song Wiz Khalifa comes in strong with his rap. It all blends together to form a great song that I really enjoy.
Thanks to Nadia Ali and Amanda Charney of BlackPanda PR for allowing ComicPop to share Sena Kana’s single with our listeners. Enjoy everyone – Richard

ComicPop’s friend Rhonda Rees is back visiting. If you remember Rhonda is the owner of her own public relations company and when we last visited with her we talked about her book, Profit and Prosper with Public Relations, and her advocacy for Online Book Piracy.
In this visit Rhonda gives first hand accounts of her past year of upheaval by going through one of last years California fires and losing pretty much everything, to just recently riding out the earthquakes in California.
One never knows what life will throw at you, but Rhonda is talking everything in stride and adding the experiences to her life story.
