The Southern soul survivor possesses the gonzo showmanship, expansive vision and warped wit to carry the imaginative fun of his music into the Auto-Tune era.

Admire Koz’s ability to try new styles and reinvent himself but his current kick is atrocious. I once loved his tunes but stopped listening a few years ago now. Follow the link to appreciate one commenter’s spot-on proposal of lyrics for a song called “I Cried During Wall Street”.

Excerpt:

“It had been a few years since I saw Wall Street, and I've always liked that movie so i went through my DVD cases because I always put them back in the wrong boxes no matter how many times i tell myself not to because it's just easier to stick them back in the wrong boxes

Maybe I should get a subscription to Netflix I had a free trial subscription a few years ago but it expired and the didn't tell me I was going to be charged and when I found out I had to call their customer service number because i couldn't find the link I'm pretty sure I yelled at them and told them to "get fucked" and my biggest fear is that I'll get the same customer service rep who's barely eeking out a living and holding on by a thread now that his wife left and his mom died unexpectedly, though you should always expect your mom to die, i guess”
