about

A posthumous collaboration with the late Bradley Bogus Holbrook. A legacy immortalized by music.

As young musicians, we played in a band together in Johannesburg before Bradley emigrated to the UK.

Bradley sadly passed away in December of 2022.

One night, Bradley appeared to me in a dream. The next morning I woke up and opened my YouTube homepage. The 1st video at the top was a video of Brad. It was a live performance video of a short song he'd written before his passing.

I immediately downloaded the audio and sliced it up in my DAW. I constructed a beat with the guitar from the sample, wrote a verse, lay down a bass line and built a beautiful hook with Bradley's vocals.

Appropriately, I then grabbed my guitar to lay down a smooth solo. Reuniting with my old friend to have, Our Last Jam."

lyrics

You smell so good when you flower
You looks so beautiful
You smell so good when you flower
You looks so beautiful

Wanted to wake and smell the roses
But woke to the smell of a bad case of halitosis
I bow down and wash my mouth out with magic potions
Then pour some out on the ground as another chapter closes
Bradley Holbrook
Man we had some happy moments
A bunch of stoner puffing cannabis in massive doses
We used to hotbox your room damn that was Bogus
We practically turned your family into passive smokers
I still remember cos I can't forget ya
Reflecting on the memories just fills my heart with pleasure
I can't believe that you're gone forever
At least I gave you your flowers but we burned them in a bong together
I'll never ever let those memories fade
Cos that's all we've got left at the end of the day
It is inevitable everybody's flesh will decay
But your legacy will be here forever to stay
Rest in peace

You smell so good when you flower
You looks so beautiful
You smell so good when you flower
You looks so beautiful

You smell so good when you flower
You looks so beautiful
You smell so good when you flower
You looks so beautiful
