Care Bears Cover Album (OFFICIAL ANNOUNCEMENT) (Part 2 of CB TBT)
"inhales"
______________________________________________________________
"Somewhere between the left of thought, and just a little bit to the right of reason,
lies the wondrous, caring world of Care-A-Lot,
home of The Care Bears.
A place full of friendship and sharing,
the experience of 'Care Bears Caring',
guides you to ideas once thought of before,
now renewed to relive."
Come celebrate the ultimate compilation cover album of over 60 various Care Bears and Care Bears-themed songs over the franchise's 40+ year history.
______________________________________________________________
The most ambiguous project i've attempted to date…
After a decade of making rap music (please be forewarned of explicit content), i have decided to take a step back from "a" spotlight, and into the limelight by announcing…
CJ Baker Presents…Meet The Care Bears!
This is the first attempt at a full-on Care Bears cover album. While various individuals have covered Care Bear songs in the past, This is the first project to go head-on with 60+ covers of Care Bears and Care Bears-themed songs!
Hopefully this cover album can put a unique perspective into the ears of listeners by having this be all-male vocals (me), since the majority of Care Bears songs from yesteryear were, and i emphasize "majority", done by women.
This album is for Everyone; primarily children, but also for those who grew up with The Care Bears, and those who are aware of what,errr…Who The Care Bears are, even if they weren't part of childhood nostalgia.
Release Date: February 10th, 2024
The release date coincides with the 20th Anniversary of 2004's "Meet The Care Bears".
and YEAHhhh, the name of this project/album is purposely meant to be like that.
(all 12 songs from MTCB i cover. ALSO all the songs from 1982's Introducing The Care Bears AND 1983's The Care Bears Adventures In Care-A-Lot.)

i know there's been a lot of talk over the last six to ten years about how women in anime went from looking like people to looking very chibi-esque and i mean i know cowboy bebop and ive caught a couple gundams and ive seen satoshi kon films so like i thought i knew what people were mourning when they talked about 90s character design but like now i know....now i know.....this is what we lost as a society........

It's often very hard to talk to someone about active feelings of severe discouragement about being able to achieve something, because of the way the other person will feel obligated to argue in an attempt to make me feel less pessimistic, and when I argue back (with what I view to be the relevant objective evidence) it just makes the other person feel visibly awkward. We're conditioned to want to encourage each other to keep trying and not to let someone feel hopeless. And, I guess the alternative -- that one should respond to such venting with "Yeah, you're pretty screwed, just give up man" -- doesn't seem great either. But sometimes people feel pretty screwed for a reason and might have to seriously consider that the most rational course of action is to just give up now rather than sink more cost into something that simply isn't going to pan out.
By the way, what I'm vagueing about here is the fact that my academic career seems (from my reading of the evidence) doomed after my current contract ends (by which time I'll be a decade out of my PhD). But my point applies (rather more loosely) to other things I'm failing at as well, or to endeavors that other people are failing at.
Meanwhile, someone who encounters me from an outside perspective and feels no obligation to a validating friend (an actual example being a woman I had a virtual date with back in the fall, who then canceled our developing plans for an in-person date when she found out about my career situation) may wonder, not unreasonably, why I continue year after year delaying my geographic/personal stability in order to stay on the academic job market on the offchance that my luck changes when almost all concrete evidence seems to point in the other direction. It actually looks pretty irrational from their perspective, and I don't quite know how to justify myself except to wave my arms in the direction of "everyone in my close personal and professional life tells me to keep trying and not to give up".
