It’s Christmas — Let’s Dance! 🎄💃 | Karel Cast No politics. No heavy headlines. No big debates. It’s Christmas Day — a day for joy, memories, music, and movement. And today on The Karel Cast, we’re doing exactly that: dancing through decades of stories, songs, and survival. I’ve been making music professionally since the late 1980s, and on this special Christmas episode, I’m sharing the stories behind the songs — and playing some of the music videos I’ve created over the years, including: 🎶 “Everybody Get On Up” — big hair, fake music, real dancing, and one unforgettable outfit straight from the hood. 🎶 My first “big” record with Jellybean Benitez — how we met, where it was recorded, and why we ended up in the desert… in a trailer… with 200 pieces of fried chicken. 🎶 “Don’t Stop” — my first Sylvester cover, featuring Thea Austin and Jeanie Tracy (who sang on the original), plus incredible studio stories. 🎶 “Stronger Together” — written after Michelle Obama’s “when they go low…” moment, and how Daniel, Thea, Morgan, and I came together in my TuffStudio. 🎶 “Married Men” — why that song had to be written. 🎶 “We’re Not Going Back” — an anthem that hit Top 4 in the UK. 🎶 “Do You Wanna Funk” — another Sylvester classic with a very unique backstory. This episode is about music as memory, movement as survival, and dancing because we’re still here. It’s Christmas. Let’s dance. 🕺✨ The Karel Cast is supported by your donations at patreon.com/reallykarel. Please watch, like, and subscribe at youtube.com/reallykarel.
