Flashback Friday – 11/20

Happy Friday All! How is everyone’s Friday going? Most likely wonderfully because it IS Friiiiiiidaaaaay after all and most likely payday! With that said, I will gladly set up an account for donations for all this internet DJing I do for y’all if you want, :D. Today’s blog features Case, Lost Boyz, Oaktown 357, Tony Terry and Warren G. Song of the day though in my opinion, goes to Oaktown 357. That beat, the rhymes, the dances, the style had me LOL and made me think, what the h*ll were they thinking?? Lol. I won’t knock it though, thats what was hot back then. And just watching the Warren G video has me realizing that Nate Dogg was the West Coast version of T-Pain back in the day. Minus the Autotune, top hat and Big A$$ Chain of course, lol. Enjoy today’s songs, vote, suggest, comment and have a blessed weekend. 🙂

Flashback Friday – 10/30

Happy Friday All! It’s Halloween Eve, so I should post some scary songs for the occasion, but I think Tone Loc’s voice is scary enough, so I’ll leave well enough alone. I have posted up, as I have done every Friday since late April, five random Hip Hop and R&B videos that must be at least 10 years old. Today, Jody Watley, Kool Mo Dee, Next, Monica and the aforementioned Tone Loc grace this Friday’s blog. I actually posted Monica today because I was watching a little bit of her Keyshia Colesque reality show in BET called “Still Standing”, which is also the title of her upcoming unreleased album. I remember the song I posted by her in particular as  kinda of anthem for all PMSing females– real talk, lol. I would love Monica’s videos because she always had the cutest dudes in them, haha. I admittedly always thought the song I posted by Next was corny, but I put it up because it got tons of spins when it was released, so thats why its up, lol. Please enjoy the rest of the videos I didn’t speak on, as well as commenting, voting and suggesting. Have a safe and fun Halloween weekend and as always, have a blessed one. I’m out! 🙂

Flashback Friday – 10/16

Happy Friday All! I don’t know which parts of the world all 14 of my readers are viewing this blog from, (I picked up two more….yeah! *smile*) but over here in MD its getting cold outside, so I hope those of you who can feel me, are sitting somewhere  working, studying or chilling with the heat on this Friday afternoon. Today’s Flashback Friday features random songs from Ahmad, Jagged Edge, Public Enemy, Run DMC and Whitney Houston. What’s funny is that as many times as I’ve heard and referred to the song “Back In The Day” by Ahmad, I never the name of the artist who made the song–all I knew was the song, lol. Amongst Public Enemy, Run DMC and Whitney Houston, I could pick any song for them and I really couldn’t go wrong. They are all pioneers of the industry and have been honored as such since the early 80’s when they all debuted. Last week I posted a song from ‘pre-pedo’ R. Kelly and today I will be posting a song from Whitney’s ‘pre-crack’ era before she met Bobby Brown and was on top of the R&B game. With that said, I’m outta here so that you can listen, vote, comment and suggest! Have a blessed weekend! 🙂

Ahmad – Back In The Day (1994)

Jagged Edge – Gotta Be (1998)

Public Enemy – Can’t Truss It (1991)
