Rainy Day Music


It's ugly as heck out here this week....rainy and cold and whatnot....makes Taurus' like myself moody.....sometimes unnecessarily moody. And when I'm moody, I need "moody music", if you will. Here's a taste of what I mean. And as always, thanks for listening.

'sup all.


Isn't this picture DOPE? anywho.....

Hope everyone had a blessed holiday. Me? Well I drank a lil too much to counter having to spend the early part of the day at work (shrugs shoulders) but other than that, everything was all good. I had originally planned to put this up as "driving music for the holiday road trip", or "helping mama in the kitchen" music, but I was moving kinda slow, so my bad.....hope you still enjoy it now.

thanks for listening

DJ Jazzy Jeff said you need to download this.



via Twitter: @djjazzyjeff215 If u are a True Michael Jackson Fan...Download Dj Jazzy Jeff's..."He's the King...I'm the Dj"

via Nahright.com: Jeff said he was inspired to do the mixtape after fellow DJ Mick Boogie suggested putting his playlist together as a proper release.

“I did it exactly as I would play it out live,” Jeff explained. “I kind of wanted to give a feel like you heard it in a club. I didn’t necessarily want to go in a certain order, ’cause everybody in the world plays certain Michael Jackson songs. And I wanted to play songs that not everyone plays, play some obscure album cuts. And if you listen to it, I have some a capella and versions of songs that not everyone had heard. So, I kind of wanted to mix it up and keep people off guard. Just give them an example of all that Michael was like.”

“After Mike passed, I really started digging, and I found a bunch of stuff that I didn’t know Mike had, especially with the Jackson 5,” Jeff told MTV News. “He had a whole bunch of albums that go completely past people. I think people just go for [popular songs like] ‘I Want You Back,’ ‘Never Can Say Goodbye’ — and there was a bunch of obscure albums that all had really good stuff on them. Then it was hard, because I wanted to keep it one CD and not make it a Mike anthology. I wanted to just make it something that was entertaining, that you could just play from the beginning to end.”

The 49-song mixtape is sponsored by Undcrwrn apparel and will be available for free download on their site starting Monday (October 26), on the eve of premiere of the concert documentary, “Michael Jackson’s This Is It.” The mixtape cover, featuring an illustrated take on Jeff and Smith’s album He’s the DJ, I’m the Rapper, is also printed on a T-shirt from Udrcrwn, retailing for $32.

You may need to play this for your Aunt Deborah, or Uncle Bernard....


Cuz this one may not be for you.....this is that, "Whatchu know about that?!?!?" music.....that play it in the car when you're riding with your mama 'n nem, cuz the music you listen to normally is too vulgar.......that remind your daddy of the blue light in the basement parties he used to try to grind up on yo' mama too when you were just a twinkle in his eye......that music your mama snuck and listened to in her room cuz HER mama wouldn't allow secular music......here's 45 min of some true school slow dancin' R&B...

GoodJoi

Okay, so that other mix decided to it didn't want to be played......so I scrapped it. But I still wanted to get this little heard nugget by Joi out there, so I decided to throw it up, with a couple of my favorite Joi songs. So here's to you, Joi Gilliam-Gipp, aka Mrs. Big Gipp Goodie Mo'.  Rock on, girl.....

Moody


I'm a Taurus, so I'm gonna BE moody. Deal with it. Anyway, that UNSUNG tv show on BET kept me up late one night when they were focused on the DeBarges. Good lord, do they have an interesting story.....then during the trials on Making His Band, they were doing a cover All This Love, and it had me listening to DeBarge & Switch for the last 3 weeks. Hope you enjoy this "the kids sleep and I'm finna take a nap with them" music.

I Miss Zhane'

Dear Jean & Renee'
We miss you two oh so much. You made 2 of arguably the best R&B albums of our era, and definitely of my lifetime. Pronounced Jah-Nay serves as a bookmark of one of the most emotionally trying times of my life, and is the album that got me through that time. I shudder to think of the classic music that could have been made if you two had not decided to go your separate ways after Saturday Night. I mean, can we work something out?
I love y'all. This one is all about you two.

This helped me get thru Humpday

This one includes the vocals of one of the illest MC's/saingers/entertainers/hosts/social network celeb/podcasters....I could go on, but this is one of the most talented brothers I have had the pleasure of being a fan of, Phonte of Little Brother/The Foreign Exchange. Whaddup Tigallo.

Thanks for listening.
