Deshun – “chooselove” (Prod. By Z-Wil)
March 7, 2018
Tell me what you really do for love…
Salute Deshun. This “chooselove” work done with producer Z-Wil is worthy. Nice funky bop to the song. For grooving at the crib, or rolling out spontaneously, pick this one!
CeeLo Green – “Brick Road” (Prod. By Vinny Venditto x YNIG)
February 27, 2018
Can you smell me?
Follow the CeeLo “Brick Road”… but watch your step. CeeLo singing about cooking up dope and going on ‘trips’ (e.g. using said dope) is going to get deep.

Mélat x Jansport J – “Move Me II: The Present” (Album Stream)
February 26, 2018
Sooo… what’d you think about “Push” jawn with Melat & Jansport J doing that work (that we posted on here last month)? C’mon, we already know you liked it. Rhetorical question. Want to hear more? Like the entire album stream for FREE?
Again… rhetorical.

R&B: Mya – “You Got Me” (Prod. By MyGuyMars)
February 23, 2018
Right before I leave, I’mma give you all you need.
Wow! Got another sizzler from Mya well ahead of the warm months. Still a sexy “It’s All About Me” vibe (can’t believe it’s been 20 years since that dropped), but now we get “You Got Me.” Hmmm… if only, Mya. If only…
Jesse Boykins III – Earth Girls (Prod. By DJ Dahi) [Video]
February 22, 2018
What the…? Is that Rosario Dawson in there?! Okay, you can go get that “Bartholomew” album (see link below) after watching this “Earth Girls” video once. But er… we might stick around and watch again… just to confirm that that was indeed the sultry Ms. Dawson. Her presence and essence goes with the vibe of the music. Soulful. Good work and salute to Jesse Boykins III and DJ Dahi!

Ne-Yo – “Good Man” (Video)
February 16, 2018
Ha! Go’on ‘head then player! The Chosen dropped them lines in this jawn!
I just wanna pick the phone up every time you call…
I wanna be chillin’ with Obama talkin’ business, see your call, and tell him…
“Hold up. I gotta take this.”
Let the world wait.
Mereba – “Black Truck”
February 14, 2018
Okay. Respect due. Mereba checks all the relevant boxes – repping the A-T-L well, putting out the good tunes, down with the majorest of majors (i.e. Interscope) out West. Nothing left to do but check out “Black Truck” and hear what that do, too.
Phabo – “1-800-143-PHAB” (Prod. By G. Ry)
February 9, 2018
Hot… HOT… HOT! Feels like that Art Of Noise “Moments In Love” vibe from back in the day. Like getting real close and holding ’em tight in a tightly-spaced apartment. It’s still cold out, so get it in! This ought to be on some kind of ‘cuffing season’ soundtrack. Haaa!
Sy Ari Da Kid – “Read Receipts” feat. Eric Bellinger (Prod. By Natra Average)
February 9, 2018
Is it like this out there now, people? Sometimes you gotta ask if it’s worth going through all of that ‘verifying’… On the upside, that Natra Average beat is smoking!

Chris Brown – “State Of The Union”
February 2, 2018
So… to say that C Breezy’s take on “The State Of The Union” is different than what we heard from President Trump a couple of nights ago is… an understatement. Appropriate, because this joint is ‘understated’ (but you will feel it).
Watch This Short Film On The History And Musical Impact Of The Soulquarians (Documentary)
January 31, 2018
The Soulquarians were born at the Electric Lady Studios. Questlove and D’Angelo loving to make music with sickness in it. Common & Erykah Badu came in and got down with the sickness. The fam kept growing… and the brothers James (Poyser and Yancey) rounded out the core… but the story certainly doesn’t stop there…
In 1998, the Neo-Soul movement was near its peak when a collective of like-minded artists came together to push the wave even higher. They called themselves the Soulquarians, and before the decade ended they’d help birth some of the modern era’s greatest recordings.
– Pitchfork
Watch how ‘sick’ the crew would get. Nice!

R&B: Keith Sweat – “How Many Ways” feat. K-Ci
January 25, 2018
Send the kids out the room. Keith Sweat and K-Ci (of Jodeci fame) have connected to cook up some of that 90’s R&B that likely got some of them young’ns here in the first place! Haaaa!
August Greene – “Optimistic” feat. Brandy
January 22, 2018
A better day tomorrow will bring.
Know what though? That better day can be today. Draw energy and inspiration from this jazzy “Optimistic” track by August Greene (featuring Brandy). Oh, by the way, for those not yet knowing, August Greene is actually a trio of artists – Common, Robert Glasper, and Karriem Riggins. Nice!

Mélat – “Push” (Prod. By Jansport J)
January 21, 2018
Mélat and†Jansport J doing some dope work. So nice to have this niceness to post today. Give this “Push” joint a play. Cool vibe to it. Might inspire you and that somebody to dance a bit; or nod approvingly to the beat with it.
