5 songs. Randomly. My iphone.
Let's go!
1.Who loves you more | Phonte featuring Eric Roberson
Great song! I love the way Phonte tells a story.
2. Booty | Erykah Badu
Something like a anthem! Badu is THE master. Go jam... My booty may be bigger...
3. Flamenco Sketches | Miles Davis
Beauty, found, claimed and loved. This song is everything I need.
4. Changed Man | Joe
Joe is a songwriter and story teller like no other. This song evokes emotion and makes you pray he gets his woman back.
5. Show me your glory | Karen Clark Sheard
Of course a Clark sister would end up on my list! One of my favorite vocalists of all time.. Karen Clark Sheard pleds for God to show is glory in this song. By the last 15 seconds.. I'm slain.

New Music Tuesday | Black Radio
Robert Glasper.
Two words I love to hear. His name brings a dreamy smile upon my face. (I'm something like a fan)
Today is highly anticipated album "Black Radio" was released.
I grabbed it via iTunes around midnight.
I must say.. I am EVEN more impressed with him now than I was before. I've been a fan for years, and he seems to keep evolving into something greater. (thats the plan)
Check the album out here: Robert Glasper and BUY it.!
My favorites:
"Ah Yeah" Featuring Chrisette Michelle & Musiq
"Move Love" Featurning KING
"Cherish the Day" (Sade cover) Featuring Lalah Hathaway
" A Letter to Hermoine" (David Bowie cover) Featuring Bilal
Go Jam.

Musically Changed | thought of the day
Two addictions: Music & Photography.
That being said, I wanted to share with you one of my favorite ablums.
12 years ago yesterday, an album that pretty much changed how I felt about the R&B and Neo-Soul genre... Pretty much music in general was released.
{D'Angelo's Voodoo} Released 1.25.00
Today I will relive those moments I felt when I first heard this album. Magic. Pure Magic.
Musically changed. Forever.
Thank you D'Angelo. I've created some of the best memories to your music.

5 (not so) Random Songs | Song I'm playing on repeat
Music lover here... to the point that I'll turn around if I'm out and I don't have my headphones with me.
That being said, I tend to fall in love with a song and play it OUT. To the point where those around me hate the song before it even becomes a single on the radio.
Today's post is all about the songs I'm playing on repeat this week.
1. "Ah Yeah" - Robert Glasper Experiment featuring Christette Michelle & Musiq
This song is pretty much everything right now. It's the first song released off of Robert's forthcoming album "Black Radio" This song lets me know that the album is FULL of magic. I can't wait for it to drop.
2. "Hey" - KING
So.. I found this song by accident. I was on itunes the other day and the nice little "if you like them, you'l like this" situation hit me and BOOM. My love for KING grew instantly. The melodic tones of this song, and lyrics like "hey, you are what I saw, when I saw that shooting start" =WEAK. I've found a shooting star and that line alone makes me hit repeat at least twice.
3. "Valediction" - The Foreign Exchange
From their Grammy nomiated album 'Leave It All Behind", this song is the story of a break up. Short and straight to the point. Phonte croons " No need to take off your coat, no need to take off your shoes." Basically.. BYE! The music of the song is equally melodic. Check it out!
4. "We are One" - Frankie Beverly & MAZE with Raheem Devaughn
If this song doesn't make you snap and groove, I don't know WHAT will! And lyrics just reel you in.. 'We are one.. and that's the way it is", Well then!
5. "Your latter will be greater" - Israel & New Breed
This song is shaping my 2012. I know that God has much more in store for me than I could EVER dream or think of. My latter WILL BE GREATER! Just listen to the song and be ENCOURAGED!
Happy Wednesday Ya'll
Go jam.
Love,
Candace
