A la la la la long....

I spent my Friday listening to my reggae root Pandora station yesterday.

Ahhh, was dreaming myself away to Jamaica.. but uhm, back to the topic.

So today I came across Inner Circle "Sweat" (A la la long) music video.

What I noticed is that music has changed soooo much over the past 15 years (ok now I feel super old).

If you watch the video, you see everybody just having fun, laughing, dancing and enjoying life. 

In today's music videos it's all about "less is more" - factor. Half nekkid women, make up, sex, weaves, ass... all that BS.

 And "surprisingly", the music today has just decreased it's value (in my opinion).

Today's focus on image is greater than the actual music.

Man I miss the good old days, when MVT played music videos and pop ups...

How did we lose it all....?

Breakfast at Tiffany's THROWBACK VIDEO

This is a throwback from many many years ago... 1995! Wow... thats over 15 years ago..

Well anyways I used to sing a long to this song (I was 9 then lol) and the song just popped up in my head like 5 minutes ago. Thank God for YouTube!

Not sure if I love the song simply because of the song or if it's beacuse the video was shot in NYC..

Either way... Enjoy....

Throwback; Total - Kissing You

A lil' throwback video never hurts now does it?

The old P!nk

I'm probably one of many that prefer the "old/first" P!nk. The R&B P!nk.

I know she generated more with her rocky style, but I really liked her first album that she released.

She was still rocky and anti-man attitude was still there, lol.

"Most girls" which is one of my personal favorites was released 2000 through LaFace. Enjoy.

Artful Dodger and that era

'The Craig David'-era in UK music was my favorite.
I think that's when I knew music was more than just something you listen to.
It's a lifestyle, a way of living. 'Born to do it' is probably my second album purchased where I liked all the tracks!!
Anyways, people who were alert during this time also remembers Artful Dodger. Boy oh boy, these tunes were really poppin' and still are!!
Browsing around on Youtube, I came across this throwback song. Enjoy!

I need a hood boy, wife beaters and jeans

While I'm still on my Fantasia topic I wanna throw in this song too.
"Hood Boy" feat Big Boi.
Fantasia always got some cute guys in her videos. Ay caramba.
My friend just happened to be in the "When I see you" video.
He's eyecandy too.... Gwan with ur badself 'Tasia :-)

Throwback Fantasia

While shopping with Faith at Nordstrom's Rack they played this song.
It used to be one of my favorite songs. Actually, it still is.
Fantasia - Free yourself
Enjoy!

Under the bridge....

While I'm still going through some throwback songs/videos....
'member this? Not too sure if the Americans would know this group, but it's a British group called All Saints.
This Red Hot Chilli Peppers cover is by far the best trac kthey did.
Lonely as I am, together we cry....

Miss Winehouse

Where is Amy?

Haven't heard no BS about her in a minute now.

Anyways this is one of my favorite Amy tracks!

Enjoy!
