Strictly For The Grown N Sexy.....
From Grimey to Grown N Sexy in one post? C'mon, need you even question?
Faith Evans "Stay Home" - this track is redonkolous on some vintage Michael Jackson ballad sh-t soundwise. I've said it before, Faith Evans is one of the most underrated soul singers in the game.
Teena Marie "Ooh Wee" - the legendary Teena Marie still got it. This sounds like some classic weekender soul sh-t straight out of the 70's (my UK cats know what I mean by this). From her brand new Sapphire album that dropped this week. (Click here for more)
Sleepy Brown feat. Pharrell, Big Boi "Margarita" - more of that great bottle service/model chick hip hop as only Skatebaord P can do it (not saying he produced this cos I don't know that for sure but it has his feel). [original | instrumental]
Isley Brothers featuring R. Kelly "Blast Off" - from the new Baby Making Music album on Def Soul.
Check out Nina Simone legacy recordings here. (related: incredible Nina Simone feature in the new issue of Fader magazine.)
But to end: don't be a jackass like me and buy a Mother's Day card and then wait too long to send it to arrive on time. India Arie is here to save you from that fate so ak right, aight.
