Missing Teeth

This is my jammmm of the day..I woke up this morning with a smile on my face and some fuckitall in my system...nothing can get under my skin today :) .A person's surroundings and situations can only affect them as much as they allow them to. I am the only one who has control over my mind. I choose how I react to daily situations and my surroundings. In other words, I control my own happiness and no one has the power to make me feel otherwise. I do not harbor negative thoughts or welcome negative people into my life...soo if you come around my way with your negative nancy pants on, I'm gonna put my headphones on and chuck a deuce in your direction :)

We Don't Need Tomorrow To See Today

Do your ears a serious favor and watch the video for 'See Today' by Soulcrate. This song is amazing and truly unique...I've never heard anything like this! 'See Today' is the first Soulcrate song I have listened to...in all honesty, this was the first time I even heard of them. I wish I would have discovered Soulcrate sooner because this is the type of music my ears have been craving. For as long as I can remember, I've been searching for a new style of energetic music that has a high regard for soul and classic hip-hop. Since listening to this song, I have downloaded all of the Soulcrate music I can find. Every Soulcrate song that I have come across has an amazing ability to captivate the listener, draw them in even deeper, and leave them clinging to every last poetic word. I am sooooo happy that Soulcrate is the newest stepping stone on my musical journey...what an awesome direction I'm headed in!

Eyes Like X's Tounges Like Figure 8's

I first heard this song back in November 2009 when I bought 'Felt 3: A Tribute Rosie Perez'. I enjoyed the song back then, but I LOVE it now. 'Give It Up' has been my jammmmm recently. I have been of fan of Murs and Slug since as long as I can remember. They both have a unique musical style and are able to make a powerful impression with their rhymes. Murs and Slug are amazing as individual artists, but there is just something about them when they collaborate. I can't really explain it, but I just love how Murs and Slug can flow so smoothly back and forth. Ahhh, it is like sexxx to my ears! As a fan, I know I will always be able to count on them to fly high above the pathetic 'hip-hop-rap-pop'  tsunami the rest of the music industry is drowning in.

Just For Show

For awhile now, I have been trying to decide which song on Atmosphere's new album is my favorite. 'The Family Sign' is one of those rare albums that you can listen to on repeat. Every time I listen to it I connect to a different song....however, I may have come to the conclusion that track number 4, 'Just For Show' is my favorite. This song tugs on my heartstrings in a good way - in a way that pumps me up, it puts me in a fantastic mood! I love when Slug just tells it like it is

GOODbye!

I love the feeling of playing an old mixed CD and falling into a song from my past. I used to rockkk outt to this song but somewhere down the road it became lost in the clusterfuck of anonymous mixed CDs scattered throughout my car. Anyways, I fished this CD out, popped it into the player, and fell in love with it all over again. I love, Love, love, musical trips down memory lane!

Bloody Poetry

Check out Grieves' new song Bloody Poetry from his upcoming album Together/Apart. I am a big fan of him and used to post his music in my old blog....which means I will have to post some of his throw backs later. Grieves is an incredibly talented artist that intertwines pure poetry and music to take you on a musical journey inside of yourself. I find so much comfort and advice in his words and I can't wait to hear his new album!
