I also love catching the transitioning of sounds between eras. Like when R&B started moving away from slower ballads with sultry saxophones (lol) and moving towards the lighter, younger New Jack Swing sound.

I love those grown folks ballads of the late 80s but Teddy Riley had had enough lol

I also love revisiting songs from the older acts who kept up with the times in the 90s. Barry White, The Whispers and Patti LaBelle come to mind. My mama wore Patti’s ‘The Right Kinda Lover’ to the mf ground lol

My current jam is Miki Howard’s ‘Ain’t Nobody Like You’ (1992). I remember it playing on the radio while my mama cleaned up, and it felt super grown. Like cool grown, not depressing grown lol

A depressing grown folk song to me back in the 90s was Anita Baker’s ‘Fairy Tales.’ That song broke my lil heart😭

Phyllis Hyman’s ‘Living All Alone’ also wrecked me, along with Patti’s ‘On My Own.’ Like, I didn’t even wanna grow up, man. Shit seemed so sad😩

Phyllis Hyman’s ‘When you get right down to it’ still goes tho.

I miss talking about music with people on this app. It’s pretty much crickets now.

Loving this rain right now.🌧️

I wanna go to an artist talk later but my hair looks like the wig Mekhi Phifer had on in 8 Mile smh

I was in too deep like Mekhi Phife lol

Spike Lee’s ‘HIGHEST 2 LOWEST’ is now playing in select theaters.

Mean girls don’t mature. They just get older and meaner.

Dear summer…

Kinda wanna slip on a cute dress and go get a cocktail🍸

Wish I was in a sexy city or had more sexy locations near me.

You don’t get too many hot summer Fridays.

The world is better with you in it.

Taking a break from this app. It’s straight trash now.✌🏾
