Records from my archives #Random



The Good Girls - Your Sweetness

Old School track from the New Jack Swing Era.





Alfonso Ribeiro - Dance Baby

Bet you didn't know Carlton from Fresh Prince of Bel Air came out with this Michael Jackson inspired sh*t!!





Maze featuring Frankie Beverly - Joy and Pain

I love this song. Did you know that Maze got their name from Marvin Gaye while on tour with him!!





Original Soundtrack to St. Elmo's Fire

I used to love mixing the Planet Rock bonus beats to the love theme from St. Elmo's fire.





Vanessa Williams - Dreaming

Before there was Halle there was Vanessa!!! She was bad one in her day. I still would smash!!





Joyce Fenderella Irby - I'll Be There

Old School slow jam from the lead singer of Klymaxx. I was in the third or fourth grade when this came out. I remember my sister used to play this tape all the time.





Irene Cara - What a Feeling

80's dance song from the Flashdance/Fame era. I wonder what happened to her. She was hot too back then. Maybe she has a twitter or a FB?

5 Shuffle - Volume 5

Its Sunday again so I guess it's time to shuffle my iPod and see what comes on.

First song is...

Donell Jones ft. Left Eye - U Know What's Up

Rest in Peace to Left Eye from TLC. This was the first single off the "Where I Wanna Be" LP. In my opinion, "Where I Wanna Be" is the most slept on R&B album of all time! In my book, it may even be the greatest R&B album ever!!!!



Stevie Wonder - Knocks Me off My Feet

It's funny how this song comes on next and it was covered by Donell Jones. This song is timeless. One of my favorite Stevie songs. "We lay beneath the stars, under a lover's tree that's seen through the eyes of my mind"



Gap Band - Outstanding

Another Soul classic right here. This one gets the oldschool funk parties goin. Charlie Wilson has an incredible voice. "You Blow My Mind, Baby"



De La Soul - Ring Ring Ring (Ha Ha Hey)

Classic Hip Hop from De La. Off the De La Soul is Dead LP. I remember wanting to put the hook to this on my answering machine as a kid.



Shawty Lo - They Know

I'm not really a big fan of this south sound but this track always slapped to me. Maybe it's the sample, or the catchy hook? "Big Ups, all my haters"
