Welcome to another Memphis Edition of the Monday Mixtape. Memphis Blues Part 2 aka the Marriage Blues. When I go to different cities, I like to pick up on the musical tastes of those around me and the various night spots we hang out in. This time around what I noticed the most were that the most popular songs were about cheating…and not just cheating…serious adultery was being committed in these songs. Women..Men…they both were singing about sneaking around on their spouses. Stories, advice, caution…a person could pick up a lot of tips if one was so inclined
J Holiday gives us a new version of Kanye’s Love Lockdown…I like it…I told yall this would be the year of the Milk and Cookies!
This week I was inspired by Barack Obama. He always plays “Signed, Sealed, Delivered” by Stevie Wonder at the end of his campaign speeches. At first it kinda baffled me because Obama is in his mid forties. Then I remembered that it was probably his “Old School” choice. Every generation will have their “Old School” and I shudder to think that this stuff playing now will be the “Old School” choices for my 9 year old daughters (cringe).
Welcome to another Monday Mixtape! The early millennium was a fun time for me. Also a very trying time…full of deceit and it just so happens that the music reflects my moods. I have everything from Gospel, Dance R&B, The Sexy South to hard core MOP. Enjoy!
