Real Talk Tuesdays: Mos Def

Three months, she call 'I feel I'm runnin a fever'
Six months, I'm tellin her I desperately need her
Nine months, flu-like symptoms when shorty not around
I need more than to knock it down I'm really tryin to lock it down

Mos, I know the feeling.......

Madhouse Mondays: Joey Marlowe

Me in 20 years....

 

Real Talk Tuesdays:  Marriage

Some folks marry because they get knocked up.  Others marry their high school sweethearts not knowing just how much growing they have ahead of them.  Still others marry for money or to meet the expectations of their families.  I married my best friend.  Can't tell you how good that feels.

 

Feel Good Fridays: The Ronettes

Brb......gettin' hitched.

 

Throwback Thursdays:  TLC

Last night I covered for my buddy Mingram (who is traveling around Spain) at his weekly gig - 90s night.  It was a meager, inconsistant crowd but Linds and I put away our weight in gin and vodka and sang along to every last tune on the playlist.  By the end of the night the crowd had cleared leaving only us and the bartender.  I dropped this cut, Linds did the Left Eye rap.
