It is Tuesday, you don’t want to be at work but you do want to feel good. Get into it, shake your arms around, smile at that bitch you hate on the job. Have fun with it.

Enjoy!

The new Musiq Soulchild tune gets turned up every time it comes on the radio, can’t explain it, just know it happens. Take a listen and maybe it will happen to you too. . .

The official video (below) just went up today, I happen to be the 311th viewer, lets see if this tune takes off or not.

Girl I can tell you everything, you can ask me anything

After you get the snow shoveled and the fire started, grab that special friend close and take a listen to the Jordan Years “Warm Me Up”.

It goes great with any wine or spirit on a day like today Chicago.

HAPPY HOLIDAYS!!! Here’s a sweet little  chunk of  Christmas funk from The Jive Turkeys (Cincinnati, OH). Can you believe this was recorded and released in 2010!?!  Think I’ll be leaving  tequila and tamales out for Santa this year… He’s got to be sick of milk and cookies by now, right? Colemine Records has been consistently releasing some great records. Raise your eggnog and celebrate with friends, family and soul from Colemine Records! Down the hatch!

This is my kind of collaboration! Me’shell Ndegeocello on bass, Q-Tip on the intro, Erykah Badu on the outro and I haven’t even mentioned that beat yet! The RH Factor is one of the best collaborations of jazz, hip hop and soul artists, much love and respect to Roy Hargrove! I want to record something like this at WTR!!!

Enjoy your Thursday!

Be sure to check out The Congregation’s CD release party Dec 11th @ Reggies, also they will be performing at my 36th Birthday bash!!! Lets get drunk!

God this brings me back to my days wanting to marry Nia Long, wait I still do! Love Jones was a great Chicago movie with plenty of scenes shot in Wicker Park. Anyway, love Me’shell and equally Marcus of course. This is like a  bass players dream song, two bad asses on the low end and a song that is actually listenable. . .

“If you feel the same for me, the way I feel for you, I’ll rush over…”

Its exactly a month from my 36th birthday, lets pregame y’all! Oh yeah there will be a party…

Alright so normally I try and space out the Songs of the Day and do a week at a time or something, This week I happen to be behind schedule so at the end of the night after I have had a few two/tree beers I play catch up.  This particular Song of the Day goes out to Mr Todd Pot who at one time was uncool enough to be hanging around my ass on the regular. Brings me back to when Rocketship Arnold were the opening act for any random group coming to Fireside Bowl. . .

Oh yeah and I’m coming off the election deal so I feel All American. Tie-in bonus!
