Song of the Day

Hello World.  Today's song comes from Mary Mary.  They are by far my favorite gospel duo.  Mary Mary's songs are incredibly inspirational and uplifting and they are sometimes the only thing other than praying that help me get my day started.  Go Get It is a song that tells you not to sit and wait on your blessing and not to let your blessing pass you by.  Go get your blessing today everybody.  It may be scary and it may seem hard but never stand in your own way.  Achieve your goals and never let anyone stand in your way.  Stay soulful and be blessed.

Song of the Day

Hey Young World! Get your week started off right with some intellectual, socioeconomic insight from Nas.  Today's song, Black Girl Lost, comes from the album It Was Written.  Black Girl Lost describes the mentality of the young black female.  Black girls deal with and have dealt with low self-esteem and self deprecating behavior.  We allow men to do what they want with our treasures and we don't even view our treasures as treasures anymore.  We give up our souls for physical and material pleasures, not realizing that we come from queens and conducting ourselves as such.  Balck Girl Lost should be heard by all black girls in America.  Get a picture of who you are and change for the better.  This does not have to be your end.  Black girls, love yourselves and learn your worth.  Enjoy your day people and lift one another up in this ever falling society.  Stay peaceful and be blessed.

Song of the Day

Hey young World! Today is such a beautiful day and I hope you all enjoy it.  Today song comes from Chicago artist Fess Grandiose.  I first witnessed Fess perform at the ESC Radio Live Show when he performed with Impolite Society and I was extremely pleased.  The man has bars.  Another lyrical talent coming from the Chi.  There is some talent out here people, we just have to keep supporting the real.  Nothing like real well rounded music to get your day going.  The song of the day is Another Dilla Beat Pt. 1&2 produced by the late J Dilla.  You know if he's on a J Dilla beat he has to be raw. Listen and enjoy your day.  Grind and Shine people.  Stay soulful and be blessed.

Song of the Day

Hey. I hope everyone had a wonderful Mother's Day.  I did.  Lord, I love my mama.  Anyway, today's song comes from UK Hip Hop Duo Rizzle Kicks.  Rizzle Kicks is comprised of long time friends  Jordan "Rizzle" Stephens  and Harley "Sylvester" Alexander-Sule.  They have been making a lot of noise in the UK lately and from what I've heard, I can definitely understand why.  The song of the day, Down with the Trumpets, comes from their debut album Stereo Typical.  Down with the Trumpets makes me want to dance or drive around Hyde Park in my car.  This song is so much fun.  I'm really feeling this joint.  Rizzle Kicks keep it up.  Everyone enjoy your day and let your light shine.  Stay soulful and be blessed.

Freestyle Battle

Aye, sooo. Have you all heard about the upcoming battle between Chicago's Nick E. Nixon and Young Streets.  It's about to go down. Young Streets just posted a video talking about how he is about to WHOOP Nick E. Nixon ASS in this battle.  Nixon has not replied to comments, so you know the bars are building for Nixon.  A quiet man might rip you to shreds.  Nick E. Nixon, where you at? We need to know what's up.  But I guess we will here you at the battle. OOOOH, I can't wait.
