9/18/2023 0 Comments Raheem devaughn anytime anyplaceGotta add something current to the list and I can’t think of anything better to add than TheWeeknd’s latest offering. Songs to really focus on are: “Flamenco Sketches,” “Blue in Green” and “So What.” It’s suitable for a nice home cooked, candle lit dinner, while also suitable for post coital cuddling. It’s the sort of music that is both conversational and romantic. Miles knocked it out the box with this one. This is the album that changed the face of Jazz music. My favorite joints for the cuffing music playlist include: “Purple Rain,” “Take Me With You” and “The Beautiful Ones.” As an aside, if you really like “The Beautiful Ones,” Mariah has an awesome remake of this joint on her album “Butterfly” featuring Dru Hill. Never before and not since this album has anyone ever captured the musical sweet spot that sits between funk, rock, soul and rhythm and blues. My favorite album of that decade, and the most important album of that decade for me was Prince’s “Purple Rain.” The joint is just perfect. If you ask most people, the most important album of the 1980’s was Michael Jackson’s “Thriller.” While I won’t deny the cultural importance of MJ’s joint, it is not my favorite album of that decade. Songs to add to the playlist for this album include: “That’s The Way Love Goes,” “Again,” and “Anytime, Anyplace.” By far, my favorite Janet album – especially during cuffing season. This was the first album where Janet went totally R&B on us and let us see just how sensual and loving she could be. It was like she said, you know what, I’m a fully grown woman, I love sex, and I’m going to sing about it. Other songs to add to the playlist from this album are “Kiss of Life” and “Cherish the Day.” It was really difficult to choose between this, Sade’s third album and the first album “Diamond Life.” The trump card in this game is the classic “No Ordinary Love.” Is it possible to not love “No Ordinary Love” – particularly the extended seven minute album version? Wow. Key songs to add to the playlist are: “Panty Dropa,” “I Invented Sex,” and “Neighbors Know My Name.” Where as Voodoo makes you wanna make love, Ready makes you wanna bone. Thankfully, Trey Song dropped “Ready” right on time. Making love to his joints just seems to skeevy. I’m not sure if you’re like me, but after all of the allegations, I had to remove all R.Kelly songs from my love making playlist. Songs to add to your playlist include: “Devil’s Pie,” “Send it On,” and of course “Untitled (How Does it Feel).” Voodoo is so subtly smooth and soulful that when it plays, you can’t help but want to make sweet, slow, passionate love all day and all night long. Voodoo is the kind of album you you put on when the forecast reads rain all weekend and you’re planning on spending the entire time with someone special. Forget about the fact that he got caught soliciting a prostitute in the park. Key songs to add to your rotation include “Cry For You” and “Feenin.”įorget about the fact that D’Angelo looks like ODB’s long lost twin brother. It introduced us to an unknown producer named Timbaland and an unknown producer/singer named “Misdemeanor” who later became Missy Elliot. Diary of Mad Band is Jodeci’s magnum opus. If you don’t have this in your collection – you fail at life. This right here is my official cuffing season soundtrack. But before all that, let’s make sure you got your music together. Next week the homey Streetz is going to bless you with the how to guide for getting your cuff on. Today is the first Friday of cuffing season which means many of you will be boo-caking all weekend. When I think of elementary school and my neighborhood growing up I hear B.I.G’s “Ready To Die.” When I think of my first crush – in 6 th grade, I hear Tevin Campbells “Can We Talk” and “I’m Ready.” When I think of high school all I hear is Hov. There are moments and memories I look back on that are imbued with the the songs that mattered most at the time. For me music has the power to influence and shape my world. For some folks music is nothing more than accompaniment, something that plays in the background of everything else going on with little or no influence on our actions.
