Heart beats to the drum


"Look what you're doing to me" feat Jazzanova & Phonte --> I LOVE THIS JOINT TO DEATH!! Phonte showin' off his harmonizing skills on this one.   I've had had this song for a couple years and gives me the same feeling everytime I hear it.  I heard it playing in Best Buy and was quite surprised!


Definitely feeling this video from my man, Mr. Ray. "No mans land" is from his recent mixtape. If you aint heard the, B.o.B vs. Bobby Ray you are missing some quality music. Still rollin' to his rendition of Bonita Applebum!!!



"Breakfast" feat. Curren$y --> This joint is pretty sick, produced by Mos Def...feelin' it.



"Beast" Feat. Wale --> Another 9th Wonder track with Wale...I don't know about yall but I felt Wale's freshmen album was solid but not fiya like a lot of the songs that are out there, maybe it was a business move to not make this album classic?? FYI: his record didn't do so hot with sales but shoot that is neither here or there, I know he is trying to build a fan base the old fashion way (Wale's words not mine)



"Sledgehammer" feat. Maiysha --> Nice soulful voice...real chill. Feelin' it.  Apparently she is also a Grammy nominated artist as well.  I can see why. - update:  this was the original....Peter Gabriel's "Sledgehammer"



"Strange Fruit" feat. Common & John Legend --> I think you all may recognize this beat from somewhere else - update:just in case you couldn't figure out where this one was used first, it was with Cassidy on his last album B.A.R.S. called "celebrate."



"So far from home" feat. Jazzanova & Phontigga --> This song is from a while back and one of my many favorites from Phonte.  Good ish as usual!

  2. Thank you! Yeah, start with his latest single "put me on"

    FYI everyone: The Foreign Exchange is up for a Grammy in the "best urban group" category. I know I am one of their biggest fans. They make SOME great music. About time they got some acclaim they deserve!!!!
