In the current rotation vol. 8: Tyās pickš½ As I continue to build this series, I wanted to expand it to asking the people closest to me how they feel about the music they listen to.
It goes deeper than just listening to a song as it pertains to resonating with a message, how it relates to you, and the world around you. The questions I asked Tyson was intentional as I wanted to go beyond the surface on how these songs make him feel.
Iām interested in discovering more about how others see and feel music so Iām looking forward to more collaborations with this series.

A Very Baddie Christmasššin the current rotation vol. 7 features some of my favorite holiday tracks catered to my fellow black girls! To the girls who grew up listening to Destinyās Child and the Cheetah Girls these songs have the 90s rnb sound that puts you in the holiday spirit.
I love how these songs take the traditional Christmas classics and flip it in a new way. The theme of getting closer to that special someone this holiday season is streamlined in each song in their own unique way.

Poetic Flowš”{in the current rotation vol. 6} ā focuses on a taste of conscious/influential rap that emphasizes lyrical technicality through writing and layering sounds. Concepts such as love, financial success, and the art of slowing down covered in each song offers an authentic perspective that makes them relevant to this day. Thereās a lot of great artists from this category but these are a few of my favorites that I always make my way back to!

Weāre back with a fresh in the current rotation ā neo-soul/rnb editionš¶ For this edition I highlighted how each song covers a different characteristic of the genre whether itās melody, rhythm, instrumentalism, or lyricism. I admire the depth and variety that is embodied through rnb and soul as itās timeless nature allows it to have so many sub-categories. All these songs provide a different feeling that brings you into a story under the umbrella of love, introspection, and self discovery.

Juneteenth is an ode to the ancestors who fought before us and a celebration of the sacredness of African American culture. We have seen how our history has been buried, erased, and hidden not just under the current administration but throughout the history of this nation.
Itās important to be aware and educate ourselves about our victories, struggles, and advancements within the Black experience in America and share with our peers.
Have a safe and joyous Juneteenthš¤
