Moombahton Mondays
I decided to start a weekly blog post of my favorite Moombahton tracks. A lot of folks, (particularly patrons of the parties I play hip hop/soul/funk at), have been asking about Moombahton.

I got an early birthday present from my man this last weekend. He bought me two tickets to see the legendary Gil Scott Heron at Yoshi’s this last Saturday. Though man man was unable to be my date that night, I was blessed to have brought my favorite mother/MC/Artist/heroine homies, Melina Jones. Who turned out to be perfect company.
The night was full of warmth & laughter from Gil Scott...

SPOTTIE (new diggs)
I could never spell it but “spottieottiedopaliscious” (because i google checked) has one of my favorite hooks in any song in the world. There are not any real words to the chorus but you’ll have EVERYONE humming to the melody when you play it and all will be getting mad hype.
