Music Monday - 8.18.25

 Hello all, 

Every single time I think that it hasn't been that long since I've done a Music Monday, I look and it's been like a month!

But, we are back! The world is an absolute dumpster fire, but I was able to travel back home for Charlotte's baby shower and Aisha's birthday and so the horrors may persist, but so do I : )

Anywho, it is our first day of fall semester and I can't believe another semester is underway. So, here is a playlist to kick off the start of the school year. Enjoy! 

1. Shinunog E-Wa - Fujii Kaze

2. Meant to Be - Bebe Rexha, Florida Georgia Line

3. Hey Cowboy - Devon Cole

4. Die With A Smile - Lady Gaga, Bruno Mars (I think this was already on the playlist somewhere, but oh well!)

5. Baby Will You Love Me - Major. 

6. Chariot - Mega

7. DIRT ON MY SHOES - Leon Thomas, Kehlani

8. Damage Control - Culture Jam, Wale, Pusha T

9. Elegantly Wasted - Hermanos Gutierrez, Leon Bridges

10. CRASHOUT - Lizzo 

Until next time, 

                            love,

Music Monday - 4.28.25

 Hello again! 

You ever have those weekends where as soon as you log out on Friday, you know that it's going to go by in a blink of an eye? Well, that was me with the past two weekends! 

Easter weekend was a wonderful blur of Sinners, brunch, Charlotte's 30th birthday celebrations, a birthday brunch, gender reveal, and Easter Sunday. 

And this weekend was a blur of Sinners, trying to rest, a Titanic immersive exhibit, food, and errands. I feel like we are about to hit mid-year and this is where stuff always starts to pick up for me. 

So, since it is basically Christmas already, lets get you some more music to enjoy : )

1. So This Is Love - Sneha

2. "LUCKY" - TISH HYMAN

3. La Vie En Rose - Edith Piaf

Until next time, 

                        love, 

                                ktv

Charlotte is thirty, flirty, and thriving!

The best!
