Turn up Thursdays - 4.3.25

 Good morning!

Did I think it was Friday when I woke up this morning? Indeed I did! But we are not there yet my friends, but it is on the horizon! 

I'm also off this Sunday so I'm trying to finish up all my school work so I can have one full day to just relax! Do I have a paper that I haven't started? Absolutely! So, we shall see how this goes. Wish me luck! But here are some tunes to get us to Friday and hopefully push me into starting this paper. 

Enjoy : )

1. Sweet Thing - Rufus, Chaka Khan

2. Sittin' Up In My Room - Brandy

3. Castle on Irish Bayou - Andrew Duhon

4. (Your Love Keeps Lifting Me) Higher & Higher

5. Nosebleeds - Doechii

6. Oscar Winning Tears - RAYE, The Heritage Orchestra

7. Don't Let Me Be Misunderstood - Nina Simone 

Until next time,

Turn up Thursdays - 3.20.25

 Oh hello!

Someway, somehow it has been an absolute dumpster fire of a week! I still feel like I'm trying to play catch-up from Mardi Gras, still somehow tired from daylight savings, there was a blood moon, apparently Mercury is in gatorade again, it is just never ending! I can't wait for the weekend to get here, thankfully I'm off Sunday and planning on cocooning in my house and I may never come out again!

But, until I get there, here are the new songs I added to the playlist, enjoy! 

1. Black & White - Teddy Swims feat. Muni Long

2. Little Homies - Vince Staples

3. Etouffee - Vince Staples

4. House On Fire - Mimi Webb

5. The Vow - RuthAnne

6. It's Givin - Latto

7. Watch Me Shine - Joanna Pacitti (might be time for a Legally Blonde rewatch!)

8. Neva Play - Megan Thee Stallion feat. RM

Tunes Tuesday - 3.11.25

 Hello all! 

Ok, I can't keep calling it Music Monday, if I'm barely posting on Mondays, lol! Thankfully, Tunes Tuesday works just as well as Music Mondays!

I had to take a mental health day yesterday because coming down from Mardi Gras/life/daylight savings, hit me all at once! It was a super lovely day of napping and recharging (apparently it was International Napping Day, so it worked out perfectly!) and I'm ready to go again! 

But, without further ado, here are the new songs that I have added. Please enjoy : )

1. Pop Ya Shit - Lady London

2. Take My Breath Away - Ezi

3. Through Heaven's Eyes - Brian Stokes Mitchell (I think it's beyond time for a Prince of Egypt rewatch!)

4. Witchy - KAYTRANADA, Childish Gambino

5. Take Me or Leave Me - Idina Menzel, Tracie Thoms

Until next time, 

love,
