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,

I hope that everyone is recovered after the Superbowl, I still feel full from last night! If a team had to win, I'm glad it was the Eagles!
