Switching Lanes

Sorry y'all I've been really off my rocker. This 12 Days of Boogie really took off! We've had over 10,000 views this month, much more than I expected. It's definitely a step in the right direction. I promise to get at y'all this weekend, but until then here's another rhyme I dropped. It's called "Switching Lanes".


I understand if this transition’s a little scary/
Slightly nerve-wrecking; a tad intimidating/
For us it's brand new/
But girl I plan to/Refresh you/
With a love designed to be invigorating
It seems like you’re ready to switch lanes/
I got my signal on too; I’m trying to do the same/
The reason? Well you had an All-Star season/
So please don’t let my strong offer be in vain/
You possess a balance I’ve been desperately wanting/
Before finding you, I wondered did it exist/
We talk of cuddling up, watching Heat vs. Celtics/
Followed by making love to “More About Nothing” (Wale!)/
And while your frame is Fantastic Four/
My “Thing” is your personality; turns me on more/
Your insight’s engaging/
Attitude amazing/
Intellect so incredible, it’s subconsciously sexual/
Thoughts of us invoke quite the escapade/
I feel it’s fate that this is meant to escalate/
No limits to what we will do from what we say/
Because I invest in your well-being, like E*Trade/
I can’t forget the stories you’ve told of deep pain/
Those feelings of hurt from which you look to abstain/
But I’m here to walk with you and help you seek gain/
Reflecting strength from your side mirror as you switch lanes.

Choose Your Artist- Ron Isley vs Charlie Wilson

As a youth my uncle, the late Marvin Hawkins, would foster my love of reading and basketball by giving me his collection of a little known magazine named Basketball Digest. The book contained great articles, stats, and previews of NBA teams and players. My favorite segment of the magazine however was titled "One on One". The segment compared NBA players past or present against each other. It took the talks from barbershops, cookouts, and old men playing chess and provided a grading system to validate naming one player over the other. Today, we take this great concept and transfer it to the world of music. In this new segment "Choose Your Artist", artists from various eras are pitted against their peers, their new age renditions, and even themselves to determine who music stars are the best of the best!  Throughout the 70s and 80s, The Isley Brothers and Gap Band lavished us with incredible music. Songs like "That Lady (Part 1)", "Summer Breeze...
