Artist- The White Stripes
Song- Hello Operator

I was pleasantly surprised to see The White Stripes on the list of candidates for the rock hall of fame. Some of their work before the White Blood Cells album gets overlooked a bit. Here’s one of my favorites, from the De Stijl album.

Song- Buffalo Stance

Been listening to a ton of late 80’s and early 90’s music. This song always stands out. This video is exactly what the 80’s turning into the 90’s looked like.

Side note- let’s get into some of our favorite female emcees.

Good way to start a Monday.

Known for the House Party films, Kid 'n Play were pretty good performers when New Jack Swing was a prominent sound. I know I still do the famous “Kick Step” lol

Song- Emergency On Planet Earth

What do you get when you mix hip hop, funk, rock, jazz, disco, and soul? You get Acid Jazz.

This song features a sick bass line from Stuart Zender and some great vocals.

Song- Beggar

My country music knowledge is dicey at best, just not my cup of tea. But this artist and song REALLY stood out to me on the first listen. She’s one of my favorites currently from the genre.

One of my favorite songs of the last couple of years. Feid is just coming off his highly successful world tour: Ferxxocalipsis World Tour. A nice song for the hump day commute.
