One of the most exciting and frustrating things about being an entrepreneur is not knowing what's around the corner. As I navigate my way in reporting about news, film, arts, and entertainment, connecting to the right folks is key. I would never have imagined that I would be on the phone with MC Lyte last Friday. It was an absolute honor. Thanks to Kerith (Quintessential … [Read more...] about Throwback Friday- MC Lyte “Cha Cha Cha”
Throwback Fridays (music)
Throwback Friday- Lisa Lisa and Cult Jam “I Wonder If I Take You Home”
This is sooooo Skateland in Columbia, Maryland for me. You know that 2-step to the right and then 2-step to the left with your hips swaying that we used to do?

I love Throwback Fridays because there's always a memory tied to these songs. This takes me back to a family trip with my cousins out to the Eastern Shore of Maryland (Ocean City, … [Read more...] about Throwback Friday- Phil Collins “Sussudio”
THROWBACK FRIDAY- The Jets “Crush On You”
These are my good ole days. When you could hear a song, feel good, and not have every detail explicitly described in the lyrics. There were to video hoes (vixens...whatever). It was that 80s pop, big hair, clothes from Units (remember that store?), shoulder pads, etc. The Jets were no exception. At the itme, we thought of them as the new Jackson 5, and yet another … [Read more...] about THROWBACK FRIDAY- The Jets “Crush On You”
