Kut Klose was a female R&B trio out of Atlanta formed by Keith Sweat. They are probably most known for singing with Sweat on the hit "Twisted" (that jawn went to #2 on the Billboard Top 100???).

B.T. Express (originally named Brooklyn Trucking Express) was a funk/disco group that had a number of hits in the 1970s.

On a scale of 1 - 10, Janet was easily a 20 in this video. . . . WOOOOO!

Did you know Kanye and John Legend co-wrote "I Want You"?

Another Kanye West production. These are my favorite types of Kanye West beats. The ones where you can't really tell that it's him on the track. The epitome of this is "You Don't Know My Name" by Alicia Keys. Ye is a monster on the R&B tracks.

Funk, Inc. was a jazz funk/soul jazz group founded in Indianapolis, Indiana in 1969. Besides them, I'm pretty sure you already know who Da Lench Mob are. . . when they comin back?

Getting all my music back will be a work in progress. . . but i'm officially committed.

Any Dilla fans out there? This jawn was also used by Alchemist in the song "Black Magic". . . but I feel like Madlib and Guilty Simpson murdered this Dilla version, so why not?!

Just Blaze has a very sick, twisted sense of humor, lol. He took the song from one of the most parodied videos off YouTube and turned it into a #1 hit single for Clifford. You, my friend, are officially a genius.

Oh, and just google "Numa Numa". You'll know the video as soon as you see the screen cap.

Mandrill is a funk band formed in Brooklyn, New York City in 1968. The band was formed by three brothers: Carlos Wilson (trombone, vocals), Lou Wilson (trumpet, vocals) and Ric Wilson (sax, vocals). The brothers were born in Panama and grew up in the Bedford-Stuyvesant area of Brooklyn.

Just go to 3:16, and just break out in the Shawty Lo dance. It's cool.

What can I say? I was wrong about the kid Charles Hamilton. He got a lot of spit to him (pause). I love this sample, because it's so powerful, yet simple. Like, he didn't try to overdo it, and such a classic song doesn't need much.

Please accept my apology. I have neglected you. No new updates in a month and a half?! What the hell???? Well, my LSATs are done, and I have nothing but time on my hands.

So this site is going through an overhaul. A while back, zshare was shut down for a while, so all of the links on the site (save for like 10) are dead.

That will all be fixed this weekend.

Papagiorgio is back.

Just listening to this Marvin puts me in a WHOLE 'nother world. . . . I was trying to think who would be my generation's closest equivalent to Marvin, and there really isn't one.

Marvin Gaye will forever be in a class of his own.

Candido Camero (born April 22, 1921) is Cuban percussionist (mainly conga and bongo) who backed many Afro-Cuban jazz and straightforward jazz acts since the 1950s. He moved to New York in 1952 and started recording with Dizzy Gillespie. During 1953-54 he was in the Billy Taylor quartet and in 1954 he performed and recorded with Stan Kenton. He also enjoyed some hits during the disco era, most notably with the Babatunde Olatunji penned track "Jingo" which he recorded for Salsoul Records, which was off the Dancin' and Prancin' Album

For the next couple of posts, I want to try something different. We all know about the crazy rare songs that your favorite producer found, and turned into your favorite song. But what about the remake? What happens when you find out your favorite song is not an original, but actually a remade track, and the original is 100X better???? It's happened to me. . . . numerous times.

The Smith Connection were three brothers from St. Louis who had a style which some compare to the Delfonics. This is their first and only release, which is a shame because based on "Wish I Had You", this trio definitely had the talent.
