a couple of days ago i asked the neighborhood for some help. i was in desperate need of diana king's should-have-been-a-single find a way dance remix. well rupaul, (yes! i have to pinch myself again) emailed me the tune. so i am sharing it with all of you. this single was to be the third single from her 1997 sophomore album think like a girl. unfortunately, sony decided not to push the record. too bad because the song is an amazing dance track. take a listen for yourself. special thanks to ru!
some of you may not know that the rupaul, the legend herself is a regular reader of the blog. i know! i have to pinch myself whenever i think it about it ! lol anywho, i shared a story with about the video supermodel. and so because y'all are like my online familia, i am gonna share the story with y'all. here goes...one day in 1993, i was watching video vibrations on bet - which as some of my grown and sexy readers may know, was the only place to see cool dance music videos. anywho, while watching it - our house was raided by the police. my mother was an "accountant" for a neighborhood "pharmaceutical" company.. so the we're getting raided by "poe-poe" and the cops have me, my mother and my brothers face down on the floor and the only thing my mother and i could talk about while the cops are turning our beds upside down was the video that was playing. the video that was playing was supermodel. my mother said "mira! that blonde is tall as hell" and i said "yeah, and she is playing basketball in heals!". the cops then stopped and i lie to y'all not - started watching the video. while many may view and/or experience getting raided by cops traumatizing, it is one fo my fondest child hood memories. i remember feeling good that the world of music was catching up to our fabulocity!. so here's to memories, here's to feeling liberated and here's to the 90s!
aaahh how i so miss BET's video soul. that show provided the soundtrack for my awkward teen years. i remember watching the world premiere for this video and totally falling in love with both the song and vocalist. miss weathers, former lead singer for the r&b group atlantic star, released her debut (and only) solo album in 1990. this was the lead single and while a minor hit on the r&b chart, it failed to crossover. this tune takes me back -- way back into time. check it out.
one of my students, who is a trans male-to-female pulled me to the side and said "mr. louis, i just found out that my man was creepin' with a friend of mine and i feel like leavin' and goin' off. But you know what mr. louis, i ain't cuz i got work to do!" this song instantly began to play in my mind. here is to gettin' your work done!
this leaked a couple of weeks ago and i went back and fourth on if i should post it or not. but the song has finally grown on me. if you have not heard it, give it a shot.

this is my favorite song of the moment. if this does not give them the break they so deserve, then nothing will. oh yeah, this tune was written by the love of my life lil eddie.
