Showing posts with Throwback Thursday tag
Since R.Kelly announced the return of his self titled ‘Hip-Hopera‘ series ‘Trapped In The Closet‘, I started to listen to his music again. He’s composed some GOOD R&B tunes and he’s even done some club bangers- so i’ve chosen one of his songs for this week’s Throwback track! It’s got a feel good vibe, a two-steppable beat and I anyone would love to throw a party like the one in the video… can you guess?

This week’s throwback track has been in my head since the weekend, it’s an 80′s classic, one of the most popular from that era of music. It’s by British band: Soul II Soul who became quite successful off the back of their hit ‘Back to Life’. Their music was a mix of so many genres, dance, soul, hip-hop everything! You could just say New Jack Swing and save your breathe to be fair. Anyway, today it’s ‘Keep on Movin‘ that I have chosen to throwback; A chilled and uplifting yet ‘two-step-able‘ track featuring soulful vocals from Caron Wheeler. Enjoy

Sorry those who were expecting a Throwback Thursday yesterday, it slipped under the radar this week. Fear not thought for I have thought of a song that should be worth the extra day’s wait. For the past few weeks I have been blasting this tune from Ginuwine as if it has only just been released. There’s nothing better than kicking back and jamming to old songs you have stored in your library, hopefully this week’s Flashback Friday will inspire you to do just that. Start your throwback session with Ginuwine and his sultry song ‘Im In Love’ taken from his 2006 album Back II Basics.
This week’s throwback is by Lenny Kavitz, taken from his ’5‘ album, the track is about 14 years old and gets major plays in my iTunes- I think this was one of his most successful songs. It’s a very simple song, but it’s the intrumental that chorus that made such a success- I can only admire envy his skills with instruments! If Kravitz does write another album, it ould be good to hear more Rock influenced material like this. Anyway, watch the video for ‘Fly Away‘ after the break, enjoy!

Glad to be back on this post! This throwback isn’t a proper ‘throwback‘ for me as I only actually came across this 70′s track in the last decade. Heck, I doubt my family were even listening to much English music back then! I ended up purchasing the song off iTunes a few years back as soon as I watched the film; the infectious hook and THAT guitar solo – damn. You know what song I’m talking about, hop on after the cut to listen. Baby come back…

RECLAIMED is what I should rename this post today. These impostors think that they can intrude and take over my Throwback Thursday post on a regular LOL, I kid I kid. Since I’m making a lil comeback to this post I thought I would only be best to celebrate my return with an appropriately titled throwback track. So without future ado I reintroduce you to Ma$e and his 2004 track ‘Welcome Back’.
Don’t you just love it when you put your iTunes on shuffle and it picks out a great song you had almost forgotten about? The track that my speakers started blasting had me and my brothers reminiscing. With soothing vocals from Faith Evans, and motivational lyrics from A Tribe Called Quest, ‘Stressed Out’ is a certified classic. Have a listen after the jump.
