July @ The Lion's Den

Alongside Bob Marley, The Doors, Zeplin, and Pink Floyd - Sade was one of the most frequently played artists of my childhood.

Growing up, my morning soundtrack was always Sade. My mom speaks 4 languages, and the one shes most fluent in is MUSIC.

Im grateful everyday that I was raised with these lovely sounds - SADE FOR LIFE

If you haven't been able to tell - Sean Leon is one of my absolute favorite creative/musical artists . This track continues to prove the expansive range that this dude has the ability to create in.

WHATISHAPPENING?

I know that "Honestly, Nevermind" was probably one of Drake's least popular albums - I felt the opposite. I actually enjoyed more than anything in the last few years from him.

Gordo was the standout producer from that album and I am HYPED that this track is now out. I used to listen to it on Youtube once in a while...

This is a SECRET track - meaning you and I are not supposed to have found/accessed this.

Please don't show this to the wrong person...

WWFOD? I have zero desire to have "new" Frank Ocean music.

Does anyone still listen to ENDLESS? I have been running through that elusive album and Blonde a lot this month. It's crazy how many layers exist on each track.

Who else sleeps in their dreams? This entire album is so good, lyric are slightly controversial and not typically something that I would align with however - its very much a great album.

Well Blessed - No Stress. Ellect of God. If you are unfamiliar with the godfather of reggae, I have failed you.

Lee Scratch Perry is the cornerstone of reggae. RIP

Sometimes you gotta listen to ratchet rap propped up on some soulful boomyard sounds.

The idea of "world" music is becoming a global takeover. This is an awesome example - this track has a harmonious blend of multiple genres.

Unlike anything being created today - this classic album has so many stand-out tracks. This is one of my favorite "lowkey" sounds from Mr. Soulchild.

#BringBackClassicLoveSongs

I have racked up 42 plays on this track already. The sounds coming out from over the pond has been really enjoyable - and if there is one thing you should consider...SLOW MUSIC IS BETTER

The Zion I Kings are one of the premier engineers in keeping the classic Reggae Dub sounds alive. This is an incredible "mixtape" showcasing a ton of raw talent backed by the fruitful sounds of the masterful group.
