Anewlis tagged me and even though its taken a minute (finals kicked my tail) here's my Summer Seven.

Here are the rules: “List seven songs you are into right now. No matter what the genre, whether they have words, or even if they’re not any good, but they must be songs you’re really enjoying now, shaping your spring summer. Post these instructions in your blog along with your seven songs. Then tag seven other people to see what they’re listening to.”  I'm skipping the tagging other people part.

The Summer Seven Mix

N.E.R.D - Anti Matter - This song is soooo funny and I love the beat. I was going to use You Know What but I was listening to Anti Matter in the car and quickly changed my mind.

Maiysha - Orbit - I love the funkiness of this song... cosmic. MySpace

Ananda Project - Into the Sunrise (Ricanstruction Mix) - This one gets me grooving - MySpace

Alice Smith - Gary Song - Sassy... like me. I not only love this song I love her entire cd. For Lovers, Dreamers & Me is a must have cd. Alice Smith's site

Trizonna McClendon - Sunshine and Lemonade (Make Me Feel Mix) - Summer is all about being in sun. I have been listening to this house remix of Sunshine and Lemonade for a minute now. One of my top summertime songs. Trizonna McClendon's site

Estelle - In The Rain - Estelle's cd is a nice mix of different flavors. And In The Rain is one of my favs.

The Roots ft Peedi Peedi and Dice Raw - Get Busy - This is my riding song! Nuff said...

Energy... getting moving... getting into the flow. I felt a different vibe was needed this time around, switch things up a bit. There's a little bit of everything going on in this mix - hip hop, r&b, old and new.

Be on the lookout for more to come - new mixes, a new site and more... And since I'm in a nostalgic Outkast mood all of a sudden I might drop a mix of Southernplayalistic grooves... we'll see.

After a rough week I decided I needed a little pick me up, so I came up with a mix that would get me moving and remind me that it's not all as bad as it may seem. We all get a little stressed out at times but if you wipe the dirt off your shoulder you'll be just fine. I know I'm the real thing and no one can walk in my shoes or hate on me. It's time to work that with no more tears. This woman is a champion and the voice within is only getting stronger. Today is golden and I'm enjoying the complex simplicity of this thing called life, living on cloud 9. Be blessed and enjoy.

Have a good Monday and a good week.
