I really like this track.

Just for the heck of it I typed “player” in to you tube and this was the first result that came back.

I prefer to use the word player as an adjective. For example, “that’s rather player”. Many people prefer to use it as a noun synonymous with the word “womanizer”. For example, “that fellow courts a lot of women. Perhaps he is a player”. The point is however you choose to use the word youtube got it right on this one.

I ran across this video on youtube and thought it was very interesting.  Here is the summary that accompanied the video.

The Game has come forward to say he got a call from the King Of Pop during the height of his beef with 50 Cent. Game says that Jackson contacted him to be the mediator in his beef with the G-Unit general.

Okay so admittedly I have “slept” on Billie Holiday.  I just spent the past few hours rabidly digging through youtube looking at vids of her.  Does anyone still make music like this?  Thanks for posting this one peagahairy.

This man is not super famous, but he should be. Super talented musician with the stage name “L” Debois. Here is a link to more of his videos. They are all good. The video below is his cover of “If this world were mine”. Feel it!

I really enjoy this song.  However the song is not the reason for the post.  Rather it is the extremely powerful footage contained in the video.  Enough said…

Thanks to brainchild9 for the post.

Suggie Otis’s album entitled Inspiration Information is horribly underrated.  Please pick it up from your local bodega. 

I choose the song Island Letter.  This song conveys the emptiness left when someone comes in to your life and leaves; along with the feelings associated with the thought of  their return.  Thanks zedek3147 for the post.

The last couple of songs I have posted have been…

well not like this one.  Anyone remember this jam?  Thanks to nuruposter for posting this video.

i would go back and watch this live. 

I found this video about six months ago.  I was amazed at how effortlessly a young Hector Lavoe threw down the vocals.  Willie Colon is also on the trombone!  This video is a piece of history.  Please be patient…the quality is a bit choppy at the beginning, but it gets better.  Thanks to jnyc101 for posting this.

Watch Gilberto and Bebel Gilberto perform Diga live.  This has always been one of my favorite youtube videos.  Down some vino while you take this one in.
