Song of the Day: Regulate
Today’s song is Regulate by Warren G. Time for something that holds a significant weight in terms of historical connotations. This one has a ton of mellow funk elements blended into mid-90’s gangsta rap, which was a popular… Read More

Song of the Day: Intergalactic
Today’s song is Intergalactic by Beastie Boys. Had to do it. They have too many great hits. They started as a hardcore punk band that morphed into an alternative Hip Hop/Rap Rock group. A distinct ‘flavor’ of the… Read More

Song of the Day: Hold On
Today’s song is Hold On by Wilson Phillips. I’m a sucker for the vibe this one has. It’s supportive (without being too cheesy). Sort of like a 90’s version of Annie’s Tomorrow. Yeah, it’s sappy. Sue me. I… Read More
