Michael Joseph had to let the doe•eyed beatle know
(Right before he jacked his catalog 😈 😂)

Live recordings are an art. Sometimes, artists change a song for live performance but lose something that you loved in the original. But sometimes the elevate it and improve on it.
For Day 6 of the #BlackMusicMonthChallenge , share a favorite live version of a song.
Instantly thought of the Black 'British Invasion' of the '80s
Love the hades outta Jane Eugene/Loose Ends, Soul II Soul, 5 Star,etc.
But I think 52nd Street got lost in the sauce a lil bit

This forgotten gem covers several #BlackMusicMonthChallenge (s) in one: cookout/summer anthem, you'd have to have some years on u to appreciate the good ol' days, which triggers all the feels of times gone by with family no longer here
I sang this Queen’s music at the top of my lungs as a youngin. I even had to perform as her for a Black History program in elementary school lol. Had no idea what was really good, but after living a lil bit I grew to appreciate & love her even more 🫶🏾

First of all… I am firm in believing the downfall of Black romance is because we losing recipes and not hearing monologues like this no more. Lionel put it all on the line and I fear I would fold if my Bae played this joint for me lmaooo

Cracked up laughing when I saw Kem’s book in the library today. #BlackMusicMonthChallenge comes for Kem and Mark Morrison every year. 😂
I went to South Africa around 2008/9. While I was there, I went on a tour w/ one of the best local guides ever. It was amazing ✨
We are driving, he plays this South African artist, and my mind was blown. I have been in love w/ his music ever since.
#BlackMusicMonthChallenge
It's the LAST DAY, kids!!
This final question, to me, is the music equivalent of peeking in someone's medicine cabinet or drawers. It can be very revealing 👀
For Day 30 of the #BlackMusicMonthChallenge , tell us which song is the most played in your music library.
Day 30: Most Played song in your library
Good Morning Sunshine - Little Brother
#BlackMusicMonthChallenge
“Sir Duke”-Stevie Wonder
I play this song daily… it makes me happy & it’s about what I love… music.. #BlackMusicMonthChallenge
Lost two really close friends during the pandemic. Music helps me cope. So those tracks are part of a playlist dedicated to them. #BlackMusicMonthChallenge
Obviously Lenny Williams right? But let me try not to be cliche…
You Don’t Know My Name x Alicia Keys
Live For Love Alone x Betty Wright
Float On x The Floaters (shout out to Larry reppin for the Cancers ♋️)
Heard It All Before x Sunshine Anderson #BlackMusicMonthChallenge
Music stimulates the part of our brain connected to emotions memory. That's why a song can put you right back in time and place, and why we identify some songs so strongly with specific people.
For Day 29 of the #BlackMusicMonthChallenge , share a song that reminds you of family.
