Back to make your Monday’s suck less! Just kidding, I happen to love the start of the week. If you haven’t noticed, the #NMM playlist will be posted bi-weekly, so I can play catch up with my life. That means you have 30 of the hottest releases from the past couple of weeks, give or take a few lost gems, to groove to. There’s a couple of new drops from Reezy with “Draped” and Demrick with “Let it Burn” ft Dizzy Wright & Euroz from the latest “Still Movin Monday”series. You can catch a dope West to East Coast collab with Berner and Styles P on “Vibes”. Not to forget new releases from Tyler, the Creator, Vince Staples, Amine, Calvin Harris, and so much more! You know what to do…hit shuffle, press play and vibe out.
Rounding up the hottest new tracks from the last couple of weeks.
So much great music has been released & you can find a lot of it here.
From Kehlani's new bangin album 'SweetSexySavage' to local rapper J.Hurt with "Lost My Soul in Pasadena"; you can count on hearing a couple of songs from "trap-masters" Migos, as well as a few tracks from Compton's very own, Problem. Lets not forget new music by The Strokes called "Drag Queen" and my personal favorite song for the moment, "Electric" by Alina Baraz ft. #Khalid.
Seriously, there's over two hours of great music. Hit the link, press shuffle & vibe your way into a new month.
You know what time it is. Here's to breaking in a new week, let alone a new month. This week, i'm making up for not bringing you a a playlist last Monday. Hopefully you're still grooving to the "West Coast Wednesday" playlist. If you haven't heard it yet, check it out.. Not only does it consist of all forms of the platform, there's over an hour & a half of great music. That's 36 opportunities to find your new "jam of the week", let alone the month.
You know what to do, hit shuffle, zone out & enjoy!
New week. New vibes. New season.
I don't know about you, but Monday's get me pretty excited. Not only do we have a new opportunity to make all that we didn't like better this week, we're going to be ushering in a new season. If anyone out there loves Fall/Autumn as much as I do, than you can understand my excitement. I mean seriously, great weather, Halloween, leaves changing, fall fashion, and so much more... how can you go wrong?
Quite frankly, I'm ready for the mellow vibes and new tunes. This week is all about ushering in and saying good-bye. If you're indulging in your new 'Summer Love' or letting go of that "old thang", there's a vibe for everyone. Of course if you're anything like me, you're probably just down to tune in and zone out. Whatever your pleasure is, I invite you to hit shuffle, turn it up a notch and let yourself go.
Back at it with a booming playlist to help get you through the week! Once again, bringing you some of the latest and hottest tracks from a few of your favorite artists. Not to mention, all of the newbies that made their way into the mix. This weeks mashup includes "War Ready" from Vince Staples and his new album "Prima Donna", a sick EDM/Trap mix-up of Rihanna's "You Needed Me" by ELJAY, as well as my summer anthem "OOOUUU" by Young M.A.
Whatever your pleasure is, there's a high chance you'll find at least one new favorite out of the mix. If infact you don't come across something that excites you, let me know! Feel free to send me suggestions of artists and music from any genre of music. The purpose of doing "NMM" is to be able to continuously provide a platform for those coming up and or new music coming out. I don't only aim to give you ear candy, I aim to open up your mind to sounds you may otherwise dismiss. My playlist helps you step outside the box, even if only for a second.
Hit shuffle, press play, VIBE OUT!
Back at it with your "New Music Monday" fix! After giving you over two hours of heavy hitting, bass thumping, summer vibes with the Hello August playlist, I wanted to mellow you out with something you can groove to. This weeks playlist is mostly curated of songs suggested by "word of mouth".
The older I get, the more I realize that I'm no good with small talk and conversation fillers. There is one universal subject that I use to help break any type of ice, and that gem is MUSIC. I may fumble over my words asking "What do you like to do for fun?", or even draw a blank when you tell me you go to college & I forget to ask "What are you studying?" With music, I pull up the "notes" in my phone, hand it you, and ask for you to "put me on".
I won't go so far as to say that music makes the person, but I can say it's a great way to get a glimpse into the different worlds we let ourselves get lost in. As for me, the excitement of discovering new artists and melodic mix-ups, far surpasses the discomfort of breaking the ice. So, if you're ever at a lost for a conversation piece, start asking about music & be open to what you receive.
Thank you to everyone who contributed their amazing suggestions!
Until next time.

Ready to kick off a new week with a new month just around the corner? It's been two weeks since i've brought you a "New Music Monday" playlist, so you know I had to follow up with some hits. Every day that I come up on a new sound or new artist, my love for music gets stronger & deeper. I hate to hear when people say "good music is dead". Yes, i'm a huge fan of the older music, but there are original sounds emerging everyday. Whether you're looking to 'turn up', wind down, zone-out, or take it back, my goal is to bring you a taste of all that you need & more every Monday! Some of it you'll like, & some you won't, but there's something for everyone... so enjoy!
*P.S.: Chance The Rapper: Coloring Book (let that sink in)
Wow, is it really May already? Time definitely seems to be flying for me. I remember when I had way too much time on my hands, & now I can't seem to find enough to get everything done. No qualms over here. I figure, if Beyonce can do it... no excuses. Haha.
This week, I got lucky with some last minute releases from a few upcoming artist. A couple of those gems actually dropped just a few hours ago; MAMA ft Dani Leigh, Kreesha Turner & Brooke Valentine & Noel Scales with "Time to Fly". I've added a spice of Bay Area native MicahTron, with her version of "Summer 16", along with a few new names, I can't forget the sexy new single from one of my favorites, Verse Simmonds with "Let Me Know".
Plug in, Press Play, & get to groovin!
Click play & enjoy!
Ready for some New Music!!
This week's playlists features upcoming West Coast artists Candice Pillay with her own version of Yo Gotti's "Down In The DM", as well as E.Cov, with his latest track "Hall Of Fame". Not to mention a taste from the south with Two-9, or heat from the East Coast to keep you warm, while you "Make It There" with Shake070.
Along with the mentioned songs, i've thrown in a few bangers from artist you probably already know.
Let me know what's your favorite song on the playlist!
Until next time,

If you didn't get a chance to check out Pt. 1 of my Spring Break & want to see Miami through my eyes, Welcome to Miami!!
Alright, alright, I know what you're thinking... "How are you just gonna hit me with "New Music Monday" on a Tuesday?" Simple... just like that.
I figured, i'm better late than never right? Hopefully, I can make up for it by giving you not only a playlist of hot singles, but a full album from a man with an awesome sound.
This week brings you a slew of variety. Whether you're tryna "Whip It" with Bia aka Perico Princess, visit Cloud 9 with Euroz & his smooth single "Cannabis", or get inside the vibes with 9192, as they bring you their new single "Autumn", your music palate should be satiated.
Grab your earphones & get to vibing, because it's going up on a Tuesday!
