Introducing Joss Stone is one of my favorite albums. I heard of her when I was around seventh or eighth grade and when I first heard her singing I was hooked. She just puts so much soul into her music, and these past few weeks while working on my assignments I kept listening to the songs on this album. One of the songs on the album I really love is “What Were We Thinking.” Another album I really love listening to all the time is Brown Sugar by D’Angelo. It’s an R n B album like Introducing Joss Stone, and I love listening to D’Angelo’s voice. He does a really beautiful rendition of “Cruisin'” by Smokey Robinson, and adds his own unique flavor to it. His voice is just so mature and, I don’t know, sexy. I am going to be honest, I got an eargasm* every time he hit those high notes on the song “Cruisin’.” I couldn’t stop listening to it this week. Another album I recommend is Frank by the late Amy Winehouse. “In My Bed” is one of my favorite songs on the album, and I just love her combination of jazz and soul. I really miss her but she left an incredible legacy of music I can continue to listen to in those moments when I’m just going through a lot and need some good music.
*all credit goes to Blackstreet and Dr. Dre for coining the wonderful word eargasm on their song “No Diggity.”
