Hey everyone, Happy Monday! Hoping that you are doing well and had a great weekend. We are officially in the fall season, and I have been loving it because the weather has been giving all the cozy hoodie vibes. There’s something about the crisp air, colorful leaves, and shorter days that just makes everything feel more comforting. I’ve been enjoying warm drinks, carmel-flavored treats, and taking little walks to soak in the fall scenery. It’s the perfect time to slow down a bit, reflect, and enjoy the simple cozy moments. What’s everyone’s favorite part of fall so far?

This has been a long awaiting blog post — to know me is to know that I love music especially RNB music but also have a love for Hip Hop and other genres as well. While this has been a long awaited and highly requested topic for me to talk about I wanted to start of with albums that are classics to me and just albums from my upbrining that are from different artist that are very talented and to some are forgotten about in the music conversations these days that paved the way for new artist. These albums have been daily/weekly rotations for me throughout my life. I wanted to hand pick these albums speicifically because allof these albums bring back so many memories that I would never forgot like getting the actual CD and playing it on my CD player to having some of these songs from these albums or the full album on my iPod back in the day. My friends always want to know what albums or songs have shaped me to my music taste that I have now as an adult so here are some of the influencers. I feel like these albums will never get old and will forever be in my rotation no matter how old I get lol. Hope you enjoy these selections of albums and hope that some of them bring back memories to you if you know any of these and if not go check them out. All of these albums are on streaming platforms which is really dope so, I will be making a Apple Music + Spotify playlist of my favorite songs from these albums this week and post it on here for those that want to check out my favorites from these albums. Be on the lookout for my neo-soul favorite albums post, Hip Hop favorite albums post, and more. Hope you guys enjoy these classics!
