By just now, I really mean artists that none of my friends know about, and I need to talk about them. As promised, though, ya get some of everything.

1) Al Green
I may have mentioned it before, but I love this man. I love his story, his druggie past, his conversion to being a minister. I love it all.
For those who don't know, he was a well known R'n B singer back in the 70's. But Al Green's Greatest hits takes the cake for what I love most. I can listen to the whole album without skipping a…

First of all I can't tell you how happy I am that the group finally has more than two members. My empire has begun, so to speak.
I know I was supposedto be focusing on Japan, but I couldn't resist… sort of.
Anyway, you, with your fabulously varied musical taste probably find that some types of music seem t interest you for a certain time, and then the next week you find yourself listening to a completely different style! Even though I'll always be willing to get into what Im listening to at the moment, sometimes there's a song that…

Even though bein lazy is bad, it's just something I happen to be very good at!
Enough excuses though. As long as their are ways to listen to music that none of your friends have EVER heard of, then I will be here to talk about it.

First things first: Japan

I'm thinking about doing the usual ten tracks, but it'd also be interesting to talk about the popular artists in Japan and western influences. After all, let's not forget we invented Rock n' Roll, and while they may be the most technologically advanced countries in the world, we have…

Welcome to the group ecnaNnair (sorry if i get it wrong)!

I thought about doing my usual 10 tracks of all different genres. (Love Is You, by Chrisette Michele comes to mind) I decided to change up.
This week we'll be looking at… JAPAN! That's right. You heard me. Japan. But before I get this list, I'll have to do a little more, ummm, research. Yeah

Hurray, I finally had a second member! Does it even matter that he/she left 3 hours ago? Not a Bit. Details.
Anyway Iv'e got 10 new extra special songs for you(and by you, I really mean ME and anyone who will listen) and they come from a wide range of genre's.

1) A Tribe Called Quest — Can I Kick It?
Why You'll Love It: Some of 'you' will recognize the sample (I think it's Nirvana… a fan may be cringing somewhere) in the background. It's really mellow and fit's the lyrics perfectly. For those who don't know, The Tribe…

As promised, Alboe gives diversity. Did you honestly think five listed tracks every once in a while was enough?

1) Malaguena —- George Lecuona
Why you'll love it: You can play bits of this on your guitar and piano at home snd make your own songs. It's got that timeless masterpiece quality. Expect a classical/latin feeling and a big, regal sound— like Rhapsody in Blue
Why I love it: I first heard it while watching an ice skater do a Triple Six winning routine (that's the figure skating version of a perfect 10). Then I continued to youtube the crap…

My little project. I'll update every so often. This is my way of spotlighting artists and songs that deserve more credit. If I can get one person to listen to this artist or these songs, I'll be happy. To start I have to spotlight

Sage Francis
I don't care what you think about hip hop, or what your stereotypes are. His genius is undeniable.
Sage Francis is an independent underground hip hop artist who also co-owns a record label called Strangely Famous (it shares his initials).
His lyric style is no joke. He's unapologetically intelligent in all his work, and…

Hey, It's A Little Bit Of Everything (ALBOE?) It's been great so far, in this one-member status. Like 5th grade all over again. Maybe it's a bit hypocritical that I call this group a Little Bit of Everything but exclude people who listen to just one thin— but you knew that.
The purpose of this group is to gain 3,000 members, even if I have to send out hundreds of meaningless friend requests everyday! (Myspace, anyone?)
Just kidding! I really started this because I have no idea what my favorite type of music is. I just can't listen to one!…

Why can't I stick to one genre?
Today I'm back into blues. I try to tell myself that it helps me get my schoolwork and hair braiding done faster, but it really doesn't. Occasionally I'll stop to write down a song I hear from the radio. It's from Sirius XM radio and it's call B.B King's Bluesville. It's great, because I discovered blues was basically my version of Emo music, with less whining (sorry Sarah).
Yesterday, I started listening to some rocksteady on this website, and then the Sirius XM reggae station. Reggae is interesting to me because they have…
