Dance Into Spring
Do you enjoy spring as much as I do? With flowers popping up and trees sprouting leaves. With the southern breezes blowing in and the sun in a blue sky as fluffy white clouds go rolling by. I hope you enjoy these songs.

These lyrics need a country twang and steady drumbeat, jumping to a fast paced guitar with multiple harmonies. Playfully flirty yet with a confident strength. She changed once to accommodate love and struggles with maintaining her own identity while still feeling pulled into his charms. She knows better and is determined to remind herself that she wants more than what he offers.

Back in the year 2001 the world of music was vibrant with a new found cadre of Neo-Soul artist. One morning while watching BET music videos a song called “Brotha” performed by Neo-Soul powerhouse Angie Stone came on and it really spoke to me as a young Black male.
