Black History Month

For Black History Month, we celebrate the incredible contributions of Black artists who have shaped music history and brought joy to generations:

“Let’s Twist Again” (Chubby Checker): Released in 1961, this song not only cemented the Twist dance craze but also marked a turning point in popular culture. Chubby Checker broke barriers, becoming a household name and inspiring people of all backgrounds to hit the dance floor with his infectious energy.
“I Know You, I Live You” (Chaka Khan): Chaka Khan, the Queen of Funk, whose timeless song “I Know You, I Live You” showcases her unmatched vocal prowess and soulful artistry. Released in 1981, this track from her What Cha’ Gonna Do for Me album remains a masterpiece, blending funk, R&B, and jazz into a groove that continues to move hearts and dance floors alike.
“Shoop” (Salt N Pepa): Salt-N-Pepa, the iconic hip-hop trio behind the timeless hit “Shoop,” released this empowering anthem amplified women’s voices in hip-hop, delivering bold lyrics and an unforgettable groove.
“Water” (Tyla): Tyla, whose fun and infectious track “Water” was the song of the summer! With its catchy beat and vibrant energy, Tyla brought a refreshing vibe to the season, captivating listeners with her unique sound and undeniable talent.

Throwback Thursday: Spirit Hits Throughout the Years

Let’s take a moment to reminisce about some classic hits that defined our musical landscape:

“Family Affair” (Mary J. Blige): Let’s take it back to 2001 with the queen, Mary J. Blige, and her iconic anthem Family Affair! This track had us all dancing and leaving our drama at the door.
“I’m Too Sexy” (Right Said Fred): Let’s rewind to 1991 with Right Said Fred’s ultimate self-love anthem, I’m Too Sexy! This track had everyone channeling their inner supermodel and owning the spotlight.
