This week’s podcast went through a lot of changes since I couldn’t make up my mind as to what I was going to put together. At first I wasn’t going to do a podcast with only Michael Jackson’s work, I was thinking something with a mix of other artists. We’ve been saturated with tributes to the late great King of Pop and I felt what I could offer would pale in comparison. But as you can see we have a full mix of MJ’s work. It just happened like that. Something came over me while I was putting this together and the tracklist below is the result. When he left us I lost of piece of myself. I don’t remember not having Michael Jackson in my life and now suddenly he’s gone. Let’s make sure he’s not forgotten and continue to celebrate the gifts he gave us through his music. Enjoy.

  1. I Wanna Be Where You Are – The Jackson 5
  2. Never Can Say Goodbye (Beatnik and K-Saalam Remix) – Michael Jackson
  3. This Place Hotel (Heartbreak Hotel) – The Jacksons
  4. Don’t Stop Til You Get Enough – Michael Jackson
  5. You Can’t Win – Michael Jackson
  6. Human Nature – Michael Jackson
  7. Got To Be There – The Jackson 5
  8. Butterflies – Michael Jackson
  9. I Can’t Help It – Michael Jackson
  10. All I Do Is Think Of You – The Jackson 5
  11. I Want You Back – The Jackson 5
  12. The Way You Make Me Feel – Michael Jackson
  13. You Rock My World – Michael Jackson
  14. Blood On The Dance Floor – Michael Jackson
  15. Stranger In Moscow – Michael Jackson
  16. Gone Too Soon – Michael Jackson

To say I’m upset cause my favorite groups and artists aren’t coming with it is a huge understatement. So let’s highlight the good and just hope the others regain their senses and release music that innovates instead of regurgitating what’s already been done repeatedly by less talented acts.

With all that being said *takes a deep breath* let’s get on with the music. V’s latest release It is Finished! The Paradox: Vol 1 is out and available now. Check out his MySpace page for more info or head over to Soundclick to download it or buy it from CD Baby. Not only do we have V, we have India.Arie, Laura Izibor, Kelis, Stevie Wonder, D’Angelo and The Brand New Heavies to provide some listening pleasure especially if you’re as sick of the radio as I am. Enjoy!

  1. Rolling Through The Hood – Kelis
  2. Uptown – Raphael Saadiq
  3. Iceberg – Tweet
  4. Lover’s Ghetto – Angie Stone
  5. Keep Together – The Brand New Heavies
  6. Steady on the Grind – Erykah Badu ft Dead Prez
  7. Ghetto – India.Arie
  8. As – Stevie Wonder
  9. From My Heart To Yours (DJ Premier Remix) – Laura Izibor
  10. Smooth – D’Angelo
  11. My Cryin’ Blues – Davina
  12. Rules of the Game – V
  13. Stop Playin’ – Anthony David
  14. Breathe – Lalah Hathaway
