Now that I’m done with school and probably taking Spring semester off it’s time to get back to what’s important – the music of course. The Internet has been buzzing with Maxwell releasing the first official single for his upcoming summer release ‘Black’Summers’night. Pretty Wings is available on iTunes and
Amazon and the video [via Honey Soul] premiered on BET this week. Tavis Smiley had the great honor to interview Prince this week and if you missed it part 1 and part 2 are available online. The Foreign Exchange dropped the video for Take Off Your Blues last week with Darien Brockington. And congrats are in order for Jill Scott and her fiance Lil John Roberts who are celebrating the birth of their baby boy Jeff Hamilton Roberts.

On to this week’s mix we have Erykah Badu’s Vibrate On which is from the Girlfriends soundtrack. The ever missing D’Angelo is present along with Jaguar Wright, Peter Hadar, Eric Benet, Sarah White and more. If you have checked out PPP’s new release Abundance please do – you’ll be glad you did.
