Teezo Touchdown “Impossible” - I found out about this artist from listening to an interview with Andre 3000. He was asked about new artists he likes where he sees some influence to his music. He mentioned Teezo. I can see it, it feels very Andre but unique all the same. Love the message of this video.

Wow!!! This is the best cover I have heard of “Hey Ya”. It’s sung like a lullaby and makes you really listen to the lyrics. What a beautiful voice Lusanda has. She is a ‘new to me’ artist and can’t wait to hear. more from. her.
Florence + The Machine - Dog Days Are Over (2010 Version) (Official Musi…
It’s good to see that people are discovering this song since the release of Guardians of the Galaxy. I’ve always loved it but never saw the video. It’s as wonderfully weird as the song.

Melanie Martinez - Wheels On the Bus [Official Music Video] I love when people take the songs from my youth and flips it on its head. All her videos are always so creative. For me she is the best artist to ever come from The Voice US.

Madison McFerrin - TRY | A COLORS SHOW
Do you remember the wildly popular song “Happy” by Pharrell Williams? Well, long before his song there was “Don’t Worry Be Happy” by Bobby McFerrin. There is no way Pharrell wasn’t influenced by that simple tune about being happy.
So happy to have stumbled on the grown up daughter of Bobby McFerrin, Madison McFerrin. The musical vibes and positivity don’t fall too far from the tree. Loving her soulful voice.

The Rance Allen Group “Something About the Name Jesus” feat. Kirk Franklin
I just found out today that Rance Allen passed away. This really made me sad and shed a tear. This rendition of this song always feeds my soul.
Its a long video with a lot of talking “preaching” from Kirk Franklin, but if you want to see the magic of Rance go to the last minute of the song. I love the entire performance, but consider checking out the undeniable unique vocal stylings of Rance starting around 11:08 to the end.
RIP Rance

Juice WRLD - Lucid Dreams - I just found out yesterday that he passed away at the end of 2019. RIP.
I’m a fan of the Sting song that was sampled in this song. I read a recent comment where someone rejected the notion that Juice Wrld had any samples in this song. To set the record straight. The original song “Shape of My Heart” was written and sung by Sting and released in 1993, 5 years before Juice WRLD was born. https://youtu.be/ZuI61cTNbAk
I think it was a great use of a sample done well and so does Sting. I found this short video with Sting commenting on how it is his favorite sample use of his song. I love it when an artist appreciates what someone does with their art. https://youtu.be/ITRYOg5vcSY

Ellie Goulding Featuring Juice WRLD - “Hate Me” (Official Video) - So I’m just hearing this song and seeing this video a year after it was released. I like the visual effects in this video. Something I haven’t seen before with the finger swipes.
I also just found out the featured artist Juice WRLD passed away. I’ll post a few of his videos as well in tribute. RIP Juice WRLD.

I really like this song from this “new to me” artist. She reminds me of a swagged our r&b/hip hop Billie Eilish.
