This is true soul music coming through.  The late Etta James & Christina Aguilera Something’s Got a Hold On Me.

Some of you may recall Christina sang this song in her first movie debut, Burlesque.

Thank Rocky!

We lost yet another incredible artist & musician over the weekend.  In honor of the great Amy Winehouse, I dedicate today’s song of the day to her.  You will be missed.  You opened the pathway for so many other artists in your genre (Jessie J, Adele, Lily Allen…).  Thank you for gifting us with one of the best albums of the past decade.  RIP Amy.

LFO former member loses battle to Lukemia @ 35

Yesterday was quite a sad day for the Boy Band music world.  Former member of boy trio LFO lost his 5 year battle to Leukemia.  The Summer Girls (aka the Abercrombie & Fitch song) singer will be truly missed by many of his colleagues, friends and family.  He started the Rich Cronin Hope Foundation to raise awareness about the disease and educate the public about donating blood and bone marrow.  He was only 35 years young.

In loving memory


Today marks the 9th year since R&B artist Aaliyah was laid to rest.  The Princess of R&B sold more than 32 million albums worldwide and is known for redefining the ideals of R&B and Hip Hop.  She is missed and remembered by her many fans and loving family.

Chunk’s Truffle Shuffle for this Hump Day

Chunk hasn’t shuffled all that much these past few weeks.  Maybe it’s because he’s been eating too much food.  Or perhaps, it’s because I’ve been too damn busy moving, painting, re-organizing my life.  No, actually, I think it’s mainly because Simplify Media shut off their damn services.  Sell outs!! And now everyone seems to be trying to release their amazing “streaming” software for iTunes.  Thank God I found my Mojo.  I can successfully have Chunk spin the draddle iTunes shuffler and choose a random song of the day.

In my collection of 23,000 + iTunes (yes, it’s officially hit 23,000 as of this past weekend and if I ever lose my external hard drive in a fire, I’m fu*ked!), Chunk’s jolly love handles landed on none other than Elvis Presley’s “All Shook Up.”  If anyone out there still think he’s alive, think again.  Today he’d be 75 and with all those drugs potato chips he got shook up with, he wouldn’t have made it to 40.  Oh shit, he lived to be 42… well, in any case, the “legend” is dead.  Will kids in 2200 still think he’s a legend?
