One of the main reasons I plan on updating my iTunes later today

is not the new music I hear on the radio from time to time.

(Still mostly playing music I added a month ago, at least =/)

But the music I catch myself listening to at odd moments.

Friend's house, swanky restaurant, someone's phone.

It wouldn't strike me as NICE*

If the songs weren't old.

Not Ashanti, JaRule old.

But OLD Monica, Sisqo, Brian McKnight, The Temptaions, Bob Marley*,

and too many more to name OLD-er.

Keep in mind its 2011

[HAPPY NEW YEAR]

and when i was growing out these songs were

playing in rotation and I was enjoying it, more OLDer Usher and Brandy.

Now I embrace the aged songs. PERIOD

I like it. I love it.

Even old songs with new artist newest verses,

Sampling, like Kanye and Jay are known for.

However, I listened to a James Brown album when I was in my zone.

And I was BLOWN*

How could I be missing all this gooda** music????
