This track comes clean off of, what I believe is the single greatest Christmas mash-up playlist ever created, Isaac's RAF Christmas (download link below son!) Anyways, to the actual song. Brought to you by DJ Whoquestion we have Super Sleigh Ride. There's something about the mix of a classic Christmas song and The Beastie Boys that just warms the heart better than spiked eggnog. I recommend to sit back, relax and enjoy. It's December the 23rd. Also make sure you comment, and rate, and all that good stuff. Oh, and share it too. Definitely do that.
We had Christmas in Harlem 2 days ago. Now we're going to go back in time and have Christmas in Hollis.
Usually Thursday's are Throwback Thursday's, but it's Christmas week. SO I MIXED THEM TOGETHER!! Run DMC taking us back on this one. I hope everyone's having a swelly Christmas, and enjoying their time off. Sit back, relax and enjoy the holidays. It's December the 22nd.
These gentlemen are known as Timeflies Tuesday. Basically every Tuesday they release a new song that usually includes a freestyle completely made up on the spot (as can be seen here at the 1:54). The beat is served crispy every week as well. These guys have mad skill and I definitely encourage you to check out their other songs. Sit back, grab some nog and relax. It's December the 21st.
Today we're going with a little Kanye West and others with Christmas in Harlem. Not much else to say. I hope all of you are having a festive season and a good time. I'm a day away from finishing up my finals (finally) and focusing on friends and fam. Have a happy Tuesday people, and I'll see you tomorrow. Sit back, relax and enjoy. It's December 20th.
It's Christmas week, so not only are we coming back, but we're going to be doing something special for you just for this week. Just a week of songs that will get you in the mood for the holidays. Some you know, some you don't. Let's get into it.
It's the first day of this festive week, so we're going to hit you with a classic. I give you Donny Hathaway, with This Christmas. If you aren't feeling good after listeing to this check your pulse. No legit, check your pulse something might be il with you (see what I did there? anyone?). Jokes asides I hope all of you have a great week. For all your holiday music needs, I'm here. So sit back, grab some eggnog and push play. It's December the 19th!
WARNING: this video contains graphic content. but the songs good. so I'd still watch it.....yeah.
This is Monster, by Kanye West. It's Halloween so I had to bring up something like this. I personally like the disclaimer at the beginning of the video but that's a story for another day. That's pretty much all I have to say. I thought a nice strange video/song like this would go along well with Halloween. Not to mention that this song makes you go hard....for real. So sit back, relax and turn into a monster. Oh, and Happy Halloween too eh! It's Motivational Monday!

Halloween may be two days away, but it's Halloween party weekend. So today, we got Halloween music on lock.
Featured in a Geico commercial, this Mysto and Pizzi remix features a nice remix of Rockwell's classic Somebody's Watching Me. This version is not sung by Rockwell, but I'll include the link to his version as well just because the background is sung by childhood friend Micheal Jackson. AND the video is the bomb! I suggest looking up Rockwell, he has family ties to LMFAO and a bunch of other famous Motown artists.
That's really all I got to say for today. I wish you all a happy halloween. Be safe and all that. Before you go out though, sit back, relax and enjoy. It's Fresh Saturday!
Remember to like us and follow me. Links for facebook and twitter are in the contact section. So get on that ish! Also, keep spreading the word. Tweet this, post it all that good stuff. I'll be back Monday with some motivation. Until then...
Ladies and gentlemen, first and foremost, I know it's been a long time. But hopefully this song can make up for that. I know I personally have been knee deep in midterm season and it still feels as though it will never end. But leave it to the pride of Wichita Kansas, XV, to offer a bit of a "light in the tunnel" if you will. Just a tight feel good beat with a synth solo. What's not to love? For those of you having a rough week this one's for you. Hard times come and go, but good memories and music last forever. Sit back, relax and enjoy. It's feel good Friday!
It's been a while so I remind y'all to like me on Facebook and follow me on Twitter. Also, and this is a big favor I'm asking of you. Normally I wouldn't ask just a normal person to do this, but you guys are different and I trust you. I need you to spread the word about this. The more people that know, the better. Big things are coming so stay tuned. And when I say big, I mean BIG. Speaking of big things shout to Ten Tree. There about to blow up so show them some love. I'll be back tomorrow with the fresh pick. Until then...
Ludacris, Get Back. Thats really all I have to say on the matter. Expect all of this weeks posts to be nice and short (I have to study ok). Hope you enjoy the song. I also hope you enjoy Luda's obnoxiously large arms (wonder how they got that way, feel me?). I'll be back tomorrow with some local talent. Until then...
Fresh Saturday my people. We got a fresh track, a little older but still classy Anyone But Him. I don't have much to say on the subject. I was just really feeling this song all week so that's why it's here. Weekly shoutouts to Suchan and D Haid. Those boys give me some good feedback so I always enjoy having a nice chat with them. Super big shout to my man Dave aka Creelmankid. He's the man responsible for all this and without a few encouraging emails this may have ended. He's a great chap and just a joy to have the opportunity to talk to/learn from. So ya, sit back relax and enjoy the song. It's Fresh Song Of The Week Saturday!

Since it's Friday you guys know that it's time to fell good. The end of the week signals 2 days of carefree living. If you'd had a bad week, it's all good cause it's a new day, soon a new week and before you know it you'll be back on your feet. It may seem as though all hope is lost and things are falling apart (Chinua Achebe anyone?) but as one of my friends has shown me sometimes the destruction of one thing lays down the foundation for something bigger and better (one can only hope). Today we have a little D Why with Wind Blows. I'm not gonna lie, I LOVE D Why. Everything he writes is pure gold and this is no exception. Prepare yourself to be lost in carefree rythym and rhymes. D Why delivers every single time you press play and never fails to impress. This one goes out to my boys Drew H, Mitch B, and Songah C always there to tell a good tale. So, regardless of what type of week you had I invite you to sit back, relax and enjoy. It's Feel Good Friday! If you want to make someones bad week a good week I suggest you like us on Facebook, and follow me on Twitter. If you want to make it extra good I invite you to post or tweet this link out and tell the world about this little blog. Climb a Siberian mountain Rocky style and scream it from the top of your lungs.... Or you can just tell people like a normal human being. No matter what you do I'll be back tomorrow with the fresh pick. Until then...
Ladies and gentlemen Run D.M.C! You just gotta love it. Old school flavor so delicious you wish you could cook with it. Prepare yourself to be punched in the face with a beauty of a throwback beat and rhymes you just can't beat. It may be tricky, but they make it look easy.
Remember to like us on Facebook and follow me on Twitter. Please keep spreading the word. Post on your Facebook, tweet it, put it on Tumblr, make flyers post them around town. I don't care. Just help me out and promote. Love you all. I'll be back tomorrow with a feel good song. Until then...
Music video? Short film? Art piece? I'd say all three. I'd also say masterpiece.
I'm gonna let the video do the talking for me. It's absolutely fantastic. DON'T READ ON UNLESS YOU'VE FINISHED THE VIDEO. As some of you may know Kid Cudi is rumoured to have anger issues (hence Mr. Rager), from what I've read this is the basic synopsis: The Cudi in the black jacket is the good one, he's the one we're cheering for. The Cudi in the brown jacket is the bad one. The brown jacket is trying to corrupt/consume the black jacket. The other scary looking doods fighting is Cudi's conscience or his guardians if you will. Black jacket Cudi realizes that the only way to defeat his anger (brown jacket/Mr. Rager) is to kill it himself. He gets snapped back into reality with his counselor calling his name. She can be seen as one of the guardians as well because she is helping him defeat his problem. Other things to note: "oh hey it's Kanye West" at 4:23. Shout to Drew H for showing me this video. He's a good kiddo.

This one's gonna be short and sweet. Local good music. Nuff said.
Today's local talent comes courtesy of The Local Onlyz with Next To You. They deliver a feel good love song that's sure to bring a nice summer time feel into your life. It also shows the beauty of Regina. Hope you guys enjoy. Twitter, and Facebook links are in the contact section above. If you're a local artist who wants to be featured here shoot me an email/tweet/facebook message and give me a good song to feature. I assure you it'll make its way on here. Keep on spreading the word. Tell everybody you know, and I mean EVERYBODY. Hell, tell people you don't know. But ya, keep telling people and I'll love ya forever and ever. Comment and rate below and all that good stuff. I'll be back tomorrow with a music video. Until then...
I'm back baby!! After a long leave of absence your friendly neighborhood is back. The last couple of months have been refreshing for me. A lot of new things attempted and a lot of things that happened. Some good, some bad. But that's a story for a different day, besides you're here for the music. And to be perfectly honest with you I've missed you (yes you!) However, fear no more, I'm here. Today's selection comes courtesy of Asher "I Love College" Roth and Akon. This song goes hard. Ill beat, ill rhymes. I like it. As for motivation try this on for size; no matter how hard life knocks you down, life only rewards those who get back up. The ones who stay down live there life in fear and risk free. Those who get back up are the ones who succeed. So I encourage you to get back up and work even harder than you were before. Reap your reward. Once you've realized that you can face life you'll realize you can do anything and experience true strenght. So stand up, and be the last man standing.
As always comment and rate below. Like me on Facebook, follow on Twitter. Links for that are in the contact bar. Tell your friends about this and spread the word. I'll be back tomorrow with some local talent. Until then...
This one's going to be short and sweet. All you need to know is that this is a kick ass song.
Chiddy Bang, Mind Your Manners. Doesn't get much better than this. Be ready to kick back and relax and experience the feel good vibes. Ladies and gentlemen, it's Friday, finally. At this point in time we should all just throw our feet up, grab some friends, grab some drinks and chill for the night. While we listen to this song! For those of you who had a shitty week, this is for you. But don't worry, new week's right around the corner and I'm sure it'll get better. I wish you god speed in all your endeavors and efforts. The best advice I can give you is to relax for a night. You owe it to yourself. So sit back, relax and press play. It's feel good Friday! Heyo, remember to like us on Facebook, follow on Twitter and rate/comment below. To the people who read this keep your head up. Heed the words of Chiddy, there is no one like you. Remember that. I'll be back tomorrow with the Fresh Pick. Until then...
Ya I got nothing left. enjoy the throwback vibes. This one's for my boys. And all those who really enjoy bad boys. That movies the shit. The label is good too. haha. Sit back relax and enjoy. I'll be back tomorrow with a fresh pick. Until then...
This one comes courtesy of my boy Aryan. The boys straight killing it in Manitoba and we all miss him dearly over here in the Sk. All these recent posts are going to be short, so ya. Enjoy the song and do the stuff ya always do. rate/comment, like all that good stuff. That does it for local talent tuesday. Stay tuned, in like 2 minutes you can see music video wednesday. Until then..
Tonight we got a little My TimeGameday Remix. This one is sure to get you nice and pumped up for any type of event that requires said energy. I don't have much more to say about this one. I guess I'll end with some words of wisdom. You shouldn't be having good and bad days. You should just be having good and even better days. So keep your chin up when life keeps kicking you down, you'll see the light at the end of the tunnel soon enough. Well....that does it for Raul G Deep for now, haha. But seriously keep grinding, it's your time. It's also Motivation Monday!

First of all, sorry for the late posts in the latter part of this week. I've been swamped at work, but I'm going to try to fix that up. 2nd, and this is a major change. I will no longer have the top billboard songs on Saturday's, instead it'll just be the Fresh Pick, it seems like more people like that. If you read this, you probably want to see my picks, not the top rated songs, so that's what you're getting! So, this week's fresh song comes from my boy Childish Gambino, with his song Break. I heard this a few days back and just about exploded in realizing how legendary this song is. He covers Kanye West's All of the Lights. And in my opinion, he does a damn good job of it. So sit back, relax and enjoy. It's the Fresh Song of the Week!
Remember to like us on Facebook, follow us on Twitter and rate/comment below. I love it when you guys rate/comment cause it lets me know how many people are checking this out and how much they're liking it. So keep doing that. Also keep spreading the word, whether it be by work of mouth or on Facebook or Twitter. Every little bit helps and it is all highly appreciated. Weekly shoutouts go to my boys Suchs, Mitch "pretty much a manager" Bres and CreelmanKid aka DCar. I'll be back Monday with a motivational song. Until then...
As I explained in the last post, I've been swamped at work, so that's why this is late. However, this does tie in with my work life. Whenever I complete a sale, this is the song that plays inside my mind. So if you can picture me, dancing to no music, I'm thinking about this song. Ya, the customers think I'm crazy, but whatever. Haha, but regardless, here's a little Mac Miller, Best Day Ever. I hope you guys all had a great week, if not, there's a new one right around the corner, keep your chin up and keep your heart to God and you'll be golden. I promise. I got an awesome song for tomorrow's fresh pick, so stayed tune. For now just sit back, relax, and enjoy. It's feel good Friday!
Remember to like us on Facebook, follow on Twitter and rate/comment below. Keep spreading the word too please! I'll be back tomorrow with the Fresh pick. Until then...
So an explanation is in order. I've been swamped with work thus leading me to be incapable of putting these out on time. I'm super sorry, to make up for it I got something massive going down tomorrow. One of my favorite songs, that will sure be one of you favorite songs soon. For Throwback Thursday we got some Sugar Hill Gang with Rappers Delight. Some people consider this the first rap song ever. The jury is still out for me, but it's a damn good and funky song. enjoy.
Remember to like us on Facebook, follow on Twitter, and rate/comment below. I've got the feel good Friday coming up in like 5 minutes. Until then...
This one comes from one of my most played/favorite duo's, Chiddy Bang. For me this song represents a lot of good memories and good times with my boys. For that reason this one goes out to my boys Songah "sclusvie" and Mitch "Pretty much a manager". Countless nights I've spent with them, and countless nights this song has been playing. So, this one is for them. And I guess for the rest of you as well. For those of you who don't know, it's Wednesday. Which means we're halfway done the week (yeah!). So keep grinding people, the weekend will be here soon enough, and with that, the opportunity to let loose. Until then just jam out to this. Sit back, relax and enjoy. It's Music Video Wednesday!
Remember to like us on Facebook, follow on Twitter and rate/comment below. Keep spreading the word, whether that be by word of mouth, posting this on Facebook, or tweeting it. Keep doing it.

First and foremost a big apology to all of you guys for this late of a posting. I tried to get it out earlier but I was just stuffed with work all day. So again, I apologize. Here we have Rubiks, Pimpton and Ajeah, taking a beat, chewing it up, regurgitating and then eating it again. In other words they completely destroy the beat (in the best way possible). I think that's all I really have to say about this one. Just let the song do the talking. Also, check the free download link at the bottom of the post and download this mixtape. Straight fire. Sit back, relax, and enjoy. It's Local Talent Tuesday!

One of those "don't sing along to it on the airplane" songs.
It's also one of those "prepare to become a monster" type songs. I got nothing much more to say about this song, just sit down, press play and prepare to go into beastmode. So, sit back, relax, and enjoy. It's Motivation Monday.

A day after Canada day and I'm still feeling patriotic. You know what that means? A little more Classified
The metrolyrics top song (I know weird place to get it, but I like to be different). Anyways, the top song is Nicki Minaj's Super Bass.
The top music video according to Yahoo is Katy Perry's T.G.I.F (once again, I don't pick the top two songs, I only pick the last one. Just wanted to clarify).
And my fresh pick, in honor of Canada Day is Classified's Oh...Canada.
Remember to like us on Facebook, follow us on Twitter. And keep spreading the word, I need your help with this so spread it like no other. Shout outs of the week go to Suchs, Creelman Kid, JDA, and everyone else who reads this. I'll be back Monday with a motivational song. Until then...
Happy Canada Day folks, lets start it off feelin fine.
This one's going to be nice and short. Classified and co. deliver a beauty of a feel good song with Feelin Fine. Since it's Canada Day I decided to go all Canadian on yall. So, after a long week of work we finally get the chance to slow down and just enjoy the little things. Hell, throw your feet up, grab a cold drink and just chill (see what I did there? cold drink, chill, yeah). So, sit back, relax, and enjoy. It's Feel Good Friday.
Remember to like us on Facebook, and follow us on Twitter. Also, keep spreading the word to people. I don't care how you do it, but keep spreading the good word. Luh you all. I'll be back tomorrow with the Fresh picks. Until then...
This one doesn't need anything to be written for it. It's simply a classic. Like, you can't watch this and not feel the old school run through your veins. I can't say much that will do this song justice, so I'll keep it short and sweet. Sit back, relax and enjoy. It's Throwback Thursday!
Remember to keep spreading the word to everyone, keep it going. Like us on Facebook, follow on Twitter, all that good stuff. I'll be back tomorrow with a feel good song. Until then...
"this video is a giant mindfuck" - esteemed YouTube viewer.
You know Kid Cudi is going to deliver something legendary in all the music videos he's in. This, however, will really mess with your mind. Like, it's pretty much the video equivalent of a Where's Waldo, but Waldo's not there. You follow? I'm not going to say much, cause this video's pretty much going to make a web in your mind, and just party there. Probs bring a Winnebago, and set up some bbq supplies and have a party. That's how legendary this is. Sit back, relax, and enjoy. It's Music Video Wednesday!
Remember to like us on Facebook, and follow on Twitter. Keep spreading the word, post on Facebook, tweet about it. Get the word out there. Let's get it going. I'll be back tomorrow with a throwback track (awe yeah). Until then...
Local talent Tuesday. I give you Regina's own, Pimpton.
Normally I'd write a little blurb about the song that I posted, but on this specific occasion I'd rather let the music do the talking. Pimpton has a beauty groove, and his rhymes go down smooth like lemonade on a hot day. Just take a minute to slow down, and lend your ears to Pimpton, cause you'll like it. Guaranteed. Plus, I'm a sucker for horns, so that really takes it over the top. So, sit back, relax and enjoy. It's Local Talent Tuesday.
Remember to like us on Facebook, follow us on Twitter, and spread the word. The more people who read this, the better. So keep pushing it. We're just 41 likes away from getting some videos going, so keep liking us on Facebook and what not. I'll be back tomorrow with a music video. Until then...
If a Roughrider wants some D-Pryde, he gets some D-Pryde.
I'm warning you now, if it's night time and your just reading this (which you shouldn't be doing, you need your 7-9 hours of sleep, you know this) you will not be able to sleep. I'm really advising you to only listen to this if you're about to enter beast mode and need some energy. Like, lets say you're walking your dog in a few minutes, DO NOT TOUCH THE PLAY BUTTON. You're going to be throwing bows, and flipping cars. Like you'll turn into this guy.
Seriously, just listen to this if you're ready. Actually, scratch that, forget what I said, lets get crazy. My two favorite rappers that I've discovered from Youtube in one song? Now that's what I'm talking about! Wax and D-Pryde take the beat by EOM, and go chainsaw massacre on it. Because they completely rip it up. But ya, be ready to be turned into a beast. It's like you drank some Cheetah Power Surge (that's no bull, amirite?) and then drank every other energy drink in the world..... in like 2 minutes. Get ready to go into beast mode my people. Feel the epicness coarse through your veins. Get motivated, get pumped. It's motivation Monday!
If your computer is still in one piece after that song, make sure to like us on Facebook, and follow us on Twitter. Also, rate/comment below, you know, all that good stuff. If you got a case of the Monday's keep your chin up, music's a powerful thing, just let it take you for a ride. Besides, it'll be Feel Good Friday soon enough! I'll be back tomorrow with some local talent. Until then...
Billboard's top song this week was once again, Adele's Rolling in the Deep. But I'm putting up the number two song with Pitbull ftNe-Yo, AfroJack & Nayer's Give Me Everything.
Vh1 top music video of the week was Jennifer Lopez ft. Pitbull's On The Floor.
The fresh pick for the week comes to us from Canada's own D-Pryde. With Highway which is off his new mixtape "Mars"
Weekly shout outs to Suchs, Creelmankid, and anyone else who reads this. The support is appreciated. Remember to like us on Facebook, follow us on Twitter, and rate/comment below. Please please please keep on spreading the word about this and try to get more people to read it. Any little bit helps. I'll be back Monday with a motivational song. Until then...
2 years ago from tomorrow, the world lost one of the greatest artists to ever live. This is for him. This is for Michael Jackson.This is it. (ok, you gotta admit, that was clever as hell).
Now that it is officially summer for not only myself, but for high school students as well, we get an opportunity to sit back for a bit and really enjoy the little things. With the end of a school year comes a regained energy and vision. A moment of clarity if you will, where we can put our blunders behind us and focus on relaxation/good times. It seems as though summer is so far away from the beginning of every year, yet it sneaks up on us and leaves before we know. So please please please take a moment and just relax. Take a week off and literally do nothing. You've been working for 10 months straight, now is a time to relax, and refuel. And of course feel good, so, today's Feel Good Friday is a Michael Jackson classic, P.Y.T. This song is the sample used in Kanye West's Good Life (that song will probably make an appearance here sometime). So with the beginning of summer I invite you to sit back, relax, and feel good. It's Feel Good Friday!

It's officially summer. So Will Smith is in order. Nuff said.
Yes, ladies and gentlemen it is officially summer time. So you know what that means, days of not doing anything and just relaxing. So, in honor of summer, and in honor of it being Throwback Thursday I thought I'd pull out a little something special today. I do this because I love you guys. Combining the feel good rhymes and nostalgic factor of a Will Smith cinematic feature song with some acting gives us today's Throwback Thursday! Allow yourself to relax and the memories of the 90's flow back into your body. Shout out to Shaun T for getting me thinking about Will Smith after he posted a Fresh Prince video on my wall (best show ever). He's also a big help on Throwback Thursdays because he's got a deep passion for these old school tracks, for that I thank him. So, press play, sit back and relax.

My favorite artist, with a song off my favorite album. Beauty!
If you know me you know that I love Kanye West. Just like a fat kid loves cake. Now, this is off his College Dropout which is by far my favorite album. I don't think I've ever heard an album all the way through so many times. Like, lets put it this way, if I was on an island with one album, this would be it. I think I made my point right? I can move on? K. sweet. So here's the music video to his song All Falls Down. The first time I saw it when he looks at his reflection in the mirror and in the car window I was like
Then I was like, "this will do, I quite enjoy this." Also, check out how the acoustics change when he's in the bathroom. Also note Common is in the video. And when Kanye is in the x ray you can see that there is a piece of metal in his jaw. For those of you who don't know Kanye West was in a near fatal car crash that resulted in his jaw having to be wired to his face. You can read more about it here. Now, for those of us who don't have wires in our face I invite you to sit back, relax and enjoy some Kanye. Don't forget to rate/comment below or on Facebook.

Now, we had some Rubiks last week, and this week we have more Rubiks, but we also have the Persian Prince! My boy Aryan laying down a phat hook (with a ph, cause that's how special it is). I think I was one of the first people to download this song, because I enjoyed it that much. It's a beauty, and I hope you guys enjoy. These guys are going to be feaurted on Tuesday's a lot. Consider them the house band to my blog. Local Talent Tuesday baby!

Motivation Monday everyone! I'm here to get you nice and pumped up/motivated for this week. Now, I've been awaiting this day all of last week because this has been on constant replay on my Ipod. If you're not ready to kick some ass after this, you probably don't have a pulse. Legit, you're probably dead. Childish Gambino, aka Donald Glover (guy who plays Troy on Community) is not only a great actor, but also a fantastic musician. Here he is with his song Hero. So, stand up, and get ready to get energized. It's Motivation Monday!

Welcome to a beautiful Saturday afternoon, ladies and gentlemen, it's time for the fresh songs of the week. Once again, the first two picks are not mine, but the last one is all me. Let's get into it shall we?
MMVA's are this weekend, so we're going all Canadian.
The top video from Much More Music is Avril Lavigne'sSmile, but I don't like that song, so I'm going to post the number 3 video (because I can). So, the top video according to me is Bruno Mars' Lazy Song
The top song according to the MuchMusic countdown is Who Says by Selena Gomez. Now, although she's from my culture, I just can't put that on this blog. The number two song will be featured instead, and this one's a party number and a half, Party Rock Anthem by LMFAO
And then, of course, is the fresh pick. Thisone is a fresh remix. From one of my favorite remix/mashup groups, White Panda we got Good For Girls. Mixing up some WalePretty Girls, with a little Matt & Kim Good for Great. It comes together to romance your ears in a magical way.
I realize this is a little later than usual, and that they're not the number one songs, but I felt rebellious so I had to break a few rules. Now comes the time where I get you guys to like us on Facebook, and follow us on Twitter and here on Google. Also, please tell your friends about this, the more people who read this the better.
And of course, as is tradition on Saturday we got out weekly shout outs. Shout to my boys Jlieb, Suchs, and JDA aka number 91 for talking to be about the blog and giving me suggestions/motivation to keep it going. They've really helped me clear my mind and pick good songs for the week. Shout out to anyone who's been promoting the page on Facebook. Big shout out to the dads out there, especially mine, he's my idol and he's pretty awesome, he's helped shape me into the man I am today and I am thankful for that. And of course shout out to my manager, and the man who keeps everything running smoothly even though I screw up all the time, Dave aka CreelmanKid. I'll be back tomorrow, ya that's right, there will be a song tomorrow in honor of Father's Day. Until then...
Ladies and gentlemen, the time is here. It is finally Friday, with this day many things come to an end. The end of a stressful week, the end of spring classes, etc. With endings new beginnings/hopes arise. The chance to devote more time to this blog, and the hope that the next week will be better than the last, but not better than the next. As customary on Friday I got you guys a feel good track that will hopefully bring a smile to your face and have you feeling all joyous and jubilant for the weekend. The hope is that all the bad things that happened this past week get brushed off by this audio and that a good feeling is the only thing that remains. Leaving you refreshed (see what I did there?) and renewed for the weekend/following week. So, without further adieu, I present Jurassic 5 with Concrete Schoolyard. Sit back, relax and enjoy the song. It's Feel Good Friday!
As always like us on Facebook, follow us on Twitter and here on the blog. And please please please spread the word about this. Tell everyone you know. Post it on your Facebook, Twitter, etc. Every little bit helps. Rate/Comment below or on Facebook. I'll be back tomorrow with the Fresh pick. Until then...
Now although this song never reached number 1 on any major charts, it definitely reached number 1 in our hearts (this is according to Wikipedia, the hearts thing, well, who the hell doesn't like this song). Fresh song out of 03, it really just added to the duet power of Ashanti and JaRule. This song brings back memories of when times where much simpler and where summer wasn't defined by jobs and summer classes. Instead, summer was just a time to hangout all day without any sense of responsibility. Shout out to my boy JDA aka number 91 for reminding me of this track. So, sit back, relax and enjoy a little flash to when times where much simpler.
Also remember to like us on Facebook, and follow us on Twitter and directly on here. I'll be back tomorrow with a feel good track. Until then...
First ever music video Wednesday and I had to start it off right. Now, although many other days do feature music videos, on Music Video Wednesdays, the song is picked because of the music video. So, all these picks are based off what the music video does. Creativity and uniqueness is rewarded on Wednesdays. There's not much to say about this video. Except that it is legendary! The Pharcyde killed it with there creativity. I'd rather the video do the talking than me. So, although this is shorter than usual, sit back, relax and enjoy.
Also, please tell everyone about this page and also follow on Twitter and like us on Facebook and also like us right here on Google, and then you can comment and stuff right on here. You can also comment/rate below or on Facebook. I'll be back tomorrow with a throwback track. Until then...
Local Talent Tuesdays, gotta start it off right with the theme song to the Queen City
Now, this one right here holds extra value as I consider Rubiks a friend, this song is absolutely delicious and should really be considered as the anthem to Regina. I don't know what the anthem is now......but it certainly isn't as good as this. Skillaboo, Rubiks, Keshia Angeline, straight killing it. This song is sure to be stuck in your head for a good, long time. So, sit back, relax and enjoy the journey and pleasure that is the 306, and the Queen City.
I definitely think you guys should all download it, upload it to your Ipod, or Zune (lol). Or cut a compact disc/tape. You should really support local music, and really super support it if that local music is dope. Yeah. So definitely download it and enjoy, I can personally vouch for it and can honestly say that it is absolutely fantastic.
You can also like him on Facebook.
And follow him on Twitter.
A reminder, please, tell everyone you know about the page. Hell, tell people you don't know. Say you see a stranger walking down the street, pull over, give him a handshake and tell him about this page. Also, leave comments below on your thoughts, or leave comments on the Facebook page. I'll be back tomorrow with a music video for yall. Until then...
First ever Motivation Monday, lets make it a good one.
The premise behind Motivation Monday is to get you nice and amped up for the week. We know it's Monday, and sometimes people struggle to get their week off on the right foot, and then they complain about how much they hate Mondays. Well, we're trying to make them a little better for you. This song, straight off T-Pain'sPreRevolver mixtape is one to surely get you motivated. Hell, the song is called Motivated, if you're not pumped up after this somethings wrong with you. Seriously, go to a doctor, get a full physical, because you might be dying. Now, T-Pain made this a contest allowing anyone to throw down a verse and then he would pick the best one and feature it on his mixtape. He did not just pick one, instead he picked the best two. Both of which get you nice and motivated. Check out both and tell me which one your favorite is.
I hope you guys have a stellar day and I'll see you tomorrow. Until then....
Ladies and gentlemen I present to you the songs of the week. I'd like to point out that the first two choices are not selected by myself, rather they are gathered from Billboard Top 100 and MTV top music video. The last choice however, the "fresh pick" if you will, is all me. This pick is not necessarily a song that is new or that is at the top of the charts, rather it is simply the song that I've really been feeling this week and that I've played the most. So, here are the songs.
From MTV's top video we have A Day To Remember's "All Signs Point To Lauderdale"
From Billboard Top 100, the top song this week was Adele's "Rolling in the Deep"
And finally, the moment you've all been waiting for (or just one of you) the fresh pick of the week. This week I've been heavily playing Chiddy Bang's latest mixtape Peanut Butter and Swelly and I've been really reeeally feeling the song "I Can't Stop". It samples Flux Pavillion's song of the same name and the track just goes hard. A nice, yet filthy drop really brings it all together.
As a new little thing, every Saturday there will also be a weekly shoutouts, this week it goes out to, well, it goes out to you guys who read this. However, the big shout outs go to my buddies who promoted my page on Facebook, I'm talking about you Suchs, Sean, Aryan, Linh and of course manager Dave, aka DCar aka CreelmanKid. I wouldn't be able to do this without him, so definately give him a look. I'll see yall again on Monday! Until then...
Stay Fresh,
RG
Also, Peanut Butter and Swellyis available for free download.
A reminder to tell your friends about this and get them to like it on Facebook and so on and so forth.

Yes my people, it is finally Friday, and what better way to start off this musical journey than with a song that I can only understand half of it. An awesome summergy half Spanish/ half Portuguese banger. Ladies and Gentlemen, on this first musical post, I wanted to bring you a little something that would not only make those twelve facial muscles smile, but may also allow a few muscles in the lower calcaneus region to start foot tapping. Maybe even a head bob, hell, maybe even a full on dance attack (I realize I'm getting a little carried away). Any who, I hope that you guys enjoy this post, and that it does indeed bring a smile to your face, and a warm feeling to your heart. It's a nice summer banger that gives you those feel good/ tropical vibes. So without further adieu, Don Omar ft. Lucenzo, Danza Kuduro. Ladies and Gentlemen, it's feel good Friday! Special Side note: Look at that acting in the beginning!! Oscar worthy!
Also, tell you're friends, enemies, frenemies, second cousins, neighbors, gym teachers, custodial attendants, and fitness guru's about this and tell them to check it out. Lets make this something to remember people.
Whats happening my people?! Salutations! So, you're probably here, all like "what is this, I'm confused, should I call my attorney? will this hurt? or will this be the single greatest thing to grace my web browser?" Well, to answer your questions, no, this will not hurt you, or anyone else for that matter. No, you don't need to contact your attorney (but if you have one shoot him a hello from me). YES, this will be fantastic. So, it pretty much builds off a little something I started on Facebook in the new year. I would post a "feel good" song every Friday, just to make people feel better, enjoy their day a little more, and have something to look forward to. So it's like that, but bigger. I now have a song per day (except Sunday). So a quick look at what each day of the week will offer:
- Motivation Monday - Local Talent Tuesday - Music Video Wednesday - Throwback Thursday - Feel Good Friday - Fresh Songs of the Week Saturday
For full details of each event check the "Minty Fresh Music" tab. I'll also post other random things, such as funny videos, dance videos, and interesting articles. There will also be a few surprises every month and so on and so forth. We will always strive for improvement and try our best to deliver the best of the best. I want to do this for you, the people. I have a passion for this, and I hope you take my hand and go on this magic carpet ride with me. First music post goes down on Friday, and we continue from there. Please Please Please tell your friends about this, and make them follow on all the different sites that this is on. The fans are the lifeblood, so I'm going to have to rely on you guys. I hope you guys are ready to have your socks rocked. The Freshness begins Friday. Until then, tell your friends, God bless, and stay fresh.
