We’re a couple weeks into 2019 & now that we’ve had a bit of time to reflect & look back on all that happened in music last year, here are my favorite albums of 2018. While the list doesn’t have a real order all the way through, I’ve singled out the 10 albums that impacted me the most and that I had on repeat most often and wrote a blurb about each one.

This week I stumbled upon an article where varying artists highlighted what were their favorite things they listened to in 2017.

I don’t know that cinema can save the world but watching this AT LEAST a hundred times this year certainly saved a part of me — of my heart, my soul, my sanity. This video is by far my favorite thing of 2017.Read More
Want to give a major shoutout to all my friends and other cool people who came out to Broken Shaker last Saturday and vibed out to some jams for the night. I played a wide range of songs, including hip-hop, R&B, soul, funk, and a few indie hybrids that don't really have a genre bucket but made people dance. I always love the energy in that place and I enjoy the conversations that I have with random patrons that really know their music. Looking forward to my next set there on Saturday, January 6th. Tell your friends about me *Chris Tucker voice*
