I live in Seattle. These are things that catch my attention, pique my interest and/or make me want to pass notes in class like a 7th grader

Beyoncé Remembers Etta James
It’s no secret that Etta James inspired a generation of vocalists. One of her most famous fans, Beyoncé, has issued a statement following the passing of the blues legend. Beyoncé portrayed James in the 2008 film Cadillac Records, for which she was nominated for a Golden Globe, and covered her classic “At Last.”
”This is a huge loss. Etta James was one of the greatest vocalists of our time. I am so fortunate to have met such a queen. Her musical contributions will last a lifetime. Playing Etta James taught me so much about myself, and singing her musicinspired me to be a stronger artist. When she effortlessly opened her mouth, you could hear herpain and triumph. Her deeply emotional way of delivering a song told her story with no filter. She was fearless, and had guts. She will be missed.”
May she rest in peace.
Blue Scholars - Rani Mukerji
My current favorite song from the Blue Scholars latest album, Cinemetropolis. Musically addictive and politically inspiring this album is completely worth the purchase.
Thinking ‘Bout Somethin’ from Hanson
I would say this is for Jess but let’s be honest, its dance-y and delightful, its for everybody. Happy Friday.
Hummingbird - The Weepies
Always been like a hummingbird
And I can’t keep still
Listen up, lover listen up, I never will
This has been one of my anthems this year. I am really hoping they play it on Sunday!
Slick Watts by The Blue Scholars from Cinemetropolis
