Let The Cuffing Begin
For some folks music is nothing more than accompaniment, something that plays in the background of everything else going on with little or no influence on our actions. Not for me. For me music has the power to influence and shape my world. It is the soundtrack of my life. There are moments and memories I look back on that are imbued with the the songs that mattered most at the time. When I think of elementary school and my neighborhood growing up I hear B.I.G’s “Ready To Die.” When I think of my first crush – in 6th grade, I hear Tevin Campbells “Can We Talk” and “I’m Ready.” When I think of high school all I hear is Hov. Yes, for me, music is affecting. Today is the first Friday of cuffing season which means many of you will be boo-caking all weekend. Next week the homey Streetz is going to bless you with the how to guide for getting your cuff on. But before all that, let’s make sure you got your music together. This right here is my official cuffing season soundtrack. Let’s jump right in.
Diary of a Mad Band – Jodeci
If you don’t have this in your collection – you fail at life. Diary of Mad Band is Jodeci’s magnum opus. It introduced us to an unknown producer named Timbaland and an unknown producer/singer named “Misdemeanor” who later became Missy Elliot. Key songs to add to your rotation include “Cry For You” and “Feenin.”
Voodoo – D’Angelo
Forget about the fact that D’Angelo looks like ODB’s long lost twin brother. Forget about the fact that he got caught soliciting a prostitute in the park. Voodoo is a classic. Voodoo is the kind of album you you put on when the forecast reads rain all weekend and you’re planning on spending the entire time with someone special. Voodoo is so subtly smooth and soulful that when it plays, you can’t help but want to make sweet, slow, passionate love all day and all night long. Songs to add to your playlist include: “Devil’s Pie,” “Send it On,” and of course “Untitled (How Does it Feel).”
Ready – Trey Songz
I’m not sure if you’re like me, but after all of the allegations, I had to remove all R.Kelly songs from my love making playlist. Making love to his joints just seems to skeevy. Thankfully, Trey Song dropped “Ready” right on time. Where as Voodoo makes you wanna make love, Ready makes you wanna bone. Not much more to say than that. Key songs to add to the playlist are: “Panty Dropa,” “I Invented Sex,” and “Neighbors Know My Name.”
Love Deluxe – Sade
It was really difficult to choose between this, Sade’s third album and the first album “Diamond Life.” The trump card in this game is the classic “No Ordinary Love.” Is it possible to not love “No Ordinary Love” – particularly the extended seven minute album version? Wow. Other songs to add to the playlist from this album are “Kiss of Life” and “Cherish the Day.”
Janet– Janet Jackson
Janet took there on this album. It was like she said, you know what, I’m a fully grown woman, I love sex, and I’m going to sing about it. This was the first album where Janet went totally R&B on us and let us see just how sensual and loving she could be. Songs to add to the playlist for this album include: “That’s The Way Love Goes,” “Again,” and “Anytime, Anyplace.” By far, my favorite Janet album – especially during cuffing season.
Purple Rain Soundtrack – Prince
If you ask most people, the most important album of the 1980′s was Michael Jackson’s “Thriller.” While I won’t deny the cultural importance of MJ’s joint, it is not my favorite album of that decade. My favorite album of that decade, and the most important album of that decade for me was Prince’s “Purple Rain.” The joint is just perfect. Never before and not since this album has anyone ever captured the musical sweet spot that sits between funk, rock, soul and rhythm and blues. It’s just a perfect album. My favorite joints for the cuffing music playlist include: “Purple Rain,” “Take Me With You” and “The Beautiful Ones.” As an aside, if you really like “The Beautiful Ones,” Mariah has an awesome remake of this joint on her album “Butterfly” featuring Dru Hill. Check that out and thank me later.
Kind of Blue – Miles Davis
This is the album that changed the face of Jazz music. Miles knocked it out the box with this one. It’s the sort of music that is both conversational and romantic. It’s suitable for a nice home cooked, candle lit dinner, while also suitable for post coital cuddling. Songs to really focus on are: “Flamenco Sketches,” “Blue in Green” and “So What.”
Thursday – TheWeeknd
Gotta add something current to the list and I can’t think of anything better to add than TheWeeknd’s latest offering. I already wrote a whole post about one of the songs on this joint so y’all know I dig it. I know reviews of it have been mixed but there are definitely some joints worth noting on here. My favorite joints include: “Thursday,” “The Birds pt. 1” “The Zone,” and “Lonely Star.” Looking forward to more new music from this dude – clearly talented and clearly soulful – this guy is poised to do something special.
That’s my soundtrack. What’s yours? What do you listen to when you want to set the scene just right. Are you cuffing season certified yet? If not, download the above, load it on your playlist and this weekend… stay low and keep firing.
The Weeknd WILL make a good girl go bad
i never heard The Weekend *bows head*
I never heard of The Weekend. *shrug*
Love that you included Miles Davis! I've always thought Blue in Green was a great cuddle song. To add to the jazz tracks I'd like to suggest In a Sentimental Mood by Duke Ellington.
Great list! Ill try to add more tomorrow
"Sentimental Mood" is timeless
In a sentimental Mood" will have you drowing in a sea of emotions as every note takes you deeper and further away from the surface of reality and into the realms of another world.
Yea, definitely a song worth mentioning.
ALL OF THIS! Can I just tell you….. Blue in Green is my absolute FAVE!!!!!! and Vodoo has been in rotation the entire summer for me.
I would add:
Maxwell – Embrya "Drowndeeep. Hula" and "Submerge" whew
Sweetback – Sweetback Album every song!
Art of Noise "Moments in Love"
Prince -Sign o' the Times "If I were your girlfriend" and "Adore"
Norman Brown – Celebration
I'm ready the the cuffing commence LOL…..
I was just listening to Embrya the other day! Don’t forget Maxwells “Urban Hang Suite” and “Blacksummersnight”
SN:I would trade Trey Songz “Ready” for his “Anticipation” mixtape if you haven’t heard that you are definitely slippin That whole thing is fire!
HIGH FIVE on the "Moments in Love" & "Adore" mentions!!!!!!
1.Here we go again- Ray charles
2. Marsha Ambrosius-late night early mornings
3.TLC- Crazy Sexy Cool
4.Jill scoot- Crown Royal
5. Alaine- Sacrifice
Whewww!!! Crown Royal on Ice though?! Just the THOUGHT of the song is enough to make me make a phone call…lol! If yall aren't up on that, just google the lyrics and see if they don't make you feel some type of way immedietely…
Jill is a #LowKey freak.
My recent post That Certain Something “Watch The Throne” is Missing
there is nothing lowkey about Jill's freakiness.
My recent post I may be young in age…
True…Jill a freak
My recent post ItzTrizz617: Do it for the niggas sharing drinks in the club right now…she will
Wow! Never heard this but just read the lyrics.
Love your avi picture & THE FLAG TOO! *BULLET* ;o)
* as if its needed *
Gotta add another co-sign to "Crown Royal"!!!!!!
I love all of this! but I have to add:
Maxwell-Sumthin Sumthin mellowsmooth remix off of the Love Jones soundtrack!!!
Adele-Lovesong and Make You Feel My Love
Theophilus London-I Want You
Jill Scott-My Love
Lauryn Hill-Nothig Even Matters
Corinne Baliey Rae- Breathless
…..I could go on all night so I'll stop here, oh and that Mariah cover, thanks for that
My recent post "However richly endowed we may be, we always lack something, and the best among us feel our own…"
I'd like to add The Weeknd's House Of Balloons to this list. His mumbling over that crazy production just…. works.
Good list! Folk slept on Mariah & Dru Hill's cover of "Beautiful Ones," so I'm glad to see it's honorable mention. Add "Baby Doll" from that album to your playlist, too.
1. "I Want You" by Marvin Gaye
2. "Crown Royal" by Jill Scott
3. "All I" by Jill Scott
4. "Skin" by Rihanna
5. "Knockin Da Boots"
6. "So Anxious" by Ginuwine
7. "Customer" by Raheem Devaughn
8. "Break You Off" by The Roots ft Musiq
9. "Slowly" by Tank
10. "Can You Handle It" by Usher
My recent post bsquared86: RT @DaveCanon_: RT @1o_a_K sometimes you gotta remind yourself who you are and what you deserve and decide to walk that shit everyday.
I'm digging your list…
My recent post I may be young in age…
Minus Rihanna, this IS pretty great, lol…
naw shawty. have you heard Skin?!? that song is A BANGER.
My recent post Walk your broken heart through that door…
Thank You! Totally agree
(writing song titles for playlist)
Good list Most… but let me dig in the crates and add a couple of suggestions I inherited from my mothers vinyl collection.
1. Hot Buttered Soul by Issac Hayes… if for no other reason than to listen to the 12:03 minute version of Walk On By which combines classic strings and hot guitar put this on repeat and remember to bring protection the old school don’t call this baby making music for nothing.
2. Blue Light Til Dawn by Cassandra Wilson… this album starts with You Don’t Know What Love Is and ends with I Can’t Stand the Rain, everything in between is driven by the smokey sensuous quality of Cassandra’s voice. Cuffing music at its finest.
3.Amigos by Santana… Europa (Earth’s Cry Heaven’s Smile) is arguably one of the best guitar solos ever, every time I hear it I want to call up Carlos and ask him who he likes his eggs. This album organically oozes sexy in a way that doesn’t make you seem pressed in anyway.
4.Aja by Steely Dan… Donald Fagen’s voice rides melodically over smooth loungey jazz groove and is their anything sexier than saxophone… nope
Happy Cuffing Season ~JS
Also glad to see “Kind of Blue” on the list. I recently bought a book that chronicles how it was conceived and executed.
Keeping with the classic jazz theme I’ll go with “Baby It’s Cold Outside”, “Tenderly”, “Dancing Cheek to Cheek” and “Isn’t This a Lovely Day” all by Louis Armstrong and Ella Fitzgerald.
Good List but what would a playlist be without Stevie & Donny??!!??
My list would include
1) knocks me off my feet: Stevie Wonder
2) daily bread: Martin Luther
3) lay down: Floetry
4) misty: Donny Hathaway
5) my loves old fashioned: CeeLo Green
6) Sunday morning: Maroon 5
7) banana pancakes: Jack Johnson
all night: Damon & Stephen Marley
9) the face: Kings of Leon
10) Moody’s mood for love: Elliott Yamin version
11) so beautiful: MusiqSoulchild
12) all night long: SWV
13) I’d die without you: PM Dawn
14) teach you a lesson: Robin Thicke
15) making love: Eric Benet
I could probably keep going, but 15 songs a good CD doth make!
the face: Kings of Leon
I adore this song
Have you heard
Cream: Sunshine of your Love?
Blood Sweat & Tears: You've made me so very happy (so classic) and When I die?
The Black Keys: Everlasting light and The Only One?
Kings of Leon: Mi Amigo (my absolute favorite)
I could pretty much live off of the Kings of Leon alone
the Tymes: So much in love? (<—- How could I forget this?)
My recent post I’ve been loving you too long
I haven't heard Cream or The Black Keys I will check it out – but I am so on that Kings of Leon!
I was a crazed Elliott Yamin Fan when he was on American Idol! Love the guy…
And HIGH FIVE on the "teach you a lesson" mention…
Isn't he just delightful? I love his song Moving On… Before I listened to the whole album, I would jsut listed to that song on repeat.
Have you heard of James Morrison or Daniel Merriweather or David Ryan Harris or Emily King?? All great and noteworthy artists
My recent post I’ve been loving you too long
Teach You A Lesson!?
Yup! That song needed a video
(thinking 2self…"hmmm I should make one")
Great list!
Maxwell “Till the Cops Come Knockin”
Donnell Jones “Do You Wanna” I love Donnell Jones and wish he would get more attention like he used to.
Donnell Jones entire 1st album was the sh*t
Oops I said a bad word,
Give me Free please??
Great list – proud to say I have half these albums and tracks from the other 4
fantastic list. i love that you kept it retro . But I think the best songs on Ready were black roses and one love, the other songs I hear too much on the radio to play on my own.
I love music post because everybody gets on the comment section with good choices, than you hits you like 'damn, I do need to re-download that Voodoo album'
I got a playlist on my ipod called "Missionary with the candles lit" its like 400 songs deep. Some featured songs include:
Bobby Brown: Roni
Force MD Tender Love
Ready for the World
Teedra Moses – Backstroke
Roger Troutman – be your man
Peter Gabriel – In your eyes
Goo Goo Dolls – Iris
DMB – Crash into me
R Kelly I can't sleep remix
Troop – All I do (i think its better than the J5 version, sorry MJ)
Matchbox 20 – 3am …. and the list goes on for what feels like every unitl I catch a leg cramp.
*forever
Teedra Moses – Backstroke => Get out of my head!!!
They wouldnt let me post my full list so here is the edited version

Tyrese – Signs of love making
TLC => Lets take our time
Chaka Khan => my funny valentine.
Anthony Hamilton => Exclusive, clearly
Eric Clapton – Wonderful tonight
My recent post Weave-Lapse
All of this… except R.Kelly. Like Most, he's no longer in my rotation. I really love this list. Especially the additions of Crash, Iris, and 3am. Love it!
My recent post My Love Is Like…
"Troop – All I do (i think its better than the J5 version, sorry MJ)"
Agreed!!!!
Oh.
Mint Condition "Pretty Brown Eyes"
Co-signing the co-sign of the "All I Do" mention…my fav version too!!!
Add to that, Bilal’s “Love For Sale” — the whole album; Love Jones soundtrack; and both Raphael Saddiq albums.
Addendums: Bilal's "Love for Sale" album, The Love Jones Soundtrack (remember when soundtracks were almost if not better than albums?!), and both of Raphael Saddiq's solo albums (though TonyToniTone's "Lay Your Head on My Pillow is the TRUTH!).
And the rest…
B.I.G – Sky is the limit, Get money<=this beat slays me…
Tupac – Do 4 love
Busta Rhymes – Whats it’s gonna be(f.JanetJ), I’ll do it all (f.Latoya.J)
Common – Come closer, light, I want you
FLOETRY!!!
Tweet& Bilal – best friends
Aaliyah – 1 in A Million
Erykah Badu – I want you
Lenny Kravitz – Heaven help, Again
Amy Winehouse – My bed
Alicia Keys – Unthinkable, Diary
Bob Marley – Wait in vain
Gentlman – Jah jah never fail (woooi oiiii)
Wow, sorry for taking over your comment thread….*fans self*
“Erykah Badu – I want you”
In the worst kinda way—this is my favorite song of all time.
It's not my fav all time song but THIS takes me there…LOVE IT!!!!
Amy Winehouse – In My Bed ……. COLD!!!!!!
Amy Winehouse – Frank is a deep album. I could listern to it top to button no pause or skip button required.
apologies fo rthe typos that should have been "I could listen to it from top to bottom"
Yeah … The lyrics on it are crazy.
The sample for Sky's the Limit is called My Flame by Bobby Caldwell, which isn't a bad song either. And speaking of Bobby Caldwell, What You Won't Do For Love is an excellent song for cuffing season.
From the mind of Tracy Morgan…..who trying to get pregnant. LOL
This music will def have your heels to the sky ladies, goodness!!!
Great post Most! So fun! I'll co-sign the ladies above with Jill Scott's "Crown Royal." That song! OMG And I'll add:
some otherJill Scott joints "He Loves Me" and "All I"
Floetry "Say Yes"
Beyonce "Speechless"
Isley Brothers "For the Love of You," "Choosey Lover," "Between the Sheets" I like a lot of Isley Bros.
Al Green "Simply Beautiful"
Lauryn Hill "Nothing Even Matters"
John Legend "Good Morning" omg
Keith Sweat "Nobody" lol
Lonnie Liston Smith "Enchantress"
And I gotta co-sign that Trey Songz Ready album especially "You Belong to Me"
Omg yesss Isley Brothers everything!!
My recent post Currently On Repeat
OOOO YES to the Isley brothers – footsteps in the dark please!!!
My recent post Weave-Lapse
Yess love this post!! Voodoo changed my life for real smh. Like I skip songs when it comes on my shuffle because there is a time and a place lol. I agree with you on the No Ordinary Love piece but I still think Stronger Than Pride wins out (Nothing Can Come Between Us and Paradise especially). That's just me though. Complete co-sign for Ready and the R. Kelly sentiments. He's off the ruggy list. These are the albums I'd add – with some notes:
Jill Scott – The Light of The Sun (also, this song is not on that album, but "Imagination." Whooo chile)
Corinne Bailey Rae – Corinne Bailey Rae
John Legend – Evolver (this one a million times over, especially Good Morning and This Time)
My recent post Currently On Repeat
Musiq Soulchild – musiqinthemagiq (pretty much every track on this album goes for cuffing time, people really underestimated this one in my opinion)
112 – Part III <—- yes.
Timothy Bloom – The Budding Rose (I don't know if a lot of people have heard about him yet, but just look up "End of Time" featuring V. The video is kinda NSFW in a really beautiful way but yea, he's amazing.
I'll probs be back with more and I'm going to have a downloading party this weekend with what everybody else puts up. Can't wait.
My recent post Currently On Repeat
I am sitting here looking up all the songs I had never heard before. Thanks for the Timothy Bloom suggestion. Beautiful video!
I think I may try to cuff a goon this season so my playlist may look a little different
TrillVille – Some Cut
Three 6 Mafia – Lil' Freak
D4L – Bobble Head
Khia – My Neck, My Back
GUCCI MANE [feat. Ludacris & Lil kim] – Freaky Girl
NaS – Oochie Wally

Plies – Bust it baby
KEMA! Haha…. you're killing me. You gotta throw the Akinyele on there…

"throw on a rap cd we gangsta f*ck, this ain't r&b smooth, i ain't a r&b dude. poured a glass of army, got mami in the mood. then she stripped for me like the moulin rouge" – #NameThatLyric
My recent post The Dating Game
"… I think I might wife her… you know powder blue rocawear suit white nike her. Add mami to the cipher Roc for life cuz… the game mother******"
Hov!
My recent post That Certain Something “Watch The Throne” is Missing
Add Ghostface's Stapleton Sex and Wildflower in addition to Killa Cam's Suck it Or Not and Cookies and Applejuice we're set.
You talkin about Cee Lo Green's Wildflower??? I LOVE that song!
Wildflower is dope, but thats not goon music.
Kema, you will find plenty of them in the RIC so you might wanna add some old school TRU, some Boosie, and some Dipset for good measure. lol.
My recent post I may be young in age…
Girl its because I am in Richmond that I have to go this route in the first place. lol!
I was just doing rap music in general not necessarily goon music.
I was replying to Krystl. she mentioned Cee Lo's song, not the Ghostface one
however his version of the song with that title is dope
My recent post Walk your broken heart through that door…
You know I'm not up on all of this Reecie but I didn't think that was a goon song, I just love the song, it doesn't necessarily seem like something you'd throw on to set a mood either though. Imma have to go listen to Ghostface's song now. The only song I know by him is that one that goes "All that I got is you…" makes me cry.
stapleton sex is my sh*t
My recent post The Dating Game
You a fool Kema! That’s why I love you girl! Add Juvenile “Slow Motion” and Devin the Dude “Ligole Bips” to that! lol You so crazy!
Oh and Trina's "Look Back at Me."
Oh my!!! That "slow motion" is for the foreplay lap dance. lol! But now I have to find out about this Dude.
Girl I don't know much about him. My hubby put me on him but he was on Scarface's "F*ck faces" and most of his lyrics are just funny as h.ell! He raps high.
*Spits Out Coffee*
Okay. I see You!!!
LMBO
Kema… you are alright
I Love it!!!
End of the Night Luda and Bobby V – I have a routine to that LOL
YES!! I know not everybody just "makin luuuuv"!! Get it Kema!! Plies, Plies, Plies! Please Excuse My Hands…
Deepside – Booty Music.

YESSSSSS!! Kema… my whole iPad… Goon Loving music. Omg. I'm trying something new this cuffing season!
Where to start…
Waka Flaka – Round of Applause
Ludacris – Tell Me A Secret
Twista – Yellow Light
and old school…
Busta Rhymes/Janet Jackson – What's It Gonna Be

112- Part III (sweet love)
floetry- floetic (say yes)
donnell jones- where i wanna be (this luv)
vivian green- a love story (be good to you)
ryan leslie- transition (i choose you)

marvin gaye- love songs (feel all my love inside)
frank ocean- nostalgia (american wedding)
eric roberson- the collection (softest lips)
My recent post The Dating Game
I agree with this… the music is for before and after but not during.
My recent post That Certain Something “Watch The Throne” is Missing
What's wrong with DURING? Pretty Ricky's debut album was PERFECT for during. At least, the way I do it.
i'd rather make my own soundtrack than listen to someone else. i like to hear moans, ahhhs and skin slapping.
My recent post The Dating Game
Wow, lol. Thanks for the auditory imagery, LOL.
Yup!!
They're EPIC CLASSICS!!!!!
)
o-m-geesh when I made my "first time" playlist 112 Sweet Love was the first song! lol wow I forgot all about that song.
*Clap of approval*
Yeah the sounds of love making (no tyrese) don't need a music BUT I would not hate if these play in the background.
It's always nice when songs come on that give you flash backs *glazed eyes*
A-greed. Except dancehall or classical once in a while (Am I weird?), certainly create a different energy…
Don't forget MY album!!:
http://itunes.apple.com/us/album/an-old-soul/id43…
Full of songs to get you through those cold Fall and Winter nights.
<<<shameless promotion ended>>>
Back in college, I used to have myself a "Booty Playlist". When my computer crashed and all that was gone, I was sad for like a MONTH. Full of deep, sensual jams like "T-Shirt & My Panties On", and "My Neck, My Back".
Side note: If we're revealing our "first time" songs, mine was "Sex in the Kitchen", by R. Kelly. Don't judge me! My dude told me to put on some music to make me comfortable and I just couldn't miss out on a song with a breakdown of, "Girl I'm ready to toss yo' salad!!" That ish had me crackin' up!!
I see ya got a lil taste … DJ Top 5's Music to Blaze to playlist:
The Weeknd – What You Need
Vikter Duplaix – Nothing Like Your Touch
Stevie Wonder – Lookin' For Another Pure Love (Cuffin Season extraordinaire)
Res – 700 Mile Situation
Raheem DeVaughn – Desire
Leon Ware – Girl, Girl, Girl (from "The Education of Sonny Carson Soundtrack" … Blaxploitation FTW)
Kev Brown ft. Chronkite, Eric Roberson & Wayna – Hennessy Pt. 2
Jill Scott – So Gone (What My Mind Says) ft. Paul Wall
Dwele – Dim The Lights ft. Raheem DeVaughn
Slum Village – Climax (Girl Sh*t)
Marvin Gaye – Distant Lover
*Undeniable*
Slum Village – Climax (Girl Sh*t)
Next to Fall in Love, tainted and call me….
SV are the truth.
My recent post Weave-Lapse
J Dilla killed Fantastic Vol. 2 … That is the move!!!
Thanks for the find with "Climax". I'm a big Slum Village fan.
this WHOLE list is the business….and 'Climax' is a dead ringer for the messy hair/glassy eye look around these parts….
My recent post brown_shugah: @KeyRoJo so that prayer I prayed last night for you, I need for you to pray for my soul today…smh
Yo, for contemporary stuff I decided to go the TheWeeknd because that's what I'm rocking right now but, in case you missed it, that Miguel album from last fall goes hard in the paint too.
"Sure Thing"
"All I Want is You"
"Vixen"
"Quickie"
"Girls Like You"
All dope.
He also has a really great cover of Britney Spears' "Hold It Against Me" Check it out here:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XPpHgm5nRXE
My recent post That Certain Something “Watch The Throne” is Missing
I love "Quickie" it makes being a jumpoff sound appealing. lol! But then you hear "sure thing" and realize thats what you really want.
Quickie was the sidechick anthem of the summer
My recent post ItzTrizz617: Do it for the niggas sharing drinks in the club right now…she will
Yes! Miguel is a definite! But you cannot leave out "Teach Me!" That's the best one imo.
he's on his Prince sh*t for real with Teach Me.
My recent post I may be young in age…
Perfect make-out music
Most this is on point! Jodeci rains supreme forever! There will never be another like them. Might I add
Amel Laurrieux- For Real
Amerie- That whole first album! "All I Have"
Kindred- Far Away
Jill Scott- Whatever & Cross My Mind
Trey Songz- Anticipation mix tape (I'd argue that its better than Ready!)
Marshia Ambrosius- Late Nights/Early Mornings
Jamie Foxx- Unpredictable (the WHOLE album!)
Anthony Hamilton- The Point of it All
Janet- Twenty-Foreplay
Eric Benet- Chocolate Legs
TLC- Red Light Special
Robin Thicke- Sex Therapy
Usher- Seduction
And of course I wouldn't be me if I didn't throw in my gurl Bey! Speechless & Dance For You!!!
Aww Mina I commented up above about Treys Anticipation mixtape before I saw your comment girl. That Mixtape is definitely hotter than Ready My favorites off of it are “Did she Know” and “Scratchin me up” what are yours?
I really like Amel Larrieux- Your Eyes and No One Else… Beautiful
and Janet- Take Care off of the 20 Y.O. Album
My recent post I’ve been loving you too long
Nice Variety! I just can’t have” So What” without John Coltrane’s “A Love Supreme”…. and then you can ease into Trey but I’d Replace that Panty Droppa with Doorbell, and Add to Janet’s ” Would You Mind or Discipline” ohh, and I definitely have to add Jill’s “Until Then, I Imagine “cause that right there really is the beginning….all you can do is Imagine when you just cuffing lol!
I like the direction you're going with this Fuzzy. "Would You Mine" is my joint and Coltrane's "A Love Supreme" is about as good as it gets as far as love making Jazz is concerned:
No Matter What … It is With God
He is gracious and merciful
His way is through love
In which we all are
It is truly -A Love Supreme-
-John Coltrane
For bonus points, name the movie that ends with this quote. As a hint… the movie was originally supposed to be called "A Love Supreme"
My recent post That Certain Something “Watch The Throne” is Missing
Mo Betta Blues
One of my favorite movies!!!
+10 for Fuzzy!
My recent post That Certain Something “Watch The Throne” is Missing
Coltrane's "Naima" >>>>>>
Im a Trane Fan all the way soooo Naima is def in my top 10! I Can talk about his songs/covers all day. That man had it! When I Look at his old footage on youtube… smh, he just had swagger.
Ok I may have gotten a little carried away with the song titles, but get my comment out of limbo darnit!!! LoL
But can we take a moment to talk about Janet's "Funny How Time Flies" from Rhythm Nation? When she starts talking that French ish??? I was but a wee boy when I first heard that but even then I knew it was sexy as hell.
As a matter of fact, it'd be totally awesome if one of you ladies out there who speak fluent French could take a listen and translate that for us.
My recent post That Certain Something “Watch The Throne” is Missing
I must admit I had a Janet mixtape just by itself and Let’s wait a while and Funny How time flies where tracks 1 and 2 Anytime Any Place was #3. After that its a blurr since I haven’t seen it in about 13 years. However I continue to update my Janet mix on my Ipod pretty regularly. Her and Jill you just have to give them their own slowjam file. New addition to my rotation has been Marsha Ambrosius…she has some really nice tracks too! All the way back to Floetry with Say Yes!
Something about Marsha is sexy to me, like shes not attractive but i want her…
My recent post ItzTrizz617: Do it for the niggas sharing drinks in the club right now…she will
If my French hasn't failed me she says: iI me plait d'etre avec tu, je ne sais pas ou, o le temps s'est enfui. Je t'aime mon cheri Which translates as I'm so happy to be with you, it doesn't matter where… Oh, where does the time go. I love you, beloved (or dearest, or hunny *insert random term of endearment here*).
What she says isn't exactly grammatically correct, but it sounds beautiful. Have you heard Donny sing Je vous aime beaucoup? In his southern drawl… still very nice!
My recent post I’ve been loving you too long
This is awesome. Thanks for this Just!
I haven't heard that, gonna check it out on youtube tho..
My recent post That Certain Something “Watch The Throne” is Missing
Thanks for the translation, I never knew what she was saying.
You have to listen to Madeleine Peyroux (like a French Billie Holiday I swear) but they all sing this great song: Ne Me Quitte Pas (roughly translated: Never, or please dont, leave me)
There's this one part I really love:
Moi je t'offrirai Des perles de pluie Venues de pays Où il ne pleut pas Je creuserai la terre Jusqu'après ma mort Pour couvrir ton corps D'or et de lumière Je ferai un domaine Où l'amour sera roi
Which translates: I will (personally) offer you tear drops (or rain drops) in places where it doesn't rain. I will drill a hole in the ground, until the brink of death to cover your body in in gold and light. I would make you a palace where love would be king (or would reign like a king).
image the picture this love song creates… Beautiful. And the English translation (if you ever leave me) doesn't do it justice…
But you know who have the French beat? Russians! I've read some of the most heart wrenching and passionate poetry by Pushkin, Dostoevsky… with love songs by Chaplain. They really know how to string some words together… *sigh*
My recent post I’ve been loving you too long
House of Balloons, the entire thing, top to bottom. Listening to that album makes me want to do bad things, and then have sex. lol.
My recent post My Love Is Like…
I can't get with that Ready, at all. I like Trey's first two albums personally. Diary of a Mad Band is a classic, and Jodeci is one of my favorite groups so I will cosign that. Janet is also my fave by Damita Jo. I prefer my hometown homie's debut classic Brown Sugar but Voodoo is dope as well. The Weekend only has two songs that do it for me: "What You Need" and "The Zone" all in all, nice choices.
I also don't really associate cuffin season with necessarily just sexy music. it can be lots of things that play out through the courtship of getting to know someone. and because I blog about music all the time I don't really have a list, but I will shamless plug and say all of my posts reflect my great musical taste.
My recent post I may be young in age…
"and because I blog about music all the time I don't really have a list,"
See! Thats why I was excited to know what your list would look like. What music would you play during the courtship? C'mon… Do it for the kids!
Kema I'm lazy! but because you asked–and I already have a playlist for this I will share some of them:
Why Don't We Fall in Love – Amerie (really her entire first CD)
The Newness – Eric Roberson
Believe – Raheem DeVaughn (his debut works as well, but this song right here!!!)
I think I love you -Algebra
Falling -Amerie
For A lifetime ~ Teedra Moses
Against the World – Robin Thicke
The Hunger – Eric Roberson
Lady – D'Angelo
The Way – Jill Scott
Certified – Lloyd
Cupid – 112
Sure Thing – Miguel
Fancy – The Dream
My recent post I may be young in age…
Fancy – The Dream
I will tell you right now…. there are not enough Dream songs on everyone's list. I heard the free mixtape he just dropped went hard too. Everyone wants to be up on Frank Ocean, Miguel, The Weekend.. they must of forgot who was the first provocative R&B singer of the new millenium.
you're right cheekz, he has tons of bangers, I'm a huge fan, of him and Lloyd actually but you knew that.
I recently read something where Dream was basically saying I led the way for dudes like Frank and The Weeknd on their emo sh*t. he's right. his new mixtape is straight too. matter fact I'm going to listen to that now.
My recent post I may be young in age…
That is right we are both Lloyd fans.
That little ninja makes me so happy with the way he sings (PAUSE).
Great touch, that was a dope post you did from way back when. Always great reads on your's and Lala's personal blog. Those two and Slim's on the only jawns I have bookmarked.
*plug aint shameless if its a third party*
I was tossed up between Brown Sugar and Voodoo. "You're My Lady" is one of my all time favorite joints to play in the car but decided to go with Voodoo – mainly because of "How Does It Feel."
On The Weeknd's "Thursday" you not feeling Lonely Star? That's my joint.
And yeh, your blog does reflect an above average taste for great music.
My recent post That Certain Something “Watch The Throne” is Missing
Nice playlist Most!!
This is definitely an ambiance (set the mood) kind of playlist while knocking back a few cocktails. I can’t be having background music during the session, it’ll throw me off rhythem.
But may I add:
Sisqo – Incomplete, Enchantment
Maroon 5 – Sweetest Goodbye
Crowded House – Don’t Dream It’s Over
Sade – Moon and Sky
Phil Collins – Groovy kind of love, Air of Night
The List Goes on But I’ll stop here.
I debated between sweetest goodbye and sunday morning… But I still like Sunday morning better. And Adam Levine is a freak, have you heard Kiwi?
My recent post I’ve been loving you too long
kiwi is a fave of mine >>> http://bit.ly/rdCe1S
My recent post Walk your broken heart through that door…
No I haven't, I'll have to go check it out.
thanxs
I looove Maroon 5. I'd pick "Secret" over "Sweetest Goodbye" though…and "Kiwi" is just
*takes notes and hops on bit-torrent*
And this my fellow Men-folk is how you define winnning… Let someone else do all the work, and you reap the benefits…
Y'all gon make me get someone pregnant…
Philistines! 66 comments, and not one Luther Vandross song?
You know I never could get down with Lutha. *shrug*
He didn't do it for me.
Prince ALL DAY THO!!!!
Just when you were becoming my e-crush.
I was jamming to "if only for one night" yesterday. I love Big Lutha
My recent post I may be young in age…
Reecie, I'd knew you'd have my back!
YES…. Especially when he says "I won't tell a soul… no one has to know…" YES!!!!
Awwww… Sorry booboo.
I love Luther's "You are My Lady" but when he came out with "Dance with My Father" I couldn't listen to him the same way anymore. Sorry Hugh.
See Luther would have been the one if I were thinking wedding fist dance songs.
Speaking of Scarface, "High Notes" is a funny one too.
RKells – TP2
had about 5hrs of insane 4play to this on repeat – shawty was a wrap
5 hours? Dang!
It was the greatest night of sex I've ever had without actually having sex..lol
*JawDrop*
Mannnn Listen….
Sir you are definitely ringworthy *Proposes like Chrissy*
Note to self: Don't read threads on cuffing when you're single and lonely as a mofo, LOL.
*record screech* wayment. without actually having sex? hmmmmmmm!!!
My recent post I may be young in age…
We were suppose to have sex, but when never got past the 4play..it was so great
Reecie, after that much foreplay, you know he nutted real quick. He just ain’t want to admit that to us so he just claiming great foreplay…
hahaaaaa Krystll got jokie jokes lol…i prob nutted a good 4 times during so i was good and crazy exhausted
You know I had to get you back for saying my hubby was creeping with bonequisha!
Hahaaaa true dat…u have a good memory
hahaha. I wasn't gonna say nuthin, LOL
My recent post Walk your broken heart through that door…
the greatest sex
like a real freak
I mean ( i don't mean it)
strip for you…
man listen! classic album and I'll bump every Kells album pre Tp3 until the end of time…
My recent post I may be young in age…
Thing is I had no real clue about that album..shawty brought it ova..im thinkin im not sexin to no damn music..lol needless to say that album ran on repeat for 5 damn hours…
12 play is still the ish too!
R Kelly will never top 12 Play.
Agreed … didn't dig Ready, but then again i'm not a big fan of him anyways and Brown Sugar >>> Voodoo
"Brown Sugar >>> Voodoo"
I'm glad you said this so I wouldn't have to, LOL. Higher, Me & those dreamin eyes of mine, When we get by, Lady…WHAT!!!!!!!!!!! No comparison. And I say that while LOVING his cover of the Ohio Players, "Heaven Must Be Like This"….
Great Post!! My list is below (a couple of retro songs and what is in my playlist right now)
"All the way around"- Marvin Gaye
"Overjoyed" (Rendition)- Grover Washington Jr. feat. Freddy Cole
"Love in Time"- Esperanza Spalding
"I Wanna to Know"- The Foreign Exchange
"Beauty"- Jose James (Probably one of the best albums I heard this year)
"Desire"- Jose James
"Like Crazy" (Live) – Jill Scott (Jilly is on another level when you see her perform live)
"Heaven"- Kem
"Love Ballard"- LTD
But the theme song and video for cuffin' season should be "Let's Chill"- Guy: http://youtu.be/3Wj8Yxa309E
Love Ballad by LTD is one of the top five best slow songs ever, IMHO.
Agreed and its also one of my top 10 favorite songs of all time. You can actually feel what Jeffery Osbourne's was feeling when he sings it. lol.
"Overjoyed" (Rendition)- Grover Washington Jr. feat. Freddy Cole – this is an instant soaker LOL
I actually like this rendition better than Stevie's original b/c I think Freddy gives it a different meaning (describes perfectly how you feel about someone you're in a relationship with) compared to Stevie's original upbeat tempo (he was singing about the birth of his daughter).
Foreign Exchange. You get a high five and some e-panties for that one.
My recent post Weave-Lapse
Thank you very much. lol. I have been a Little Brother and Phonte (NC based) since my undergrad days in Greensboro, NC. lol. But the FE albums currently in my playlist (Dear Friends: An Evening With The Foreign Exchange and Authenticity) shows the musical genius of Phonte and Nicolay.
Actually I already played that "All The Way Around" a few times today … Dope. and good look on that LTD. Jose James is definitely slept on!!!
If I didn't watch Our Family Wedding with my sister, I wouldn't found out who he was. lol. To say that movie was ok, the soundtrack for it was pretty spot on. Jose James is really slept on in the US (he's from NY but is signed to a UK record company).
Posting from my phone, hope this goes through
Let’s Get It On- Marvin Gaye (the entire album)
We Should Be Making Love -Trey Songz
Sade- Cheirsh The Day
Sweetest Thing- Lauryn Hill
Beauty- Dru Hill
Feenin- Jodeci
Speechless- Beyonce
In A Sentimental Mood- Duke Ellington and John Coltrane
Close Your Eyes- Peaches and Herb
Don’t Disturb This Groove -(I forget the group)
" Beauty " is the sheeeeit
Dru Hill had joints for real. They were on their way to being the new and not so crazy Jodeci… till they all went crazy.
My recent post That Certain Something “Watch The Throne” is Missing
112 is my fave R&B guy group post Jodeci era but I rocks heavy with the Dru too, esp that first two CDs…
My recent post I may be young in age…
And then Sisqo dropped his debut solo album "Unleash the Dragon" and FINISHED them.
LOL
Loved that Album
Son, that's the worst part about the whole thing… not only did his solo situation flop but it flopped so miserably that it ruined the whole group.
My recent post That Certain Something “Watch The Throne” is Missing
Basically!!
I was waiting for them and Jodeci to make a comeback.. *sigh*
Oh Well –Trey Songz it is.
That Enter the Dru album was them at their best..I still blast that in the car
5 Steps…
My recent post That Certain Something “Watch The Throne” is Missing
What is with the hate for the Thong Song?
You ain't lying. Beauty was probably one of the best songs of the late 90s. lol. Surprised the hell out of me when Sisqo came out with the "Thong Song" after that. lol.
Beauty was the truth, oh the days when blatant hating was kinda veiled now its straight up f*** that ninja that u love so bad
"Don't Disturb This Groove -(I forget the group) "
The System
I got this on my Ipod
OK GirlSixx, you are my e-crush again with Don't Disturb This Groove.
But yo, remember when Jodeci was on Martin, and Martin came out and interrupted their show… top 5 all time funniest Martin Moment… son came out with the Jodeci bop walk and everything…
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7pC4YIiZDP4
My recent post That Certain Something “Watch The Throne” is Missing
Absolute classic! Especially the "Ooooh Yeah" batttle between Martin and K-Ci.
You need some Maxwell up in thurrrr. Not to have Urban Hang Suite is a travesty. …i mean, have you not heard him whisper "turn over baby" in the break in Lonley's The Only Company??? Cuffing 101.
You guys need a Spotify Account so you can really create and share playlists. Let me know if you need an invite.
My recent post Jesse Boykins III in London photos by Neil Raja
Most of the music you guys listed were great, but I could never get into the music like that. The only music to my ears I needed was her gasping for breath, and……you can figure the rest out. (I don't want to get graphic) lol
"gasping for breath"… nice
You have my permission to get graphic Paul.
All John Legend everything…
Definitely some Raphael Saadiq, Ray Charles & Stevie Wonder
Lots of Sade & Melody Gardot…their music is great for those cold winter months.
For the music snobs & those with sophisticated musical taste: Melody Gardot is on point…very intimate & dreamy with a splash of soul & jazz– definitely takes you to another reality. A few noteable songs are "Goodnite", "If the stars were mine" & "Baby I'm a fool"
(and Most, I love that Mariah Carey/Dru-Hill "Beautiful Ones" remake!).
My recent post MikasThoughts: Is it 5pm yet?
Outside of that TP2, I can say I have a good sex songs BUT my love song list looks a lil like this:
Issac hayes – the look of love – extended version
Jodeci – you give good love
Lenny Kravitz – I belong to you
Debarge – all this love
E. Badu – Orange moon, in love wit you
Dru Hill – What are we gonna do, you are everything
Stevie wonder – you and I
Luther – Since I lost my baby
OJays – Wildflower (live version)
Tony Toni Tone – Lay your head on my pillow, anniversary
John Legend – Again
John Legend – Again … Easily my favorite joint by him and those to Badu tracks are on my Favorite Badu tracks mix
Stevie Wonder: You and I… Awesome! on par with "I love every little thing about you" and "I believe"
My recent post I’ve been loving you too long
Imma hardcore stevie junkie.." I believe " is the joint! "Another Star " is probably my favorite song for so many reason..the arrangement alone is incredible
I honestly feel that Stevie and I have a relationship that no one else can understand. He's the first man in my life, lol. There is nothing like Never Dreamed You Leave in Summer, Seems so Long, Superwoman (into Where were you when I needed you (my absolute FAVORITE)), Girl Blue {Clearly Music of my Mind is the best album}. Also included in the mix: Sunshine in their eyes and Do I Do…
Stevie is a genius…
Close second? Donny Hathaway… OMG I love that man! Misty, Thank you Master, Take a love song. Pure Genius
So… Do you like James Morrison?
My recent post I’ve been loving you too long
Now you talkin..Superwoman has got to be the greatest song ever..its REAL music! my close second would have to be Issac Hayes, dude is a master arranger..the extended version of "the look of love"did it for me
James Morrison? i gotta go check it out, never really heard of him
yes, yes, yes: start with If you don't wanna love me, dream on Hayley, Precious love, You give me something, Wonderful World
Then move to Emily King (album EP 7 is the best). Listen to Down, Radio, Georgia. Switch to East Side Story listen to U & I, Never be lonely, Ride with me
And simply enjoy!
My recent post Hear My Call
Indeed. Stevie went off with that.
oh I think "Let's Chill" by Wale & Lloyd might be my fave song right now that I think kinda sets the tone for cuffin season…
My recent post I may be young in age…
I am very picky with my Hip Hop love songs. Too often they sound like cheesy attempts to get radio spins. No real feeling behind them, just looking to appeal to a female fan base more likely to buy records
*CHeeKZ stop preaching*
But Wale does them right. Also I like Fat Joe's All I need (you can tell its about his wife)
Fabolous – make you better
Roots – U got me
Reflection Eternal – Love Language
and the before mention: the light, I want you, and break you off
I have a whole hip hop love song playlist. and its full of Wale and Fabolous
Luda does his thing too…
My recent post Walk your broken heart through that door…
you might have to hook me up with that tracklisting.
Passive Agress-Her x Wale gets 2 thumbs up from me.
My recent post Currently On Repeat
You know there's gonna be some chexin music in those albums since 5 of the 8 covers featured topless folks, lol
Other songs that make my tingly in my lady parts…
Neyo's – "Say Yes"
Jill Scott – "Whatever"
Eric Benet – "Just My Way"
Neyo's Mirror, same type of hotness as Say Yes
Let's play some more "Name that Lyric"
"Minor G is the chord of pleasure
It will be played 11 measures…"
Don't cheat and google it!
My recent post That Certain Something “Watch The Throne” is Missing
I don’t know the song title, but its Prince! I wont google and cheat but I don’t think anything …and I do mean ANYTHING that Prince makes is cuffing season music. Its Grown Up, Incredulous, Raw, Sex you have to be past the 9 month rule to even break out Prince, and cuffing season is only for 5 months Im sorry lol. You pull that out for your One Nighter, or your Old Timer (Established Relationship) nothing in between. You gotta know what you doing when you pull Prince out at all times.
"Its Grown Up, Incredulous, Raw, Sex you have to be past the 9 month rule to even break out Prince, and cuffing season is only for 5 months Im sorry lol."
"Future Baby Mama" Prince
Would that fall under Cuffing Season? ;o)
Nope, Its to easy to be confused with longevity. This one line right hear envokes a spirit of Projection
“To build a house together,tthe thing that matters more, iis under the floor a strong foundation that lasts forever more”
Play it on the first date she aleast knows you wanna put it down tonight and she’s second guessing the expiration on that condom she has in her purse or wondering how fresh the guys box is…lol. Im real simple when it comes to sexual relations. Anyone you are willing to have sex with you have the “potential” to be/make a baby momma cause condoms/ birth control is NOT 100%. So you take that risk even with a one nighter! So basically anyone you hit can be a baby momma! And she should Realize that potential even with a one night stand! (Maury, Maury, Maury…but I digress) However, play it anywhere between date #2 and month 8 and she has the” potential” to forecast or Project that ur tellng her you wanna have a family and “potential” to get married (to her). Stupid, I know, but I have known far too many cases where a “cuffing” participant thinks shes the “girlfriend” or better yet” wifey material”lmbo. Dare I say again, cuffing season only last about 5 months. So you need songs that are straightforward enough to set the mood for a moment… not for a lifetime. Lmbo
I was reticent to put a list together, because I could easily do a list of 150 songs, so here is a list. This list is for background music and setting a mood. This list is for quiet conversation or lovemaking, not fcuking.
Chante Moore – Precious
Minnie Riperton – Inside Me

Rose Royce – I Wanna Get Next To You

After 7 – Ready or Not
Shalamar – This Is For the Lover In You

Maxwell – Til The Cops Come Knockin'
