Artist: Album: Work This! Part 1 Track:
Other Tags: Delicious

For my Secret Santa exchange at work, I was given a bag full of used trashy pop/techno/dance CDs. Great gift.

Among the Britney Spears and Spice Girls CDs was this gem: Pure Sugar's self-titled debut album.

A little background on the group: They came out with their first album in 1998. Pure Sugar sets itself apart from the rest of the dance music from this era by using "live" vocals and drums. The vocals aren't pitch-corrected. The drums aren't looped. It's still a dance album, but it sounds a lot more human.

There was an interesting "connection" between Mae West and Jennifer Star, Pure Sugar's singer. When she was a little girl, a psychic told Jennifer that both she and Mae West were struggling actresses in Paris in a past life. Unknowingly, years later, Jennifer moved into the apartment Mae West lived in for the last 40 years of her life. All of a sudden, things started working for Jennifer. She formed Pure Sugar, signed with Geffen, and came out with her first album, all within ten months of signing the lease.

In the first and last article written about Jennifer and Pure Sugar, she said that she was moving out of the apartment that brought her so much success. And that was the last we heard about Jennifer Starr. Coincidence? Probably.

I'm unsure of what happened to Jennifer. I haven't found anything about her on the web. The DJs in the group did go on to work on other projects. But, where's Jennifer? I have no idea.

Here's a video of "Delicious," the biggest hit from the album.

Artist: Album: Track:

I heard this song for the first time a couple weeks ago. But it came out back in 2002.

I chose "Make You Feel That Way" as my January Song of the Month in another music community I belong to. January was a surprisingly good month. A lot of positive things happened. There was that week of 60+ degree weather here, I got a new job, came across some extra cash.

It was a month full of a few good days, and "Make You Feel That Way" is just a really chill song that celebrates the good days.

And again a YouTube link because Universal doesn't like to share its videos and I don't have this on my computer right now: www.youtube.com/watch?v=NH2bqTc88ns

Hmm. Sadly the "user has removed the video". But I'm gonna watch out for this. Just re-discovered Blackalicious, have the "alphabet aerobcis" on a compilation and that's just ill. He's sometimes working togehter with General Elektriks, which is also hell good. Will write a post on them soon.

Artist: Album: The Ultimate Collection Track:

I've been listening to this song on and off today. It's just an awesome, awesome song. Me and Mary Jane don't hang out, but even I can appreciate how awesome this song is.

Did I mention it's awesome?

Unfortunately I don't have an embed link. You can listen to it here at YouTube: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AhreCLlcq3Q

I actually haven't listened to a lot of Rick myself. I found this album in my dad's collection a few years back. The album was "Come Get It." It was a few years before his Superfreak days.
