  • what a great way to use an oldie beat..the escorts- look over your shoulder...both great songs =]

  • We played this at our family reuion this year. Grandparents, great grandparents, uncles aunties, cousins and friends!!!! Couldn't be better. If you have family members and you really don't get to see them. MAKE TIME NO ONE IS PROMISED TOMARROW!!!!!!!! Soul food Sunday's, or whatever the occassion. Everyone need to spend time with their family. Don't let a FUNERAL BE THE REASON and be the only time everyone get together!!!!!!

  • I'm gonna be playin this all day long!! Happy Labor day!!!!!!

  • here's the black family reunion: uncle on the bbq, kids running around having fun, the eldest of the family at the head of the table, the trifling cousin, the cousin thats married to a fine ass man/woman that nobody pictured them with, the black sheep thats just laid back and to themselves, the successful 6-figure or more cousin, and the one taking life step by step working towards a goal. theres A LOT more I can name, but I've already said too damn much. lol

  • Tender Tune!

  • Beautiful twist on an ol' skoo cut. Search the Escorts "Look over your Shoulder." They recorded this cut while in prison in the 70's. Jill only used the instrumentals of the track and did a helluva of a job but don't ever think that when you hear today's music it's brand spankin new. Show love n give props to the ol skoo.

We are all the same, always got the uncle who always does the bbq, someone always expecting a baby, loadsa good food and some bad food you gotta eat so you ain't being rude, the drunk, kids running around acting crazy, always someone doing something trifling with their life lol! All of this of course, with some good music in the background. I love it.

  • or someone holding a grudge/this close to starting a fight. Then of course, comes the fight lol
