Tryin to make a mix for that special someone (in an attempt at romance that will prolly prove fruitless in the long run).Girl is Carribean so I will go heavy on the lover's rock. Though I am far from an expert on this genre (Kevin? Ross?)Plus she likes hip-hop.And of course I'm gonna lace it with some Motown.Plaese to help a helpless romantic hommie in this endeavor.Female opinions welcome.

Chaka Khan - Sweet Thing
Tho bill is unfuckwitable, i would suggest betty wrights version- much less sombre but still full of soul. I've had it go down pretty well.
How am I supposed to make a Valentine's mix without some input from the (admittedly few) ladies up in here?!
Step y'all games up!! All you folls should be making mixes for your womans so let's hear some more suggestions....
Some of these record doods rock drag....
all looking for the rare lingeries when they can't find wax..
I am sure they know the best joints to get you a hummer.
My money is on a best of Sade mix with the powermoves on blends.
But you know... I actually like girls and Sade.

When I’m alone in my room sometimes I stare at the wall
And in the back of my mind I hear my conscience call
Telling me I need a girl who’s as sweet as a dove
For the first time in my life, I see I need love..
- spidey
Weldon Irvine-I love you
Good luck with the lady
he went there.
a) copy track-for-track what Ross Hogg is doing
or
b) don't go there...
For real though IMO you should play songs that you like hommie. Songs that mean something to you, and that you think she might dig. That's what is gonna impress this girl is your shit, not the shit that you got from an internet message board...
my 2.
I'm saying.
Might wanna get to know her a little better before taking it to the croutons-on-the-futon level...
Yeah, just give her a CDR of this--add some "hand drawn" cover art and try to pass it off as your own.
anything by Ralfi Pagan, Derrick harriott, John holt, chi-lites, Dramatics, Spinners, Stylistics, ballads, natural four, Blue magic
