Friday Favecast

GRAMMYS, Mary and More

In this edition we have so much to celebrate. In addition to my “official” return, the GRAMMY nominees have been announced and the countdown to music’s biggest night has begun! We have some of the rap / hip-hop nominees on deck like Mos Def and Common along with other prolific MCs to tantalize your ears and keep your head noddin’ long after the song has ended. SoulBounce has dropped the Men Love Mary: A Tribute to My Life mixtape and I have some gems from Slakah the Beatchild, Jesse Boykins III and Eric Roberson — all who showed love for the Queen of Hip Hop Soul, Mary J. Blige. Be sure to add the free digital download to your collection!

The health update is just real talk about all the upcoming holiday eating we’re all going to be doing over the next few weeks and Will Dawson is back with the Friday 5ives and he’s gonna show you how you can get your GRAMMY on. . .NEXT YEAR You don’t wanna miss this — don’t wait, DOWNLOAD TODAY!
