I love music. I mainly prefer Reggae out of all. My next best is souls music.I will provide a list of ten of my 'desert island' albums along with link to the artists.If I should be 'stranded' anywhere, I would love to have the following Reggae albums with me. Rebulution by Tanya Stephens- http://music.aol.com/album/rebulution/1044295; In the Streets to Africa by Richie Spice-http:/shop.mixtapekings.com/richie_spice_s/206.htm,and From Kingston to King of the Dancehall: A Collection of Dancehall Favorites by Beenie Man -http://www.mtv.com/music/artist/beenie_man/albums.jhtml?albumId=862348. These albums help me to keep close to my roots. Being that I am from Jamaica, I love these artistes and when I listen to their music I can dance and just be free! These albums also have songs with some comical content, which when I listen I can laugh and just forget about some of my problems. One of our mostly used 'motto' in Jamaica is ' no problem.' The album by Richie Spice has many songs which I listen to oftentimes just to meditate. This artist composes many 'deep' songs which help me to connect with my inner self sometimes.Tanya Stephens' album is about 'rude girl' and 'hardcore' loving. She can very graphic in her songs , and I love it! Wherever I listen to these Reggae albums I can feel at home and be relaxed.My next 'desert island' album is Hero by Kirk Franklin-http://www.amazon.com/Hero-Kirk-Franklin/dp/B000AOJ9XA/ref=pd_sim_m_4.I am very much aware that there is a supreme being and so I like to listen to this album as it helps to keeps me on my spiritual side. When I listen to this album I just sing along and be calm. I usually listen to this album on Sunday mornings or in times when I am feeling revengeful or in mourning.Listening to this album,reminds to forgive and to be hopeful.
My other 'desert island' albums are The Greatest Hits by Whitney Houston-www.whitneyhouston.com, Growing Pains by Mary J. Blige- www.mjblige.com, If I Ain't Got You by Alicia Keys-www.starpulse.som/Music/Keys,_Alicia, Get Lifted by John Legend- www.johnlegend.com.,When a Woman Loves by Patti Labelle-www.imdb.com/name/nm0479458 and Marvin Gaye's Greatest Hits by Marvin Gaye-www.marvingayepage.net. When I listen to these albums they give me a sense of love and keep adrenaline flowing as I continue to think about my other half ( my husband). These albums help to get us in the 'mood' and help me to get our adult side of life on the continuos side.These albums I listen to also give me 'peace of mind.' These albums help to relax and also to meditate.
Go ahead and check these out and see how well they will make you feel! Yes, seriously, break away a little from the Beyonce, Rhianna, Lil Wayne, Rock and such .... Try some Reggae! Dance your legs to life!
