Episode 675 🎙️🌙

This episode, I’m diving into Michael Jackson’s “The Lady in My Life” and some of the fascinating stories behind how this unforgettable song came together.

One detail that really stood out to me was Michael recording in complete darkness. Quincy Jones wanted him to dig deeper emotionally, and Michael found that intimacy by drawing the curtains, turning off the lights, and recording in total darkness.

And honestly, I get it.

There’s something about turning off the lights, closing your eyes, and listening to this song that makes you feel like Michael’s soul is emerging from the pitch darkness. 🖤🎶

That’s the kind of music history and storytelling I love bringing to Speak Yo Mind Radio.

🎧 Listen to Episode 675 and tell me what you hear when the lights go out.

🕊️ Rest in Power, Freddie Jackson.

Today we lost one of the smoothest voices R&B ever gave us. Harlem-born and gospel-trained, Freddie had a tenor that could make a whole room slow down.

Tonight on Speak Yo Mind Radio we’re honoring him with some of his greatest:

🎶 Rock Me Tonight (For Old Times’ Sake)

🎶 You Are My Lady

🎶 Jam Tonight

King Von 🕊️

Six years later, I’m taking a moment to remember King Von and the impact he made coming out of Chicago. His story, his delivery, and the way he turned his experiences into music made him one of the most talked-about voices of his generation.

From the Crazy Story trilogy to Took Her to the O and the other records that helped shape his catalog, Von had a way of telling stories that pulled you into his world. Whether you agreed with the lifestyle he rapped about or not, his ability to paint pictures through his lyrics was undeniable.

On this anniversary of his passing, I’m choosing to reflect on the music, the moments, and the potential of an artist whose journey was cut short. Chicago has always produced artists with stories to tell, and King Von became a significant part of that story.

Rest in peace, King Von. 🕊️

MzHipHop gives her two cents on the controversial Converse advertisement, the backlash that followed, and why representation and accountability matter. And when it comes to where we spend our money, Black dollars matter. 🖤💰

I said what I said: fuck Converse and Nike as a whole. If we feel disrespected, we have the power to take our dollars elsewhere and support businesses and brands within our own communities.

What do YOU think about the controversy? 👀
