PLAYLIST ANYONE?
As a producer, I create lots of playlists.
This one I mainly went from memory, these are songs lots of us listen to depending on what kind of Black men you're around etc ..
TRIGGER WARNING: I don't judge artists on their sex or criminal lives so I definitely WILL be posting some so called cancelled music makers from time to time.
Our culture of Hip Hop is about our humanity not our perfection.
From the beginning, Black men have always been proud to acknowledge our equals!
These few songs are worth a listen if you have time...link to my YouTube can be found on my blog: www.mercandfriends.com
