Currently reading, watching, and listening 🫶

6/11 Edited to

... Read moreLately, I've found that combining different media forms enriches my daily routine and sparks creativity. For reading, 'Yesteryear' by Caro Claire Burke really resonated with me—it offers a fresh perspective on traditional values with a surreal touch, perfectly fitting the 'trad wife' theme in a contemporary way. When it comes to watching shows, 'Only Murders in the Building' on Hulu is a masterclass in blending humor, mystery, and suspense. It keeps me guessing while also delivering great character development. On Netflix, 'Formula 1: Drive to Survive' gives an exhilarating, behind-the-scenes look at the fast-paced world of motor racing. Both series have a knack for keeping me fully engaged and on my toes. For music, I've been diving back into the classics and roots of hip-hop with artists like Ja Rule, Fat Joe, and Jadakiss. Rediscovering these legends feels like reconnecting with a foundational part of my musical identity. I also enjoy mixing in some Michael Jackson to add a timeless vibe to my playlist. Sharing my current favorites has not only helped me stay connected with communities like the #blackbookworm but also encouraged me to explore diverse content more intentionally. Whether you’re looking for book suggestions, engaging shows, or a throwback music vibe, these picks might just become your new favorites too.
