Oh Sherry! Look! Other women write to each other, with love and thoughts and friendship. Awesome.
UPDATED 10/13/8: Two other women take pictures for each other. Beautiful pictures, sometimes.
I haven't made that mix for you because wanting to do a good job of it, with segues and matching up beats and making a cover has stopped me. But I do think of song lists for you (and not just hip-hop). I'll see if I can round that up tonight, but it'll start with Fatlip. Don't worry about the videos; I never watch them. But at least I can recommend some stuff.
Pretty:
What's Up, Fatlip? - Fatlip. High school friend Teddy introduced me to this song.
Gone 'til November - Wyclef. The seven-year ex and I were long-distance for five and a half of those years. I used to tell him this was our song.
Request Line - Black Eyed Peas. BEP used to be really good.
Hey Mama - Kanye West. This wasn't the popular song on Late Registration, but I always loved it.
