YOU BELIEVE IN THINGS THAT YOU DON'T UNDERSTAND...(Video*)

Happy Monday, everyone! It's a new week, the sun is shining and I'm feeling G-O-O-D!

This is kind of a random post, but this song is a classic. Stevie Wonder is the truth and this performance took place on Sesame Street so it's only right that I show it some love, hahaha.

The kids chillin in the background, the band smoothly killing it and Stevie going IN on the keys...c'mon man. You don't see performances like this anymore (unless you search through Youtube.com)

Enjoy!!

RESPECT THE ARCHITECT: STEVIE WONDER

Today is the 59th "Born Day" of musical genius, Stevie Wonder. I have many childhood memories of waking up to my mother singing along with Stevie's records on Saturday mornings and me watching in awe, as his bead-clad head would sway back and forth during various Grammy performances.

The man has been creating beautiful music, since he was a child and his catalog is beyond serious. His influence can be witnessed through some of our generations most gifted musicians. Below are a few of his classic songs that have been sampled by respected hip hop artists. Enjoy and always remember to Respect The Architect.
