ThruMyEars

I am a music lover. Not in the stereotypical sense that everyone is nowadays, but a true music appreciator. I plan to show you this, if you will listen, through my ears...

Church

You ever witness a congregation get caught up in the words of God through gospel music?

It’s one of the most beautiful things I have ever witnessed from when I was a young kid

It never fails to leave me in awe. 

Back at my old church, when the choir was especially on point, people would stand up and raise their hands to the ceiling with so much emotion on their face and I would just sit there in amazement and watch them. 

It was amazing to see how the music touched and moved them

Reminded them of how their savior had redeemed them and saved them from some of the darkest moments of their lives

How, even now, no matter what it was that they were going through, they had someone to lean on and get them through the storm.

It was always in these moments

where I have ever really felt like I sensed His presence

It was always in the music

where I have truly understood and known without a doubt that He will be there for me if I ever chose to call on him.

From the very moment her voice hits my ears,

I am enchanted

and as she continues....

I am further enthralled by her words

“I can give you what you need....”

“I can make you feel...”

“I can make you feel alright”

drawing me in like a siren....

‘cause isn’t that what we all want?

To feel alright?

I give you “Make You Feel” by Alina Baraz & Galimatias

I'm in love

and it's not simply because she's from my home city

Her voice is something nice

song is kinda jazzy and soulful R&B

reminds me of some Jasmine Sullivan type stuff

smooth, but deep

takes you back to when the women were angry and heartbroken

hurt and emotional

but strong

If you get what I mean

Not sure that I executed my point clearly. 

Just listen

and maybe then you might understand.

No vibes or moods or feels and all that other stuff I'm on usually

Just something for you to enjoy,

Something to rock with

but of course by someone who I can actually consider a real rapper/artist

Enjoy :)

It's been awhile

I know

been way too distracted and unfocused.

But aaannyyyway,

By now you should know how I feel about today's mainstream music and "artists"

By now you should know I love those who do their own thing

you should know I love different.

I love real

Well here's something different

And I really mean different. So prepare yourself lol

It's Eating Me Alive by AEli

Good music is timeless

It is not limited to one generation

or one type of people

it is respected by many

Here is “I Can’t Go For That (No Can Do)” by Daryl Hall and John Oates

the same guys that brought us “Sara Smile"

enjoy :)

Lately I’ve been stuck on old J. Cole

not that recent J. Cole isn’t good

I love Born Sinner

It’s just that, until my first year in college, when I made friends with someone who was pretty close to being obsessed with J. Cole and with another who, like myself, just liked good music

I didn’t really know too much about J. Cole prior to his 'Work Out' single

Eventually I found myself downloading Friday Night Lights and The Warm Up and hearing his tunes as they popped up on my iPhone through shuffle.

I fell in love

His music is so real

He makes you fall into his narratives and get to know him and his personal thoughts and struggles

He’s becomes human, relatable

A real person who’s been through life like so many others

Here’s 2Face by J. Cole on his Friday Night Lights Album

I've quoted him before and I will again;

"The function of music is to release us from the tyranny of conscious thought"

Wise words from Thomas Beecham…

Sometimes it really sucks to be inside my head

to think all that I do

and not be able to escape from it

Music allows to run away from myself
