90's Flashback: La India, 'Lover Who Rocks You'

 

By Doshka Harvey
Here's a 90's flashback for ya.  For all you freestyle lovers.  

Remember when La India use to sing in English?  Her first album Breaking Night came out in 1990.  Here's one of her rare jams in English from the beginning of her musical career, "Lover Who Rocks You (All Night)."  Look at her, she was a mere kid.  Check out her funky style...wicked!

This is such a freestyle powerhouse classic. This is from way before she became such a great salsera.  She's amazing whether she's belting one out in English or Spanish.  La chica tiene mucho talento. The lady is way talented.

Go Home Irene! Yeah Irene, Step Off!

 

By Doshka Harvey

With hurricane "Irene" on its way to NYC I felt the need to share some music fitting for the occasion   Hurricanes are not a positive, but I'm keeping a positive outlook that this too shall pass and all will be okay.

So listen up "Irene," you won't get the best of me or us New Yorkers. Let's "talk like lovers do," but to that I add this twist, when we are done, get to steppin' and don't come back.  You're just not my type babe!

Still A Classic: Janet Jackson's 'You Want This'

 

By Doshka Harvey

Janet Jackson's song "You Want This," from her fifth studio album janet., is still such an awesome song to listen to.  Why doesn't music on the radio sound this good anymore?  

The video is so simple, yet entertaining to watch.  Girls out having fun in the sun and flirting with boys.  I must say, however, that I'm glad women no longer dress in the manly fashions being sported by a few of the ladies here -- please let's definitely keep that style forever back in the 90's. 

On another note, look how ridiculously toned Janet's abs are.  Gotta love it!  Gotta love Janet!
