Music Monday

Last night, I ended an already incredible weekend by attending a Matisyahu concert at the Belly Up Tavern in Solana Beach. This is one of my favorite San Diego venues because of its acoustics and excellent location.

Solana Beach is a beautiful quaint city on the coast, and the Belly Up Tavern is just two blocks from the beach. I highly recommend having dinner and perhaps a pre-game cocktail at a nearby restaurant before hitting a live show. 

Matisyahu, although far from the traditionally clad Hasidic Jewish performer I had long envisioned, put on a stellar show. His vocal range and quick-spitted lyrics left me buzzing. My hands flew skyward as I felt the powerful surge of reggae vibes penetrate the air. 

Matisyahu, with his grey hair, white pants, and funky dance moves, left me smiling and deeply satisfied. Many thanks to him for a great performance!

Sasha Go Hard

We have been lucky enough to witness a reemergence of phenomenal female rappers lately. We've got range from Cardi & Meg, to Noname & Rhapsody, to Renni Rucci & LightskinKeisha, just to name a few. But the girls are most certainly out here and we LOVE to see it. I would like to take a moment to appreciate Sasha Go Hard. This Detroit-based gem is a real one, as explained on her 2018 "No Problems" album . I want her to be great. I love her story, her voice (& accent), and her music. Sasha Go Hard tells the all-too-familiar plight of a young Black woman with a daughter to mold. "Done Being Nice" & "Shake" are two of her most popular singles and my personal favorites. These tracks are found on her second album of 2018, "Make America Ratchet Again", which is obviously an amazing title, and the anthem this nation actually deserves.  "The Porch" on MARA is a perfect song, descriptive of hood life and nostalgia.
