Over the weekend, I was watching Blue’s Clues with my kiddos and I saw a purple dinosaur and heard a familiar voice. I thought to myself that sounds like H.E.R., the amazing singer songwriter. Her voice is distinct, sultry, and smooth enough to be identified and not mistaken. I did some research as found out yes, it is H.E.R. H.E.R. was making her animation and acting debut on Nickelodeon, on a Blue’s Clues episode entitled Blue’s Clues & You! H.E.R. plays a Tyrannosaurus rex that is the first female singer, songwriter, producer, dancer. actress of prehistoric times. This was a really fun and cool episode to watch. You can watch some of it for yourself here. https://youtu.be/4ZyWD1qTmRo Photo and media credits: Nickelodeon
Jay-Z made his way back to the Twitterverse yesterday to agree with Questlove that he still feels like he could have done better with his Volume 1 - In My Lifetime album. The album was released on November of 1997 and had mainstream hits such as Sunshine, Streets Is Watching, and The City is Mine (featuring BlackStreet). How do you feel about Volume 1 from Jay-Z? Was it a solid album for you? What are your favorite tracks? Which tracks do you dislike? Photo Credits: Twitter and Amazon.com
