The video of the day is from a Legend in the music industry who is still holding it down. Not only is she a trendsetter but she can dance her ass off like no other.


Who can forget when Jody Watley danced across our television screens on the iconic television show Soul Train, became a member of Shalamar and then kicked the preverbial door down with her legendary solo career.

From her mega hit "Real Love" and our personal favorite "Everything", Ms. Watley actually set the pace for those female artists coming after her to be free to express themselves and maintain integrity in their music career. She is still writing and performing as well as dropping nuggets of wisdom via her twitter page www.twitter.com/jodywatley

Check out one of my favorite joints "Friends" featuring Eric B. & Rakim and be sure and listen to the words  - Speaks Volumes!!!
