Music with Meaning....

There's nothing greater than seeing thousands of people getting together to enjoy great music. As my Dora and I arrived to the Amphitheater, we saw tons of people bringing in their coolers, lawn chairs and comfortably dressed to enjoy the Silk, 112 and Jagged Edge Concert. 

Im not big on outdoor concerts( although I do attend them) but this one was quite dope I must say. We arrived in our VIP area and instantly began to mingle ( I mean we ARE the founders of Women Who Network, that's what we do). We enjoyed a few glasses of nicely chilled wine, the pre-show( ok, here's my truth, the first act was Pastor Troy. While in the salon a few years back, my stylist was talking about Pastor Troy. I naively asked, "Where's his church".. She responded, " Neka, he's a rapper". We laughed for hours! Lol), a McDonald's contest and then the show began. 

The first group Silk, was not a fave growing up but a was able to Rock to a few of their songs.. 

My all time fave guy group( aside from New Edition, Jodeci, BBD &New Kids on the Block to name a few) 112 was the second act.. I was in absolute heaven. Hearing them live took me back to high school and my early 20s. Certain songs,( Peaches & Cream, Cupid, You Already Know, I can't Believe) I remembered exactly where I was and what was going on in my life. Music of the 90's had meaning. When you dated, it meant something. If you questioned your relationships and your boyfriend, the right song made it ok.. Gosh I love 112. The kicker though, I grew up listening to them but we're all the same age. Lol

Lastly was Jagged Edge. Another fave. My sister always reminded me how much my daughter's father looked like Brandon. My all time fave song will always be, " I Promise".. Their songs also remind me of certain events of my young adult life. 

Well Atlanta, thanks for a great night of music with some of the most vocally blessed men of the world.. A great night, not a dime spent ( thanks Sandy) and videos that will last as long as I have this iPhone 6.. 

My loves, I challenge you to play some good music and let it take you away.. I'm pulling out some of my 112 and Jagged Edge today and I'm going to dance and sing my life away!! 

Signed, 

Music is Life
