Celebrate Good Times

C'mon!

I feel like celebrating heavy right now, mad relieved after my iTunes gave me a scare. Well, I might have deserved it 'cause I apparently deleted an integral file for the program to function properly when I was deleting files off my comp's HD, so I had to reinstall it.

I thought I'd have to reload my library, which wouldn't be THAT bad because I'd be able to reorganize my digital crates, but it's a total pain in the ass. I'm not sayin I have the largest collection by any means - I'm positive the homies Ivan, Eskay, Dart, YN and various others has a comparable if not bigger one (no Ellen Degeneres) - but a little under 30,000 is a bitch to organize.

But alas, my library was salvaged. Praise the Lord, or whoever you choose to worship.

In light of this wonderful moment, I'ma share some new tracks and old gems with y'all. Let's celebrate, Enjoy!
