Flashback Friday: Ne-Yo and Faith Evans

Well folks, this is a special day. If you’ve been riding with me all month – and I’m sure you have – you know Soul In Stereo has been participating in #BlogLikeCrazy, an initiative started by the wife over on her blog, The Writeous Babe Project. Bloggers all over the nation committed to blogging every single day in the month of November. It forced writers to come up with cool new ways to deliver content and strengthened the community of bloggers across the Interwebs. I’d say it was a pretty successful experiment.

This Flashback Friday marks Blog #30 for the month and your boy is exhausted. But here’s some music to celebrate.

CJ Harris shares one of his favorites.

Ne-Yo, Because of You (2007)

CJ said: “This is my favorite album from Ne-Yo. I can actually listen to this CD without skipping a track. The album really showed off Ne-Yo’s skills as a vocalist.”

“Sex With My Ex”
“Addicted”

Edward remains faithful.

Faith Evans, Keep the Faith (1998)

Edd said: “I’m such a music nerd but so are my friends, which is why I love ’em. A couple of weeks ago one of my friends texted me a pic of a bag of caramel Hershey Kisses, an inside joke referring to the song “Caramel Kisses” from this album. Admittedly, I didn’t show this album a lot of love in 1998 because it didn’t measure up to Faith’s spectacular debut. Looking back, it was an extremely strong set.”
