In Rotation - Thursday's Groove (Part I)

Anyone who knows plez... knows the deal. Gotta have my music: gotta be able to tap my foot to it, gotta be able to get a "mini-swerve on" while I'm getting my 'blog on, gotta make me smile, gotta make we wanna sing, gotta make me wanna cry, and it gotta be on The One.

The best thing since sliced bread is the Apple iPod. I won my Mini in a contest at work last year and I've been hooked ever since. I gave my daughter a Shuffle, and my wife sports a Nano that was a gift from a client. At the office, I'm usually plugged into my laptop listening via iTunes. When I'm on the plane - which I do twice a week - I got the Mini poppin' my eclectic blend of R&B, Soul, Hip Hop, Funk, Old School, Neo-soul, and Prince ... with a sprinkling of Pop.

Things are alittle slow in the office, so I thought I'd get my 'blog on with a taste of what's In Rotation. It's Thursday afternoon, so I must be listening to my "50 Least Played Hits" Playlist to hear songs recently purchased from the (iTunes Music Store) and less heard playlists.

I crunch crushed ice as I sip on a glass of ice water and lemon slices. Here's the music flowing out of my iPod onto the dancefloor of my mind:
