SUNDAY, 11\/27 -> I remember going on a long field trip in the 4th grade and this girl I had a crush on was playing something amazing called What’s The 411 on the back of the bus.\u00c2\u00a0 I’m sure her being a fly 5th grader didn’t hurt, but I’d like to think my young ears had exceptional taste way back then and realized Mary J Blige was a truly great artist (I had just come off a year of listening to SWV and TLC’s debuts, DJ Jazzy Jeff & The Fresh Prince – Homebase and Kriss Kross – Totally Krossed Out, so you tell me).<\/p>\n

Fast forward to 2011 and Mary’s about to drop her tenth album, still the queen of everything soul and hip hop and we’re celebrating her legacy at Connected<\/a> w\/DJ Low Key<\/a> at the Hai Bar (32nd & Lowell<\/a> in the Highlands).\u00c2\u00a0 We’ll be rocking all the best Mary songs, b-sides, guest features, rarities and most importantly, the remixes that were her calling card in the 90s and of course, featuring food and drinks on happy hour from 8:30-11:30pm.\u00c2\u00a0 No cover, facebook.com\/ConnectedByMusic<\/a> and ConnectedMusic.Tumblr.com<\/a> for more on the night.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
