You have probably noticed that I haven’t posted one of these for a while. To be honest, nothing has really inspired me. It’s been a long time since I’ve listened to a record front to back and felt moved by it. This morning while I was working out I listened to the entire album. It’s evident that this month’s music to our ears Scorpion by Drake has inspired everyone in less than 24-hours. Side A or side B, there is something for everyone, even the non-believers. Scorpion has just been added to the soundtrack of your life.
It’s poetic, emotional, raw and insightful, all the elements that you look for in music. The power of music to make us look beyond what we think we know and find truth at the drop of a beat. I am not going to tell you what to listen to or give you a coles notes on lyrics. I think it’s time to get back to really listening to music and feeling what’s meant to be felt in that moment. Don’t get lost in the narratives of what someone else thinks they know, listen to it, take it in and get inspired.
