Sex and Music where do I begin? For a large amount of us there’s a song, that when it plays, we remember a time, place, or even the person that you were with. For each generation there’s a soundtrack of their lives. It is the music that expressed all their emotions. The joys of new love, the agonies of break-up, and the anticipation of the first time with that special someone. I like to express various parts of my sexual appetite through music. I have numerous playlist that allow for the listener (aka me) to engage. Sometimes the songs leave little to the imagination and others well are coy and filled with innuendo. What does the soundtrack your sexual escapades sound like?
If you’re not sure how sex and music go together let me tell you how. R&B music more so than any other genre has a long standing of sexual innuendos in its lyrics. As an adult I realize that the songs I heard in my childhood are so nasty. The Isley Brothers with “Between the Sheets”, Al Green with “Simply Beautiful” or even Minnie Riperton with ” Inside My Love”. Sexual overtones sell albums. Early artist was subtle with the way they used their words. Music in the past last three to four decades is more erotic. Artist no matter their gender now feels comfortable putting pen to paper to express their Sex-Capades, and I can’t help but let my inner freak enjoy, so she can take control.
There are quite a few of us that can remember recording music on a reel to reel. Waiting to catch that right song to create the perfect slow jam reel to play at the party. Are you the slow jam mixtape buying type to bump in your car or boom box? In the digital era are you like me have a playlist on your iPod, MP3, or even your phone that’s just for your sexual encounter. When I want to express what I want I start with a particular song on a specific playlist, set the mood, create the ambiance, and then I let nature take its course. If you don’t create one and make sure to explore your inner freak through music. So, if you relate to any of that then you my darling have a soundtrack to your sex life. Before I leave you today let me give you my audience a song “Slowly” by Syleena Johnson you’re welcome.
Love Always,
