Going to the gym and not having some jams to listen to is type boring…you need some motivational juice of music to say WHOOP SOME EXERCISING ASS, don’t you think?  Well I have one of my play-list that stays on repeat that fits me to make me anger, hype, ready to dance, shake a booty or two, or straight up wild out and act a fool.

Taylor Gang – Wiz Khalifa
Dig A Hole – Jay Z
Grown Simba – J Cole
Body Ya – Fabolous
Yonkers
– Tyler, The Creator
Transylvania – Tyler, The Creator
FastLane – Eminem & Royce 5,9
Otis – Kanye West & Jay Z
H.A.M. – Kanye West 7 Jay Z
Disgusting – J. Cole
Freeze – T-Pain
In The End – Linkin Park
Faint – Linkin Park

This is just some of my songs I have in my playlist…there is more in which I will share in part 2 of this post.

Here is how I prep before my workout.
1.
 I talk to myself and complain how FAT I am and how I am not going HARD enough.
2.
 I go and look at my face in the mirror, and say you ain’t nothing homie, I bet you can’t go HARD TODAY.
3.
 Then I say to myself, WHAT?? Heck Yea I can go hard…Splash myself with COLD WATER to GET PUMPED…
4.
Start reciting lyrics from one of my favorite HYPED songs, while I get dress and mp3 player/iPod is charging…
5.
 Step outside my door blasting my gym play-list in my earbuds…and ignoring th world for I am going to go in for a GREAT WORKOUT.

.  Special Tips..SING OUT LOUD, it makes you feel the music more…Forget what the people in the world have to say…lol…or at least lip sync the songs or very low-level that no one can hear how bad you can rap or sing.

What music do you listen to? Do you have a gym playlist?  Do you listen to any of the songs listed above?

I Need A Writing / Blogging Playlist

The discouraged Nenene suffering from writer's...

Just as we may have a playlist for cleaning, jogging, working out or maybe even cooking, is there a playlist or relaxing songs for writing or blogging.  Some days the motivation to write a song, poem, or just something creative is there, but then sometimes we get distracted and lose focus is writing.  I don’t mean writer’s block in which it could have been but more of a comfort feeling to be yourself and enjoy the task.  Maybe some cool jazz, or classic musical music could do the trick.  I am going to try something from the norm as an experiment to see if there is something worth relaxing my mind to create or to be inspired by just listening.

Do you have a soundtrack or playlist you listen to while writing or blogging or do you try to stay in silence?
