7 Days of Love | The Sexy Playlist

Happy Valentine's Day, beautiful people! Alas, we have reached the final day of our "7 Days of Love" collaboration, and I must say it's bittersweet. I've had fun engaging with you guys this week. We've talked about ways to keep our marriages hot & sexy, we've shared stories about our first kiss with our husbands, and we've even given you a few ideas for date night looks and romantic Valentine's Day dinners. And to end it all with a bang, we're sharing a playlist of our favorite sexy songs to set the mood. Now y'all know this is right up my alley, right? If I could, I'd make you all a mixtape for the occasion! But since I can't, I'm going to share a lengthy list of my favorites with you guys. Now let me warn you ahead of time-- some of these songs are not for the faint of heart. I'm gonna take it easy with a few of them myself, as I am not ready to be running behind baby # 4 yet, lol. Check out the list, though. I hope you see something you like!

The Weekend Lover: Raheem Devaughn

I remember like yesterday the first time I heard Raheem Devaughn sing.  I was cleaning up behind my babies one afternoon while BET Jazz (now Centric TV) was playing all the Neo-Soul hits of the time.  Raheem Devaughn's song "You"  came on and instantly put me in a trance.  His smooth-like-butter vocals and alluring lyrics made me a fan from that day forward.  Not to mention the fact that he's very easy on the eyes ;-)

Here are some of my favorites by the man that is Raheem Devaughn.  Warning:  Some of his lyrics are known to awaken and fondle your sensual side!

What is your favorite Raheem Devaughn song?

The Weekend Lover: Jon B. (Repost)

Today I am being wooed by the crooning of none other than Jon B.  His voice is so smooth and sultry that I immediately go into a sentimental mood just listening to him.  Never mind the fact that one of my long lost loves from back in the day has a strong resemblance to him (that's another story for another day).  Hope you enjoy the tunes from Jon B., starting with my favorite, "Pretty Girl".

The Weekend Lover: Tyrese

Ladies, this weekend's lover is none other than Tyrese. What is there not to love about this man? He has a soulfully sensual voice that will lure you to ecstasy in seconds. In fact, he is an award-winning vocalist and actor. He has recently added "author" to his collection of hats with his book How To Get Out Of Your Own Way. Not to mention, he has the physique of a greek god, sculpted to perfection. Whew, I love that man!

Though many know him from critically-acclaimed roles such as "Jody" from Baby Boy, "Roman" from the Fast and Furious franchise, or "O2" from Waist Deep, he will most significantly be known in my heart as one of my favorite R&B crooners. These are the songs that made me fall in love with Tyrese over and over again.

Are you a fan of Tyrese and his music?  If so, what are your favorite songs?

Introducing the Weekend Lover: Ginuwine

Those of you who have been following me know that I love doing my dose of diva on Mondays, featuring songs by my favorite divas.  This has been a great way to start the week off for me.  Now in giving the ladies so much love at the beginning of the week, I noticed I haven't been giving my weekend lovers any shine.

"Ok Dre, what are you talking about?" some of you may be thinking.  But on the weekends, when I'm laid back and in my chill state, I love to listen to an R&B tune from the best of them.  When I'm at home and able to let my hair down, I like to get caught up in a good book, a nice bottle of wine, and a tantalizing baritone seeping through the speakers.  So let me introduce to you my weekend lovers (posts).  First off is Ginuwine.

I don't know if I ever told you guys this, but I used to have the biggest crush on Ginuwine back in the day.  I mean, I was obsessed.  Ask any of my cousins or siblings who used to laugh at me for having his picture framed on my nightstand in my younger days.  Anyways, today I was on my Ginuwine flow so I just wanted to share a few of my favorite tracks with you.
