From Tom's Make it Rain to Montell's Let it Rain.
From a loss to gain.
From Thursday's Reach to a Friday Fun Fact.

Montell Jordan reportedly left Def Jam Records fifteen years ago. The supposed reason was artistic differences, but it may also be a fact that he wanted to leave being a sex symbol behind. I think we have to respect the guy who almost crooned, "This is how we do it."

Then he got his own church in 2008.
It was his Let It Rain album.
The whole album is a sex symbol.
He couldn't avoid it.

In 2009 he put out an album explaining, "This is how I do it."

I don't know. Maybe when you were sixteen Montell said, "Everything is gonna be alright."

Or maybe this is what we call, "Old school."


Today I am grateful for economy, irony, and music.
