SUMMER PLAYLIST

Although it may feel like summer in Botswana, we are still technically at the beginning of spring. Yes it's hot, but J. Cole's official first single is even hotter! Work Out captures the concept of guys hitting the basketball courts on a hot day with beauty ladies all around. An attractive lady catches J. Cole's eye, which leads to a fling at a party as J. gets his mack on. If you haven't seen the video be sure to check it out above.

SUMMER PLAYLIST

Continuing with the Summer Playlist HAUS OF  KINGS remembers the talented Aaliyah with a few of her videos that turned up the heat back in the day. 

Being my favourite artist of all time, Aaliyah was credited for helping redefine R&B and hip-hop, especially for females, thus earning her the nicknames "Princess of R&B" and "Queen of Urban Pop". With an angelic voice, effortless moves and her signature "street but sweet" style, she rocked us with her music and still does to this day.

 HOK commemorates Aaliyah.

(January 16, 1979 – August 25, 2001)

May her soul rest in peace.

SUMMER PLAYLIST

With summer just around the corner, I've decided from time to time to give you guys some of my favourite summer anthems to get you in the mood for summer.

Kicking things off is the song that dates back to 20 years ago that saw DJ Jazzy Jeff & The Fresh Prince collaborate on one of the finest songs of that era. "Summertime" incorporates what summer is all about: fun, fun, fun! With fashion that ranged from cropped tops, baseball shirts, shorts, sneakers and more, fun in the sun was the message passed on.

Enjoy.
