One of my favorite NY groups (and friends) Dujeous, have just released the second single off their upcoming full-length project DAY IN, DAY OUT. This song is actually one of my favorites of theirs and it features the soulful Sharon Jones of the Dap Kings.  This song really is perfect for a motivational anthem as the boys spit about what makes them keep moving forward when things get tough. If you haven’t had the chance the check out Dujeous live, you are missing one hell of a show…high energy, great rhythms and even greater rhymes.

Check out “Spectacular” and if you’re feeling this song as much as me, go to itunes to buy the track. For more information on one of the realest hip-hop groups in the game visit http://www.dujeous.net/.

Tam’s Monday Musical Motivation – “Three Little Birds” by Bob Marley and Gilberto Gil

This classic Bob Marley song was re-done by Grammy Award- winning Brazilian musician Gilberto Gil. The accompanying claymation video is really cute and uplifting. Sometimes you have to stop yourself, put a smile on your face and sing “Don’t worry, about a thing….everything little thing is gonna be alright….”
