DAY 1: Settle Down vs. Take Down: The Valentine’s Day Mix

Let’s keep it real folks, Valentine’s Day is about one of two things: the “take down” or the “settle down”. If you’re not doing one, you’re trying to do the other. It’s about sliding the ring on or sliding the panties off (we’re keepin it real, right?) But we’re far beyond the days where a teddy bear, balloons and a box of chocolates would do the trick. There’s nothing wrong with letting music do the talking when u can’t seem to find the right words – but even still make sure u send the right message. Remember it’s all about the take down vs. the settle down. Depending on where you wanna end up, you may want more Teddy Pendergrass than Luther Vandross, more Trey Songz than Jaheim or more Janet Jackson than Tamia. So all this week, we’re gonna be giving you suggestions for making that Valentine’s Day Playlist – guaranteed to set the mood right and get some good lovin poppin off. We’ll need your input so here’s how it’ll go…
