Every so often, a musician decides to write a song celebrating his or her mom, and I would like to provide a top ten list of my favorite “mom” inspired rap and R & B songs to acknowledge my mother, grandmothers, great-grandmothers, aunts, cousins, friends and any mothers with whom I have come in contact. Here’s a playlist just for you!
“Dear Mama (You Are Appreciated)” by Tupac Shakur: “There are no words that can express how I feel. You never kept a secret, always stayed real. And I appreciate, how you raised me. And all the extra love that you gave me.”- “All That I Got is You” by Ghostface Killah: “All that I got is you, and I’m so thankful I made it through.”
- “A Song for Mama” by Boyz II Men: “Mama, Mama you know I love you. Mama, Mama you’re the queen of my heart. Your love is like tears from the stars. Mama I just want you to know lovin’ you is like food to my soul. Yes it is, yes it is, oh, yes it is, yes it is, yes it is oh”
- “Super Hero” by Raheem DeVaughn: “Some think that super heroes climb buildings and fly through the sky. Well I beg to differ. Mama you’re the reason why. Some may think a role model strikes a home run or a touch dow, but mama’s always been a soldier back then and right now.”
- “This Woman’s Work” by Maxwell: Pray God you can cope. I stand outside this woman’s work, This woman’s world. Ooh, it’s hard on the man, Now his part is over. Now starts the craft of the father.
- “Momma Loves Me” by Jay Z: “Momma loved me, pop left me. Grandma dressed me, plus she fed me banana puddin, what’s in the hood then.”
“Hey Mama” by Kanye West: “(Hey Mama), I wanna scream so loud for you, cuz I’m so proud of you. Let me tell you what I’m about to do, (Hey Mama). I know I act a fool but, I promise you I’m goin back to school. I appreciate what you allowed for me. I just want you to be proud of me (Hey Mama).- “Momma Said Knock You Out” by LL Cool J: “I’m gonna knock you out (HUUUH!!!)
Mama said knock you out (HUUUH!!!)”
- “I Love My Momma” by Snoop Dogg: “The first one to hold me. The first one to scold me. You never cease to teach me. And always try to reach me. Took me to school the first day. Taught me how to kneel, down and pray. You learned me how to count from one to ten. And never forget, where I’ve been Momma..
- “Sweet Sadie” by R. Kelly: I Love you mama. I just can’t forget how you gave me love oh no If there’s a Heaven up above I know she’s teaching angels how to love. It’s a mean world
Without ya. And I surely miss you much mother. And now that your gone I’m gonna carry on
Happy mother’s day to you. Please enjoy this R & B and rap mother’s day playlist, and feel free to share your favorite song celebrating mothers with me.
All the best,
