The Whatnauts 1970-
Message from a Black Man,
make it loud and clear.
The Whatnauts recorded I'll Erase Away Your Pain, a Philly soul ballad that became a cult classic among collectors. Their harmonies were smooth and their sound was warm. They never reached the heights of their Philly peers, but their records are treasures for anyone who finds them. More on The Whatnauts →

Who's Lovin' You 0:30 is the question that haunts after a breakup. He knows she left him for someone else but the curiosity eats him alive. He needs to know who took his place. The jealousy is not -- about ownership.

It is about wondering if someone else can love her better. The question is really about his own worth. Was he replaceable after everything they shared? The answer might destroy him but he needs to know.

Again
I heard from a friend today
And she said you were in town
Album art

They broke up and got back together. She wonders if history repeats. Cannot let him go. The pattern cycles. Again is the most dangerous word in love. It means knowing what is coming and choosing to stay anyway. That takes courage most people lack.

You’re Kidding, Right
Howlin' Wolf weighed 300 pounds, stood 6'3", and his voice was so powerful he could be heard over an entire field band without a microphone. He didn't just sing the blues -- he roared them like a big cat who'd swallowed a freight train. A man that size with a voice that big didn't need amplification. He was the amplification.
Soul in the Movies
Out of Sight 1998
Out of Sight Soderbergh's Out of Sight is the sexiest film ever made about a bank robber and a federal marshal. The Isley Brothers' 'It's Your Thing' plays as George Clooney and Jennifer Lopez flirt through bulletproof glass in the trunk of a car. Do what you wanna do. The song is about independence. The characters have none. It's your thing. The trunk knew better.

Why We're Here
Most of us grew up with free radio. Then corporations took over the playlist. Then we found Spotify and YouTube -- until the algorithm quietly decided what we liked, and suddenly we were stuck on repeat again. There's so much music out there, and only so much time to hear it.
At HotSupper, we just want to open things up a little. Maybe you'll stumble on an artist you've never heard of. Maybe you'll rediscover a song you'd completely forgotten. Maybe you'll just tap your toes. Either way, it's yours to explore. And if you have ideas to make this place better, we're all ears.
