Today has turned out to be one of those days that I discover that my love for Neo Soul music has just been Puppy love - There are those who are actual fanatics.

I met a guy today under totally different circumstances(he'd been called to our office for net support). Let us just say, my mind has been opened up to a whole new world where Neo Soul Music and artists thrive beyond my wildest imagination.
I discovered such artists like Rare Earth, N'dambi,Ola Onabule, Kendra Ross and many more. They can all be found on www.justsoul.net

One can also sample their music through two deadly online live streaming sites(for those with good bandwith). Projectvibe, Soul tracks and Aol radio.
