Recently I was itching to watch a great live concert but I didn't want to pull up the usual suspects like Beyoncé, Michael Jackson, Usher, Janet Jackson, Pink etc. from my archives. Then, I remembered that Apple Music has a live concert series and that's where I found the subject of this week's career rewind, Ms. Jenny from the block herself, Jennifer Lopez. Her Apple Music Live concert reminded me that she is a great a live performer from the multiple outfit changes, the staging, lighting and her best asset which is her ability to dance. However, the one word that stayed in the forefront of my mind about J Lo while watching the concert was tenacity. Tenacity is simply defined as the quality of being very determined and not giving up easily and that's how I would sum up the totality of her career. The one thing you can bet you last dollar on is Ms. Lopez giving her 1000% in everything she does. Her varied career in entertainment has had many highs and lows but she never lets the low moments deter her because she keeps going and going. Yet make no mistake many would sell their right hand and many other things we will not mention to have just half the success she has had in the unforgiving music industry. So with that mind I have decided to share my top 12 favourite tracks from her iconic discography throughout her distinguished career. The tunes that were chosen represent singles which are songs that were released to multiple formats to promote her various albums. The songs are listed in chronological order based on the release date of her albums and is not ranked in terms of personal favourability.

Woman in The Mirror by Sacha album cover Ads can be such a nuisance! However, we have all had a moment where those pesky advertisements can be life changing.

"june" by DE'WAYNE album cover "She's a synthesizer, Orchestrates the band, She's got the whole world, Wrapped around her finger, She's a synthesizer, Baby don't you understand, She's my heaven she's my earth, She's my woman she's my man." Lyrics taken from https://www.azlyrics.com/lyrics/dewaynejackson/synthesizer.html The song "synthesizer" was how I was introduced to the wonderful artist called De'Wayne. I came across a snippet of the video on Twitter and decided to give the song a listening ear and I instantly feel in love. This new discovery filled me with so much joy because as an avid music listener I always seek to expand my musical horizons to listen to genres I usually do not follow. Therefore, coming across a Rock N Roll artist that I instantly liked was so exhilarating. I listened to the song until my own ears and music player got fed up with me and was even more elated when I discovered he was releasin...
