Premiere: Sunday, July 1 at 9 p.m. ET/8C
Cheryl Pepsii Riley burst on the scene in 1988 with her #1 hit single “Thanks for My Child,” a ballad that paid tribute to the love of single mothers for their children. Under the songwriting and production umbrella of the Full Force family she seemed destined to keep rising as a star. However, after a series of singles about provocative subjects, her label struggled with how to market her, and Cheryl’s career foundered. Determined to support her family by any means necessary, she took musical back roads from session work to back-up singing, while raising several children with the help of her husband and family. She eventually reinvented herself as a musical stage actress in plays by Tyler Perry and continues to stay true to her musical roots.
Episode features candid discussion on Cheryl Pepsii Riley with Tyler Perry,Shemar Moore, Full Force and more.

Savoring The Sensual Rhythms Of “Moonlight Shoreside” By The Good Neighbors

Published

By

Buckle up, folks, because The Good Neighbors are back with a banger that’s bound to make waves. Hailing from the vibrant city of Buffalo, NY, this genre-defying crew is turning heads once again with their latest single, “Moonlight Shoreside.” Led by the dynamic duo of Connor Getz and Jacob Frasier, The Good Neighbors are on a mission to blur the lines between jazz, pop, and indie, and let me tell you, they’re doing it with style.

“Moonlight Shoreside” isn’t just a song; it’s a vibe. Picture this: you’re strolling along the shore on a balmy summer night, the moon casting its silvery glow over the sand. The air is thick with anticipation as you steal glances at your companion, wondering if tonight’s the night when sparks will fly. That’s the energy The Good Neighbors bring to the table with this track.

From the get-go, “Moonlight Shoreside” hooks you in with its infectious melodies and irresistible groove. The combination of shimmering synths, funky basslines, and crisp percussion creates a sonic tapestry that’s as intoxicating as a sea breeze on a hot day. Seriously, try listening to this song without tapping your foot – I dare you.

But it’s not just the music that’s got us hooked; it’s the story behind the song that really pulls at the heartstrings. “Moonlight Shoreside” is a tale of longing and uncertainty, set against the backdrop of a moonlit rendezvous by the water. As the lyrics unfold, we’re drawn into a world of whispered secrets and stolen moments, where the line between friendship and something more becomes increasingly blurred.

In the chorus, vocalist Connor Getz lays it all on the line, his voice dripping with emotion as he sings, “Now the others are all gone. Why continue to lead me on?” It’s a gut-wrenching plea for clarity in the midst of confusion, and it hits you right in the feels.

But don’t let the heavy subject matter fool you – “Moonlight Shoreside” is also a whole lot of fun. There’s a playful energy running through the track that’s impossible to resist, like a game of cat and mouse between two star-crossed lovers. It’s the kind of song that makes you want to grab your crush by the hand and dance the night away under the moonlight.

Ultimately, “Moonlight Shoreside” is a certified bop that’s guaranteed to get you in your feelings and on your feet at the same time. The Good Neighbors have knocked it out of the park once again with this one, delivering a track that’s equal parts sexy, soulful, and downright addictive.
