“Music is energy, life, love,” Smalls said. “It stimulates my imagination and feeds my spirit, excites the task as well as the sheer pleasure I get from preparing, cooking, and entertaining in my home, especially for friends and family. I couldn't live, breathe, or eat without music.”

Here, Smalls shares a playlist broken into two categories: his favorite songs to listen to while cooking and his favorite songs to listen to while dining. (Find the full Spotify playlisthere。亚搏电竞亚搏电竞无论您是为一个社会距离的团体做饭还是在一个独奏之夜做盛宴,这些歌曲以及Smalls的食谱都会振奋。

Smalls最喜欢的烹饪歌曲:

Nina Simone的“ Sinnerman”

“Nina sets the mood for me. This song is full of energy and urgency, and her tonality and commanding presence is motivating. It gets my creative juices going.”

“I Got You (I Feel Good)” by James Brown

“From the Godfather of Soul, a Georgia boy bringing the soulfire of southern life in his music with soulful spirit, this is a tune of celebration and joy, which is how I feel when I cook for my friends and guests. I feel good!”

Leontyne Price的“ Vissi D’Arte”

“‘I lived for art, I lived for love.’ The first lines of this impassioned aria, sung by the great soprano Leontyne Price, who like Nina Simone serves up the essence of southern goodness, inspires me to translate her artistic expression as an ingredient on my plate.”

“Good and Terrible” by Ulysses Owens Jr.

“This is an exciting, upbeat, energizing piece with lots of percussion. I’m partial to this because the writer and artist is also the producer on my new recording that I just finished. His energy, musical intuitiveness, and grace when he plays just excites me. It’s a real percussion piece, so when you’re in the kitchen and banging it out, it’s a perfect beat.”

“I Say a Little Prayer” by Aretha Franklin

“The first note of Aretha Franklin’s voice, just wow. From that first note, she really gets you going. It’s a very rhythmic and soulful gospel-y song, smooth with bursts of excitement in her voice. When I’m cooking, I really like to feel like energy is flowing, and this is a good pick-me-up song.”

玛哈莉亚·杰克逊(Mahalia Jackson)的“我如何克服”

“This song is like when you’re cooking and you take a little taste to see if you’re on point, and you’re savoring this thing and you throw your head back and you think, how I got over. All the flavors came together, like this big vocal presence of Mahalia Jackson.”

“Mood Indigo” by Jason Moran and Charles Lloyd

“这是饼干制作音乐。我付小费in the kitchen armed with buttermilk, flour, butter, baking powder, and eggs, mixing, beating, rolling, cutting, twisting to the sassy horn and rhythmic punctuation of the piano. This song brings order and joy to me, even when I'm not making biscuits!”

蒂娜·特纳(Tina Turner)的“骄傲玛丽”

“Big wheels keep on turning, keep moving, you’re in it, you’re almost there. Cooking is like a marathon and you have that energy flowing. Cooking should be fun and people should understand that it’s not a chore. If it’s a chore for you, you probably shouldn’t be cooking. Proud Mary helps you keep it going.”

威尔逊·皮克特(Wilson Pickett)的“野马莎莉”

“这有点怀旧,尤其是对我来说,因为它使我想起了我父亲在他的夜总会的自动点唱机,威尔逊·皮克特(Wilson Pickett)到处都是自动点唱机。”

Aretha Franklin的“尊重”

“尊重酱汁。尊重香料。尊重农产品。给食物一些尊重。”亚搏电竞

“I Heard It Through The Grapevine” by Gladys Knight

格拉迪斯骑士(Gladys Knight)为南方的美妙氛围提供了服务。她是Soul Souther Souther歌手的缩影,它非常旋律,与此同时,她的音调灿烂而明亮,节拍会养活您,并帮助您继续前进,因为烹饪是一段旅程。您需要那个脉搏和跳动。”

格蕾丝·琼斯(Grace Jones)

“格蕾丝的音乐往往有一些加勒比海的声音,而且节奏非常有节奏。她说话和唱歌有点像伸长的说唱。这是非常抒情和有力的,它是强大而指挥的。当您开始从游戏中脱颖而出时,Grace可以带您回来。我知道巴黎的格蕾丝,她在迪斯科舞会上放了我的衬衫。这是我买过的最昂贵的衬衫,这是这件事称为Polyest Silk的新东西。她的香烟着火了我的衬衫,那个聚酯蛋糕在火焰中升起,我在这里讲这个故事,无疤。恩典对开火并不陌生。”

碧昂斯的“疯狂爱情”

“Beyoncé is of course a contemporary of these great women. She’s sassy and brilliant. This is a moment when you might put the spoon down and start dancing a little bit. She helps you stay in the moment and feed the energy.”

“Fallin’” by Alicia Keys

“Alicia is the soulful activist voice. There’s a little bit of an activist, and there’s a storyteller and a preacher in her songs. She has a way of engaging you and calming you down at the same time. After being so electrified by many of these other singers, it’s a nice little mellow moment in the kitchen.”

“Let's Stay Together” by Al Green

“再次是一个柔和的时刻。艾尔带来了南方的意识。由于我的大部分食物都基于非洲侨民,亚搏电竞因此那些柔和的音调和笔记和可爱的即兴演奏使我受到了启发和启发。”

惠特尼·休斯顿(Whitney Houston)的“我是每个女人”

“Then there is the great Whitney Houston. I’m every woman. Wow. that song was of course written by Ashford & Simpson who are dear friends, and hallmarks of the sounds of Motown. Whitney revists Motown in this piece, and Motown becomes the ambiance in your kitchen, from Ashford & Simpson to The Supremes to The Temptations, and she brings all that alive.”

阿雷莎·富兰克林(Aretha Franklin)的“你送我”

“闷热,柔和,冷却。到现在为止,您的大部分烹饪都应该已经完成​​。这是杂乱无章的时间。一切都设定并准备就绪。Aretha为我准备离开厨房。”

Shola Adisa-Farrar的“感觉很好”

“I'm setting my table and feeling good, dancing between the china cabinet and linen drawer, arranging the flowers and placing my mother's wedding silverware on beautiful African prints from my travels. I'm simply feeling good.”

“Tight” by Jazzmeia Horn

“Jazzmeia Horn gives me energy to make that final exit. A smart, engaging, young Sarah Vaughan kind of flavor. She helps mellow me out.”

“The Jazz in You” by Patti LaBelle

“然后我完成了帕蒂拉贝尔。帕蒂是in and makes the joyful noise and allows you to transcend all that cooking and get yourself ready for the evening. Time to get those clothes on, put the finishing touches on the apartment and dining room table, and get ready to meet your guests.”

Smalls最喜欢的用餐歌曲:

马文·盖伊(Marvin Gaye)的“发生了什么事”

“Marvin Gay is soulful rapture, smooth and sassy, fresh. His tunes make everybody comfortable, relaxed, and ready to mingle. Part familiar and part whimsical, this is a feel-good song!”

Dee Dee Bridgewater的“来周日”

“迪·迪(Dee Dee)的抒情声音引人入胜,轻松而温柔。毫不动摇但很诱人。这是增强氛围并激发一两个想法的完美歌曲。”

雪莉·霍恩(Shirley Horn)

“雪莉·霍恩(Shirley Horn)是一位非凡的歌手和音乐家。这首歌是一种欢迎的致敬,是向人们打招呼并将他们带入的绝妙方式。“ Come Sunday”的甜美催眠曲使每个人都脱颖而出,然后您有了一首歌,例如“ Reshes to to Life”以及它带来的所有喜悦。在非常积极和美丽的事物中互相培育是一个美好的时刻。”

“Look for the Silver Lining” by Leslie Odom Jr.

“这是保持整个晚上阳性的另一种方式。莱斯利·奥多姆(Leslie Odom Jr.)的声音丰富的声音使您坐在您的座位上,并保持这些奇妙的振动。”

约翰·科尔特兰(John Coltrane)的“郁郁葱葱的生活”

“约翰·科尔特兰(John Coltrane)有一种怀旧之情。抒情是今天的,但它植根于一种古老的文化表达,锚定了夜晚和聚会。”

莉娜·霍恩(Lena Horne)的“暴风雨”

“这令人眼花azz乱。莉娜·霍恩(Lena Horne)魅力四射,她的唱歌魅力四射,魅力为聚会带来了如此美好的细微差别,里面有美味的食物和令人满意的饮料。”亚搏电竞

格雷戈里·波特(Gregory Porter)的“上帝保佑孩子”

“Gregory Porter’s rich baritone is anchored in a cultural expression of the south. It creates a wonderful cradle for the evening.”

南希·威尔逊(Nancy Wilson)的“我不能让你爱我”

“然后,我们毕业于'我不能让你爱我'。南希·威尔逊(Nancy Wilson)的声音就像一个深情的大提琴。她有一种抓住你的灵魂的方式,让您感到脆弱,并对您花时间的美好团队的动态开放。”

劳林·希尔(Lauryn Hill)的“最甜蜜的东西”

“劳林·希尔(Lauryn Hill)的方式几乎相同。我可以看到我们通过食物课程毕业。亚搏电竞我喜欢为家庭风格提供服务,因为我喜欢食物能够拥有很大的存在。亚搏电竞我喜欢人们觉得他们应该得到食物,也应该得到食物。亚搏电竞这就是家庭风格所做的,它散发出赏金,我们都通过食物建立了联系。”亚搏电竞

戴安娜·罗斯(Diana Ross)的“没有足够高的山峰”

“一首辉煌而美丽的情歌,有助于提供更多的爱。食物是爱亚搏电竞,我们都在所有的可爱中都感到沮丧。阿什福德(Ashford)和辛普森(Simpson)写了这首歌,而莫敦(Motown)的女王戴安娜(Diana)使其出名。她脆弱但引人入胜的声音清晰感是具有感染力的。”

唐尼·海瑟薇(Donny Hathaway)的《为你的歌》

“唐尼·海瑟薇(Donny Hathaway)的宁静色调。这是华丽的钢琴音调和动作,这种音乐不仅使人们互相互动,而且可以感到受到支持。”

“Killing Me Softly with His Song” by Roberta Flack

“Roberta and I have a birthday a couple of days apart. I’ve known her for years, and we have the same voice teacher. She has that brilliant piano playing, similar to Nina Simone, and classical training. She puts together storytelling in such a brilliant, beautiful way.”

纳特·金·科尔(Nat King Cole)的“难忘”

“‘Killing Me Softly with His Song’ mellows into ‘Unforgettable,’ absolutely one of the most smooth, luxurious sounds a human has ever made. ‘Unforgettable’ is one of the most unforgettable songs, constantly reminding all of us who gather how fortunate and blessed we are.”

菲利斯·海曼(Phyllis Hyman)的“我一生中的某个地方”

“An extraordinary musical force who had the ability to marry old style with new style, lush and embracing, which is why she marries well into Luther Vandross.”

路德·范德罗斯(Luther Vandross)的“我(谁都没有)”

“他是最终的骗子。您可以想象,这个晚宴持续了几个小时。这些歌曲只是把我们留在那里,路德给了我们这种丰富的演绎。到这个时候,我们已经进入了主菜,也许是第二个主菜。确实是崇高的。”

兰迪·克劳福德(Randy Crawford)的“佐治亚州的雨夜”

“她给音乐环境带来了温暖的神秘焦虑。一种非常原始的直接声音,确实给人留下了深刻的印象。”

“What a Wonderful World” Jon Batiste

“路易斯·阿姆斯特朗(Louis Armstrong)使这首歌非常受欢迎,但是我们开始逐渐变成甜点,并感受到恩典,以及我们所有人都能分享美食,陪伴和音乐的幸运。”亚搏电竞

Cecile McLorin Salvant的“星期一”

“爵士神童,华丽的声音,深情。然而,她也很精神,在圣灵上也很容易。她只是滑入并提供甜味。”

凯瑟琳·巴特(Kathleen Battle)的“夏日”

“This brilliant lullaby twist of nostalgia goes well with dessert and a single barrel whisky, bourbon or brandy. The clear passion and tonality of Kathleen Battles voice singing Gershwin's classic is simply that...classic!”

温顿·马尔萨里斯(Wynton Marsalis)的《你的想法》

“温顿是如此的叛军,原因太多了。爵士乐的救世主是古典音乐的坏男孩。这是一种味蕾。他在晚上开始精美地过渡我们,因为无论温顿玩什么扮演什么,它总是对此有艰难的态度。因此,凭借其他音乐的甜蜜,他开始毕业于我们的夜晚。”

艾丽西亚·霍尔·莫兰(Alicia Hall Moran)的“只是为了激动”

“这首歌是在晚餐期间收集甜点菜的晚餐和最后一杯饮料的最后一首歌,当您吃了整夜最好的那一刻,那一刻。”

Jessye Norman的“ Beau Soir”

Esther女王的“我想回家”
