@RedJokerYT  perhaps you could help me with this. I have been getting more request for Rap and Hip-Hop. The playlist is a public playlist, so the lyrics need to be kid friendly. So perhaps you can make some selections that would make everyone half happy. I do enjoy doing GSOTD daily post, but there is a lot of time that goes in to doing it. If I were not single, then chances are I would not be able to do it. It would be great if you could give me some selections, either Rap, or Hip - Hop, if you could do both that would be a huge bonus. And if you cannot, then don't sweat it, I will do what I can. Take care and stay safe.   ... View more

@EvoL1-  good day to you as well, I'm not sure what you mean by "BLAZE IT BUFFRRS"! but it sounds similar to that of  "Good day mate". Hope to see you around the community more. Take care and stay safe.  PS. Now I know what you mean, your Pandora app is buffering. Chances are your signal is weak, this happens to me as well during , what the internet providers call "The peak time of internet usage". You can get a booster, this will greatly improve your signal. Personally I think it is a money making scheme by the net providers so you buy the boosters. You can also take technical steps with your system so your music app stops, (lesser of a chance to buffer), close out programs that are un-necessary to run. This will greatly help your system.
