In case you need a recap, here ya go:

Cobra Starship You Make Me Feel...

Britney Spears (Drop Dead) Beautiful

Now Sabi is taking center stage recording her debut album for Warner Brothers. With her already released tracks like Champagne and Where They Do That At (featuring Wale) as well as the song she recorded with Diplo, Barely Standing, Sabi shows that she's not just another pretty pop star. Although she IS, indeed, very pretty.

These songs have some major urban swagger and a raw edge reflecting Sabi's love for alternative rock and urban music...and these club bangers are perfect for pumping up your next gym playlist. Sabi stepped out of the studio to share some of her inspiring style and hot music tips for working out.

I INTERVIEWED DEBBIE HARRY, YES REALLY.

DEBBIE HARRY ON HEALTH, FITNESS AND MUSIC - INTERVIEW WITH MUSIQUE (THAT'S ME)

Me:  What inspires you to work out? How do you work out? And is it true that you love the Insanity workout?

Debbie Harry: I have a great trainer who runs me through all kinds of hoops. He takes exercises from everywhere - it's unlimited. He shows me multitasking plyometric techniques to do on my own.

Me: You were a part of the sex, drugs, rock + roll scene in the 1970's. Did fitness have a role in that scene?...

I'm calling it Goodbye 2011 because as one year ends an even better one gets ushered in. I know you're with me on this one!

PLEASE BEWARE! This is an unconventional workout mix but I quite like it because it starts with Ludo (I went to highschool with frontman, Andrew Volpe) and ends with my new-found musical crush, Michael Kiwanuka. My puggles and I are listening to the mix right now as we prepare to go out for an evening run.
