I’ve been reorganizing my harddrive and running into some real treats! Here’s a 2 disc vinyl rip of beats from each of the producers released after
In 2005, Jazzanova linked up with Common and remixed his current single, Go and made it even sexier than the video for the original, all while
I completely missed out on this, more than likely because I erroneously thought this was Ms.Fat Booty Pt2 featuring Ghostface Killah from Lyricist Lounge 2. Instead it’s a jazzy, dope DJ Spinna remix that deserves more attention. Check it out
Not only did Consequence get noticeably removed from the Tribe documentary, it is also exceedingly difficult to locate a picture of all of them together.

A classic case of B-Side wins again as Mos Def connects w/Vinia Mojica over a classic park break. The A-side, The Jump Off pairs Yasiin with Ludacris over a predictable commercial track possibly designed to gain radio play. The flip finds Mos in classic b-boy mode, getting the party started and definitely having fun.

The track, with it’s jazzy, almost bossa feel really sounds like it could’ve enjoyed space on the Sergio Mendes remix project, Timeless Will did later. Enjoy…and don’t forget your late pass
Amazingly this was the B-side of a Theo Parrish re-edit 12″, Ugly Edits Vol. 1. Who is Jill Scotthad been released a few years prior, Jill
I’ve always been a huge fan of Bugz in the Attic’s work, but this one right here used to be my ultimate jam. Released in ’05, featuring M’pho on vocals with Bembe Segue backing her up, if this once can’t make you dance…
It’s splotchy, wonky, even broken electro soul, but Booty La La hits you in a really primal area that causes you to release yourself through dance and feels FANTASTIC on a Friday! If you want to approach the day slow and easy, then check out Ishfaq’s remix of the track HERE
11 years ago DJ Hurricane released his 3rd and final solo album, Dont Sleep named after his production company. Unfortunately, it would seem people did
There are so many great names associated with this tune, that I don’t know where to begin. First of all, this is a Minnie Riperton
I clearly rememeber when the original version of Southern Girl hit, back in ’99, right before Rahzel’s Make the Music album dropped because radio stations
