The track list is as follows: Read the rest of this entry »

Supa Qool DJ Uncle Q Mixtapes

I ran into Supa Qool DJ Uncle Q of http://filthyspeakeraddict.com last night, and he passed me a copy of his Maxwell mixtape. I’m going to spread the weath with you all over here, since a lot of you liked his Raphael Saadiq mixtape from awhile back. To get the Maxwell one, click here or on the photo above.     Read the rest of this entry »

Sweet Nothings In Your Ear

One of the best things about being a certified internet geek is that you find out about a lot of great things which can be acquired for the price of $FREEnintey-nine, but are totally worth paying for. Since it’s Valentine’s Day, everybody and their mother seems to have made a mixtape for the occasion. Since I’m all about sharing the wealth, I’m going to list a few mixtapes of note, along with their download links.

Olivia Munn’s Valentines Day Mixtape – Complex Magazine and the only woman on Earth with a sense of humor as random and irreverent as mine, Olivia Munn, have teamed up to present her eclectic mix of songs for Valentine’s Day. As you can see from the photo above, Ms. Munn looks pretty good tied by cassette tapes, so she must know what she’s doing. The reasons she listed for using the songs are pretty funny, too.

DJ D. Souff Presents Southern Seduction, Vol. 11 – Last year, I gave out DJ D.Souff’s Valentine’s mixtape to everyone who participated in the Black History Month contest. Since I didn’t hold the contest this year, I decided to share the latest mixtape from him with everyone. Lots of nice slow grooves for those looking to unwind tonight.

Nina B Presents The Happy Valentine Tape – Nina B. is one of the most interesting people I’ve encountered since joining Twitter, and easily one of the most talented. This mixtape is one that she is offering for free on her blog. I haven’t had a chance to listen to it just yet, since I spent so much time preparing my own podcast for this site. I’m really looking forward to checking it out on my iPod a little later, because she’s definitely a star in the making.

DC To BC Singles Awareness Day Mixtape – I haven’t heard this one yet either, but everything Modi and the folks at DC to BC put on the blog is quality stuff. Check out the entry, and request your copy over there at DCtoBC.com.

*Bonus* Sex, Love and Heartbreak, Volume 2 – I was just told about this site by Gureala, and it instantly earned a bookmark! I’ll definitely be back for more.

Let me know if you all have any more suggestions of mixtapes that should be listed here. Happy Valentines Day, and remember these three rules:

1. Please use a condom if you’re having sex tonight.
2. If you do not have a Valentine and you’re looking to hookup with someone new, don’t go ugly early! Do not let your lack of a true Valentine lower your self esteem into settling for someone you’re not attracted to. These people are called “2:59s” for a reason: They are ONLY worth acknowledging to if you’ve had no luck all night, and the club is about to close.
3. Remember that the only realistic expectation to bring with you tonight is to have an enjoyable time. Not flowers. Not candy. Not sex. Just focus on having fun, and the rest will work itself out.

Good Music Tonight

To all of my folks in the DC area tonight, DJ Universall from my birthday party will be doing his thing at Looking Glass Lounge again, starting at 11:00. I decided to announce this here for two reasons:

1. People kept asking about the DJ that night, because he’s THAT good
2. It gives me a reason to give you all a copy of his mixtape to play in your ride, regardless of what your plans are tonight.

I feel kind of bad for not posting DJ Universall’s 2Thousand Now mixtape here earlier, mainly because once I set aside time to listen to it, I loved it. What gets me is that I knew the dude was good, because I’d heard him two times before. Nevertheless, I procrastinated and bojangled for almost two weeks before uploading it, even though his talent was a proven commodity. I would nominate myself for the prestigious Pookie Award for Crackhead Excellence, but since I’m giving away free stuff for the third straight day over here, I think I’m exempt despite my screw-up.

DJ Universall – 2Thousand Now Mixtape

Enjoy, and if you like what you’re listening to, stop by Looking Glass Lounge tonight at 3634 Georgia Ave NW, and tell DJ Universall what you think.
