Revolutionary Soul
This mixtape was orginally born months ago from listening to @Brokemogul ‘s Soulful playlist on Spotify *. If you didn’t know: Scott Vener aka BrokeMogul is the Music Supervisor for HBO’s Entourage, How To Make It In America, 90210 and Forty. When I discovered his playlists *, what I had known about his music prowess, exploded into the stratosphere! You need to get to know this guy! I was playing around with what he had and made a playlist called Reactionary Soul *. I love Spotify LOL. It made sense to post it in time for Martin Luther King’s Birthday. People are struggling to make it (myself included) and I needed something to bring our spirits up. I hope you enjoy it and that makes you groove! ;)
(*if you have Spotify you can open the original playlists or add me ;) lol)

Mixtapes, Obama DJ Diva no no Obama apologizes to reporter he called ‘sweetie’ http://themixtress.com/2008/05/14/obama-apologizes-to-reporter-he-called-sweetie/ http://themixtress.com/2008/05/14/obama-apologizes-to-reporter-he-called-sweetie/#comments Thu, 15 May 2008 04:55:43 +0000 DJ Diva http://themixtress.com/?p=127  

Barack Obama apologized Wednesday to a Michigan TV reporter after he called her “sweetie” and dodged her question about autoworkers.

WXYZ-TV’s Peggy Agar shouted a question to the Democratic presidential candidate during his appearance at a Chrysler LLC plant in this auto-making suburb of Detroit.

Agar asked Obama what is he “going to do to help American autoworkers.”

“Hold on one second, sweetie,” Obama replied. “We’ll do a press (availability), thanks.” He did not reply to Agar’s question.

On the air later Wednesday, the station played a voice mail message Obama left for Agar. In it, Obama apologized for not getting back to her. He also told her he has a bad habit of calling people “sweetie.”

Obama then said: “I mean no disrespect, so I am duly chastened on that front.”
