This week I decided to do a little Diva/Band Mixtape. I mixed up with some funk and some disco. Found time to include a little rap which of course started in the 70′s. If you don’t know all the lyrics to Rapper’s Delight…you are not a black music fan!In that section Todd Kelly dropped through.  Mr. Fresh made sure to get in a request for “Disco Nights” by GQ. I can just see him hustling can’t you? Me and EJ share a deep love for LTD…when they wore funky clothes and danced like rabbits. DJ Diva is a true lover of Diva music so I had to include Donna Summers, Gloria Gaynor and start off the mix with two of my favorites by Diana Ross. My husband has been requesting Earth Wind and Fire for like forever so I blessed him with two of our favorite cuts. And lastly…My brothers…the twins…love to rollerskate so I included some songs I can remember from when my aunts used to take me skating at the old rink on 135th and Broadway.

I hope you enjoy it!

It’s MARCH!!! That means it’s my birthday month! This Month I’m turning the big 3-5!

My musical lifespan includes 4 decades of music starting with the 70′s. I’m proud to be a 70′s baby LOL.

So we starting the month off with some of my disco favorites. My parents were hustle fanatics and my father was the Dominican Hustle King of 135th and Broadway! That me with my disco daddy! In the seventies and the early part of the eighties…everybody did the hustle…and if you weren’t fly with it? I’ve been told they quickly shut you down on the dance floor! I still do the hustle. My cousin C and I usually end up doing it at family functions, to the delight of our younger generation who weren’t as fortunate as we were to see it up close by Pros. I didn’t include Van McCoy’s “Do The Hustle” in the mixtape ….but I have a video to show you what it was like if you don’t know!!!

I’m gonna follow it up with the REMIX on Thursday so if you don’t hear your favorite…don’t be discouraged! I hope you all enjoy it and don’t forget to give me some birthday love this month!
