I am Soulbounce‘s first female Mixologist!!!!!

I can’t tell you how excited I am!!! It’s another 80′s Smooth Grooves Mix.  This would be Part 6!  Much Love  to Huny, ButtaBaby and Ill Mami for thinking of me when they thought of a female DJ.

Special thanks to Huny for the Coverart..My girl is BAD with the graphics! Check her out at Phattygirl.com for design and graphic requests!

Here’s what they had to say over at Soulbounce:

How remiss would we be at SoulBounce, now featuring an all-female staff for the first time in our three years of existence, if we did not include a little sisterly love in our Mixologists series. Long-time friend of our little website that could and did, DJ Diva, aka “The Mixtress of R&B,” brings the hotness wherever she can be found. Since we’re all ’80s babies and who doesn’t love a little early ’80s R&B hotness in their lives, DJ Diva has carefully selected some songs for her debut Mixologists mixtape. This most certainly won’t be her last but that’s not to say that you shouldn’t be downloading this mix as fast as possible. This particular mix is a preview of her Monday Mixtape so we’re all in for an early treat this weekend. Make sure to grab a CD-quality version for 99 cents if you want your mix to bang in all of its glory. Many thanks to DJ Diva for blessing us with such a great mix.

Hey Everybody!

This is a special mix for me. Afrobella requested a mixtape for her Caress Girls Night Out giveaway which included everything in this lovely picture below:

Five people will win the two new Whipped Soufflé Body Washes, and ONE lucky Grand Prize winner will receive the ultimate “Caress Girls’ Night Out Essentials Prize Pack” which includes:
New Caress Whipped Soufflés Body Washes (Blackberry Cream & White Peach Cream) , a  Susan Farber hot pink clutch and a pink iPod Nano so you can bump your girls night out soundtrack as you get ready to hit the town!

And I’m providing the Sountrack!!! yay!!!

This week’s Monday Mixtape is dedicated to my sister and BEST FRIEND Divalicious.  It’s full of her favorite ladies from the 80′s!!!It was her 40th birthday and although I wasn’t able to celebrate in person with her in Memphis, she knows I was there in spirit. She is my very best friend. Ever since she was 10 and I was 7. Everything  that has happened in our lives have always been similar and it was she who forced me to buy equipment 10 years ago and to start djaying for money. Actually she got me my first gig. She named me DJ Diva and then took the hype man name of Divalicious.

She’s always been by my side! My biggest supporter and my biggest fan…she has my everlasting love. These are all of her (our) favorite songs to dance together. Yes, dance together. There is no one I’d rather dance with more than my sister so when you’re dancing to this Sis..think of me twirling you around. I love you! Happy Birthday!

Yup…you had to wait for this one too! I have been very busy at my job…which is managing a big academic office in a well known Graduate University. It’s the end of the year so I have all sorts of conferences coming up and parties to organize. I will end up taking a few weeks off from the Mixtress because of the job, plus I’m learning so much at the Scratch Academy I wanna start practicing at home more. With the new turntables and loads of records that I have to catalog…I will be quite busy!

So I’m gonna leave you with some funk to tide you over til I get back. I also have a surprise!
