New Mixtape: Summer Jams 2011

DJ Diva — Tue, 26 Jul 2011 06:28:05 +0000

It’s seems like forever since I made a mixtape for the mixtress. Heck it’s been even longer since I did a new music mixtape. I’ve knee deep in old school over on TV One working their Unsung series. I’ve done a lot of mixes for them and hopefully soon I can post them here for your listening enjoyment.

But back to this mixtape..

I have been jamming to some of these songs since May so I hope you indulge me in some of my song choices. I have the pleasure of including some new tracks by Syleena Johnson and Kindred The Family. I’m the Mixtress of R&B so of course I have Jill Scott, Beyonce, Chris Brown, Monica and Tyrese. Although the mix is R&B flavored, I have some hip hop included like that new song Otis by Jay Z and Kanye, some Frank Ocean, Big Sean and J.Cole. I’m sure this mixtape will make you dance so I put in some dance tracks by Pitbull and a new jam “Titanium” from David Guetta featuring Mary that is HOT even with the tags. For my Reggae massive I have some Rhianna, Movado, Elephant Man and a great tune from Melanie Fiona. I got some slow jams too: this mix reminds me of those old school Hot 97 bootleg cds lol

I hope you enjoy this mix and I’ll try to be back with you soon!!

New Mixtape: Best of 2010 with TSR

DJ Diva — Tue, 04 Jan 2011 01:27:17 +0000

Hey Everybody…it’s the Mixtress of R&B! I hope you had a great time on New Year’s Eve…I was putting together my best of 2010. I’m starting it out with Fuck you by Ceelo and ending it with Runaway..pretty much sums up my life in 2010! After all..I did play majority of these in my mixtapes throughout the year…I also did this mix as a collabo with another site: The Soul Reservoir …I am “Your Favorite Blogger’s, Favorite DJ”

The Soul Reservoir

Recently, I G-Chatted with the one and only Mixtress of R&B, DJ Diva, a little while ago wanting to know if I’d like to share one of her great mixes with TSR’s readership. Now, I couldn’t very well contact you all and ask you personally but I’m pretty sure you’d want it. So on your behalf, I quickly and happily accepted.

Diva shot the links over and we checked it out all while typing this up and throwing together a quick artwork for the files. The entire mix is compiled of all the tracks from last year that made the majority of the noise in those nighttime meeting places and venues, as well as just plain old smash hits. Now you know full well that I don’t normally cater to commercial anything, but this mix has a good bit of tracks that got heavy rotation which I did enjoy whenever the rarity of a terrestrial radio station was playing within earshot.

Plus it’s a DJ Diva mix!! With her being ”Your favorite blogger’s favorite DJ“, and being well known for her Monday Mixtape series, also in addition to recently being featured on SOULBOUNCE as their first female Mixologist, how could I pass this up?

In true DJ Diva fashion she has provided links to a Lo-Fi version that while is FREE and sounds dayum good, won’t make your speakers thump as much as the Hi-Fi version which we’ll be hosting on Bandcamp for a penny short of a whole dollar.

Considering the economy, thats not a bad deal. Plus if you were to buy all these tracks separately, in CD Quality and on the iTunes, it would run you $26 but hey, we’ll let you do your own math.

So hit the following links, get to downloading and enjoy the mix as a nice way to say goodbye to 2010 and hello to 2011.

(Well without bragging…Enjoy the last mixtape from me in 2010 (well enjoy it in 2011 which is about right! lol)

Monday Mixtape: Fall Jams 10/10 (New Music)

DJ Diva — Mon, 18 Oct 2010 17:52:35 +0000

Hey Everybody! This is a New Music Monday Mixtape. It’s a compilation of the songs my twins daughters requested for their birthday mix and some new songs that have come out that I just love to death! The first being the new track from El Debarge and Faith Evans. While I’m not a fan of Faith’s new album (because I feel like she could have used better producers for her phenomenal voice) this new track “Lay With You” is a winner! I really wanted to put more Eminem because I’m in love with his new album “Recovery” (and wouldn’t you know he released a new version of “Love The Way You Lie” after I made this mix…RATS!) Trey Songz is being herbed for his new mixtape: both Raheem DeVaughn and R. Kelly remade two of the best songs on the mixtape, although I couldn’t include Kells version of “Already Taken” because I couldn’t score a clean copy (shakes fist).

If you haven’t noticed I am a BIG Drake fan and my daughters are BIG Nikki Minaj fans. It’s so cute. My girls barely used to watch videos and now they know all the lyrics to rap songs. So cute to see them develop their musical tastes and it’s rubbed off on me! I’m rapping as hard as they are to her songs and contorting my head and facial expressions. I know…I’m a mess! Love Love Love the new T.I. with Chris Brown. It’s a great song for both of them considering their legal troubles “My Road to Redemption Has No GPS!” WORD!

I hope you enjoy the mix and thanks for waiting so long for this one!

Monday Mixtape: June Jackin Pt5

DJ Diva — Mon, 07 Jun 2010 17:08:54 +0000

Hey Everybody! This is June Jacking Part 5! It should be called the Drake Edition because of course I love his new album!

I call it June Jacking because when I started hustling mixed cds 7 years ago…it was really jacking the net for music then. I would spend hours searching for songs and uploading songs from my cds…just a long drawn out process!

Things are easier now with places like Limewire and Dopehood.com (love yall!) When I need new music now I tend to head over to Eb-the Celeb‘s site or YouHeardThatNew (although I don’t mess with rap that much). My new music mixes are generally more on the hiphop side and probably not safe for children under 11. Play at your own risk!

I hope you enjoy it!

Hey Everybody! It’s time for a new music mixtape again. I’m still playing the one I did in December (I said that last year too lol). March Madness Part 2. It should be called “Radio Friendly” because a lot of these songs are being played on the radio right now. There is a new track by Mary J. Blige and Swizz Beatz called “Fancy” that I am just in love with. I was unable to get a clean copy but I didn’t care! Thanks Tapemasters Inc anyway!

My favorite mix moment was between #8. I Come First – Ne-Yo and #9. Freak – Estelle Ft. Kardinal Offishall. I just grin every time I hear that part of the mix. I’m also diggin that song “Miss Chocolate” by Lil Jon, R. Kelly and Mario and the new J. Holiday song “Pretty Body”. I’m still loving the Untitled Album by R. Relly and it’s always nice to hear a new tune by John Legend (Thanks EbTheCeleb!) A few minor glitches but I love the mix and I hope you will too!

Monday Mixtape: The King of the Remix – R. Kelly

DJ Diva — Mon, 07 Jul 2008 20:23:49 +0000

I read a post recently by DJ Stylus where he said that he refuses requests to play R. Kelly while he’s spinning. He based it on how he felt about R. Kelly’s troubles with the law and his fondness for young girls. Now while I understood how he felt, I also thought that it was a little harsh. After all, music is music. No one stopped playing Michael Jackson because he liked little boys. We didn’t stop listening to Whitney Houston because she smoked crack and we also loved Biggie although he sold it. I personally don’t look at the personal lives of artists to enjoy their art. If we did, we probably wouldn’t look at any paintings or listen to any music because we all know that artists tend to have pretty messed up lifestyles or desires.

That said, while I was thinking of these things the idea of R. Kelly as the King of the Remix began to form in my head. As I went through my mental discography, I kept coming up with more hits done by the R. Of course I put them all together and this mixtape was born. Say what you want but R. Kelly consistently gives us good music. Well good in my eyes. Sure most of it has x-rated lyrics or sexual undertones…but that’s what we’ve always loved about him right? Well these are some of my favorites:

Track Listing

1. Fiesta Remix (DJ Clue Mix)- R.Kelly
2. Hotel (Remix) – Cassidy Feat. R Kelly
3. Girlfriend Remix – B2k Feat R. Kelly
4. We Takin Over (Remix) – R. Kelly

Monday Mixtape: April Rain

DJ Diva — Mon, 07 Apr 2008 22:27:42 +0000

Hey Everybody!

It’s time for the Monday Mixtape! Early even…

This week’s mix is entitled April Rain. It’s a bimonthly compilation of the tracks that I’m digging from March and April. I would love to do this once a month, but what’s being released isn’t the best stuff I’ve heard. So I put together the best I could find (in my opinion of course).

You have probably heard my new moniker “The Mixtress of R&B”. It is part of my migration to my own domain (themixtress.com) which is being worked on. When I release it I will let you guys know. Also part of the new domain will be new features for everyday of the week. The rundown will be as follows:

Mixtape Mondays – Dance music and new music posts (Full Mix)
Tasty Tuesdays – Independent artists (Quick Mix)
Worldwide Wednesdays – News and music from around the world (Quick Mix)
Old School Thursdays – Artist Spotlights (Full Mix)
Freaky Fridays – Anything goes (Quick Mix)

As my girl Nikki says “It doesn’t matter which day you post a podcast as long as it’s hot!”

I put up a donation button because honestly, it’s costing me a pretty penny to share the mixes for free. You guys love them so much and I’m glad for the support and the love, but drop a dollar when you can in the donation box to help pay for the hosting. Thanks!

Here’s the mix…I hope you enjoy it!
