Coldcut - Colors of The Soul Vs. Lil' Wayne - Fireman

Welcome Mads readers! Today I'm serving up a track I'm especially fond of. Instrumentals courtesy of a fine English trip hop duo you may not have heard of, Coldcut. And of course, that's none other than lil weezy himself on the vox. It's hard not to respect Lil' Wayne, despite him fitting the "self-obsessed hip-hop twerp" stereotype quite perfectly. Nevertheless, he's probably the post prolific rapper out there, spitting out quality mixtapes left and right. I'm working with Back on My Grizzy, another Weezy track, for my next set and it's another mindbender. Just listen to this beat and tell me you don't wanna break something.

Take it easy people, and check out my back-catalog if you haven't already!

Whatchu Know About The Rain (Meteorologist Mix)

Fat Joe - Make it Rain vs. T.I. - What You Know About Dat

I'm a sucker for King Carter, and this acapella just slid into place on top of the mix. Still waiting to test this one on a crowd. I haven't really gotten a chance to play hiphop, given the type of gigs I've been getting. I'd planned on working with a west coast island-hop vibe for one dinner event I worked, but my Co-Dj convinced me to pander to the 80's crowd. I'd kind of been fantasizing about finding a right hand man to work with, but that definitely shook me. As soon as you don't have total control, it's very obvious. Shit sucks, but this song doesn't.

enjoy.
