R&B Rewind: Horace Brown – ‘Things We Do For Love’
When Wu-Tang’s slick lyricist Raekwon dropped his ill ‘Stop Trippin’ freestyle over R&B singer Horace Brown’s album track ‘Trippin’ that we posted yesterday, it made me feel like going back & listening to a few other hot singles the Charlotte, North Carolina singer dropped back in the 90s. The 90’s was a great period for black music in general & Horace Brown had some dope ass gems with ‘Things We Do For Love’, “Taste Your Love”, & of course the very popular ‘One For The Money’. If you lived through that period in the 90s like I did I want you watch these joints to reminisce with me. If you’re just a little too young to know any better all you have to do is just pay attention & know that I’m putting you onto something dope. Check out the rest below….

DJ Jaycee – Eargasm 9 Classics (Mixtape)
One of the illest DJs in Atlanta, by way of Detroit, DJ Jaycee delivers a new edition to his Eargasms mixtape series with this special mix dedicated to the classic joints. I know some of you maybe thinking, “Not another classics mixtape”, but hold on…waiiiit up. There truly is a blatant difference when Jaycee puts these joints together as compared to your average dj who just got serato & a laptop full of music. Sharp transistions, scratches, some on the fly remixing of sorts using only the two turntables, Blends, & some dope diggin’ with the selections as to not flood the project with too many joints you may already be familiar with is Jaycee’s recipe. THIS is how a true classics mixtape should be done. Check out the complete tracklisting below, but i’d advise you to just turn it up & trust your ears like I trust his…….
