Miami New Times Features "Live at Mokai!"

2009-06-08T22:00:00.000-07:00

"...We're more interested in what D-Up's been doing for us lately. And if the rad mix delivered in his just-dropped Rare Form: Live at Mokai! is any indication, he's doing much more than even we expected...The wild ride of killer sides is enough to make us forget all our troubles and get absolutely happy. And isn't that what party music's all about?" - Miami New Times

Hell yeah! The Miami New Times showin' love once again with a dope write-up. If you haven't listened to the mix then get on it HERE. But first, make sure to check out the rest of the piece HERE.

I'm lovin' that the fam over at H.O. featured my "Rare Form - Live at Mokai" mix cd not too long ago. I played with them at this past WMC and had a blast. Dimitris George, one-third of the crew, will be on the decks with me this Saturday at Delano so I can't wait for that. Until then, check out the feature HERE.

I know it's late, but I finally got the chance to go see Notorious. If you are a fan of hip hop, especially if you grew up during the golden era, this movie is a must see. R.I.P. Christopher Wallace.

Good Luck Chuck

Been going through a lot of my old vinyl lately. This joint is always a favorite from back in the day.

Krypto-Nate

2009-02-17T15:21:00.000-08:00

Say what you want, "he used his hand," "it was to the side," etc, etc. This joint is still ill. Don't front.

No Love Without Hate

2009-02-12T09:57:00.000-08:00

Truer words have never been spoken! I know some of my people remember this classic. Of course, I had to grab two pieces of that good vinyl when this joint came out way back when. Damn, this joint brings back memories of digging in crates and rocking out with my homies on the turntables in the basement.

You can't be in Miami right now and not have heard about this. Well, yeah you could. So if you haven't heard, now you know.

Who's Next?

2009-02-11T16:34:00.001-08:00
