I’m sure J*DaVeY doesn’t need an introduction. A few weeks ago a video popped up of them doing their own rendition of Nirvana’s “Smells Like Teen Spirit” and as a very special Christmas gift they’ve now put up the studio version on their Bandcamp. Can’t wait for more new material by Jack and Brook…

While outside everything is covered in snow, I thought it’d be nice to shine some light on a warm soulful joint. I’m positive that Dwele needs no introduction, nor does the track he covered here: Dilla’s classic remix of Spacek’s “Eve”. However, I still don’t hear enough people play this tune. Little is known about it, other than that it’s one of many many Dwele tracks that have never officially been released. So just sit back with some hot tea and enjoy!

Last friday we hooked up with Erik Rico and witnessed this Jamaican get down and dirty. His performance was banging and for all of his fans he decided to drop this “Make It Funky” James Brown tribute. Keeping this one short, cuz the flew has caught up to me.
