The subject is jazz! The 26 year old producer/MC Dexter is taking an new look at the long going love affair between hip-hop and jazz. The sound design of Dexter’s “Jazz Files” is dusty, but with an unmistakable 2010 twist. Our Melting Pot Music fam has been releasing some mighty fine music lately and you know it!

Okay here’s the deal. S1 & Caleb did a slick ass remix of Young Money‘s “Every Girl” and Mar couldn’t resists to add some of his sweet, soulful vocals. Normally we’d never post any Lil Wayne related music, but this remake was so nice we had to. So without further ado, here’s the Mar variation. For those that also want the S1 & Caleb Remake without Mar just download HERE.

REPOST: No doubt you might’ve read about Georgia Anne Muldrow releasing her “King’s Ballad” album Februari 2010 on Ubiquity. Left to her own devices on Kings Ballad, she has come up with what her partner (MC and producer Dudley Perkins) describes as her most ‘pop’ record to date. Some of you might not embrace this album with open arms, as you’re used to the old Georgia Anne Muldrow. I do advice you all not to judge too soon and wait what this one has in store. We are the first ones to pamper you with a full song, no snippets! Let us know what you think of “Simple Advice” and if you’d like to support and buy Georgia’s music, please visit this tune or pre-order her album.

Just added the second drop for you listening  pleasure titled “Can’t Stand Yo Love”…
