NYC's DJ K-Swyft - Milk Crates Pt. 5 (SVDJs)

A playlist of some of my all time favorite hip hop joints that make use of heavy jazz samples. Most of tracks are 90s hip hop with a few more recent bangers toss in here and there for the proper seasoning. If you need a tracklist you might want to study hip hop a little bit more first. 😂 Enjoy!

Nas Tribute-Recorded Live On TWITCH-September 13 2024

Talib Kweli, half of the legendary hip-hop duo Black Star, is among the most underrated yet artistic rappers. His songs often employ jazz elements and a wide variety of exotic samples, and his bars are always top-notch. This mix is for my valid hip-hop heads out there. It is hip-hop in its purest and most artistic form. Enjoy, fam.

This was the first volume of a DJ Quik mix set I did some years ago. While its been up on YouTube it was never posted it here. So here it is fam. 

Quik's Groove: The Best Of DJ Quik By DJ Ajamu

Minus a small couple of blips at the 21-22 minute mark....(blame analog to digital conversion)...this is one of my proudest moments.  It was necessary.  I hope I did the master right on this one.  Over 3 hours and I still had records to spare of his catalogue.
