The Love Movement Mixtape Volume 2:  Love From The Soul - Mixed by @Haylow (Recorded in 2007)

I'm departing mix posting game with a mix of twenty-five of my favorite tracks produced by J Dilla the GOAT. I intentionally didn't provide the tracklist because yall really do need to just get everything this brother ever produced. His MPC machine is currently preserved at the African American Museum in Washington, DC. That's how important his legacy is. I truly appreciate all of the comments, support, and likes that you all have given me on all of my mixes family. But all good things must come to an end:) Much love. Yours truly, DJ Ajamu.

Mashups and Originals of some of my favorite Q-tip tracks. Enjoy!

Kiss-n-Grind Podcast Volume One

"Raphael Saadiq is the Neo Soul and R&B producer, arranger and songwriter of a generation, yet criminally unsung. I simply wanted to shine a light on known, and some unknown, involvement of his in music over the years, from uptempo Soul of his own to his signature Two Step sound. 

Raphael's solo work needs no introduction, having redefined his sound over the years, remaining consistently current without loosing his era-defining, Soulaquarian-Neo-Soul feel. But his work with others artists is fascinating, linch-pinning so many killer R&B records whilst remaining forever background and humble.

There is a fascinating story told by Solange Knowles, of a misplaced Saadiq beat CD, which eventually lead to the makings, Grammy Award winning, Cranes In The Sky (Song Exploder, 2017). The Grammy captures Raphael’s nature perfectly, by not attending and opting out of the limelight. 

'I’ve been fortunate to work with both a Mick Jagger and a Kendrick Lamar, I’ve seen all sides. In terms of legacies, I just want people to look at the way I put music together and say he was a bad, bad man… But if they say nothing, I’m happy with that too.' (Raphael Saadiq, Hobbs / Quietus, 2017)

In an age of pop superstars and egos, it’s heartwarming seeing someone who’s intrinsic to the music we love, so down to earth. For the heads, there is an obvious exemption of any Ummah records, of which Raphael was an occasional member, however with exact individual involvement on each Ummah record such a grey area, that tribute mix alone is best saved for another time..."

Tribute to RAPHAEL SAADIQ - Selected by Russ Ryan

To get you warmed up for the verzuz battle

Jill & Erykah: The Warm Up

I don’t know if I have EVER played a deejay set that didn’t feature at least a few songs from The Soulquarians (The Roots, D’Angelo, Common, Erykah, Dilla, etc).

During this quarantine, I really found myself digging into the (digital) crates for more exclusive and interesting versions of these songs.

Low and behold, I had a LOT of dope sh*t in my computer… especially the D’Angelo remixes.

In honor of his amazing VERZUZ performance at The Apollo,  I decided to put together a little set for you.  

All remixes / rarities / good vibes.

I hope you like it as much as I do.
