Mary J. Blige & Weezy F Baby join Diddy on the official remix of ‘Someone To Love Me’, which can be found on Diddy-Dirty Money’s new album Last Train to Paris. I’m down for whenever Mary sings over a Hip Hop beat, so for this reason – I am on this remix. Yep. And of course, Lil’ Wayne steps up and shows em’ how it’s done.

P.s Mary’s next album better be the My Life throwback she’s promising. I need more of this.

Ross Harris filmed Aloe Blacc & the Grand Scheme live in the studio a while back, we posted them up – remember, remember? Well, during those sessions they recorded acoustic performances of ‘I Need a Dollar’, ‘Loving You is Killing Me’ and ‘Billie Jean’ – here are the out takes from that session, have a look see.

This guys voice is so nice.

Loads of Jamie XX going around, I’m definitely not complaining. Adele’s new single ‘Rolling in the Deep’ is perfect as is (and it’s video, one of the best I’ve seen in a while), but I’m a fan of Jamie XX, so always happy to press play on one of his concoctions. I don’t mind this still, my head is bopping – definitely still prefer the original though.

And, melt.

Nikko Gray goes in over Daft Punk’s ‘Night Vision’ and reworks it into an entirely new experience called ‘Beautiful You Are’. The track is available for free in celebration of Gray’s birthday (and here’s me thinking it was the meant to be the other way around). This is gorgeous.

Posted the snippet of this up yesterday, now we get to mess with the full version. Have a listen to Saadiq’s new single ‘Radio’, which comes off his new album Rolling Sound due out in March.

“Orgasmic Audio” is the second video released from MeLo-X’s critically acclaimed Mixtape “More Merch”. The video captures a sexy but sweet artistic vision exploring the body of model Danielle Phaeton, as she let’s the music take control…works for me!! What a great idea from Alysia Mazzella. I salute you! Download the ‘More Merch’ mixtape here if you haven’t already.

It’s such a damn shame legends pass before their music is celebrated once again but Mark de Clive Lowe and Sy Smith come more than correct with this reworking of Teena Marie’s classic. Play and download from Mark’s bandcamp below. Good music.

This is what happens when I have too much time on my hands in the holiday. A little Hip-Hop compilation of tunes from golden days gone by I put together whilst re-re-re-alphabetising my music collection (Standardly that’s how i roll…) Next on the cards is a UK Garage A-Z special….trusss! Enjoy and if you want more hit me up on twitter here. Tracklist after the jump….

Not normally a fan of the blends but this one works for me..maybe because I love both original tracks. Sadly no download but enjoy the stream!
