Yes, it is another Dilla Tribute mix…being that February is considered “Dilla Month” to us, and many others, how could we not post this one? Here in Los Angeles, we never get to hear a mix like this on the radio for the noon hour. There is one station here that you may hear a good handful of dope hip hop, but eventually our cd’s or Slacker Radio is thrown back on. Check out this live Dilla tribute by ?uestlove in the Throw Back at Noon Mix on Hot97.

This Way Back Wednesday we take you back to 1998 with one of my favorites: Big L’s “’98 Freestyle” off his album ‘The Big Picture’ released in 2000 after his death in 1999. Another rapper taken too soon, he definitely left his mark with the music he created in such a short amount of time.

10 years ago 2 DJ’s from The Bay Area got together and dropped a mixtape entitled ‘So Much Soul’. Since then, Vinroc and Shortkut have blessed us with 7 more timeless mixes. This past weekend marked the 10 Year Anniversary of the So Much Soul mix series and we were blessed enough to make the trip out to The Bay and celebrate with some really good people. The vibe was amazing and the music was just that. The night was filled with giveaways from Skull Candy and So Much Soul Clothing while Vinroc and Shortkut played non-stop feel good music for the soul, as well as hitting us with a Whitney Houston tribute set.

Check out the photos from Saturday nights celebration. We were definitely shown love out in The Bay and have to thank Vinroc, Shortkut and the people at SOM for that. It was well worth the trip.

Over the past 10 years, DJs Vinroc & Shortkut have blessed us with a series of mixes that have become more than just a mix of good songs. So Much Soul Volumes 1 thru 8! These mixes are a part of our daily lives whether we listen to them or not simply with the positive vibes and message they send with mixtures of Soul, R&B, Funk, Hip Hop, Jazz and all that feel good music! Although our name “So Much Soul” stems from the classic Common joint “I Used To Love H.E.R.”, it has definitely been inspired and influenced by these mixes as well. For those of you that have all 8 volumes of the So Much Soul mixes, there really isn’t much to say…for everyone else, you need them in your life! Go buy, find and/or download. We promise you will NOT be disappointed! ….And good luck finding volume 3!
