[MUSIC] Steph, The Sapphic Songtress “The Warm-Up” (ft. Substantial)

Peace World. Last Friday was frequent collaborator and close friend, Steph, The Sapphic Songstress’ birthday!  As a gift to her fans, she released a video which concludes with a surprise leak from her new project.  Check out The Warm-Up ft. Substantial (Produced by: Algorythm of The Stuyvesants). Joint bangs from start to finish and is one of my favorite Steph collabs. Take a listen and see why I can’t wait for our first opportunity to perform this live.  For details on her debut release, The SapphicSoul EP, which drops APRIL 3rd, watch the video below.

[MUSIC] Nujabes “Ordinary Joe” ft. Terry Callier

Peace World. In memory of Jun, here’s my favorite song he produced, Ordinary Joe ft. Terry Callier. Such an awesome remake! Powerful message, with beautiful music. Jun’s flute solo, gets me every time.

“Each little bird in the sky, is just a little bit freer than I.”

Rest in Peace, brother. Thanks for the memories.

[MIXTAPE] DJ Jav “El Mix​-​O Cuatro”

Peace World. I’m sure lately you all have noticed that I haven’t been posting as much over the last few weeks.  It’s due to my new gig as a Student Advocate where I work with Middle School students helping them stay on the straight narrow path.

The only downside to my new gig is the lengthy commute (1 hour, 15 minutes). However, I’ve managed to turn the downside into an upside, thanks to projects like the one above: DJ Jav’s El Mix-O Cuatro.

The mixtape is dope, front to back, and it’s just the right amount of time to get me through my daily commute. It’s a great mix of new and not-so new, quality Hip Hop & R & B and features exclusives from me (Substantial) & Homeboy Sandman. It also includes music from my DMV brethren Gods’Illa, Kokayi, yU, Uptown X.O., J $crilla, DTMD and many others.

A FEW FACTS ABOUT DJ JAV

• He’s my DJ
• He blended The R & R
• He’s the man cutting on Marcus D’s Fresh Preserves ft. Substantial
• He practically saved my life when I was in the hospital last year.

Basically, I consider this brother family. That being said, when you support my fam, you’re supporting me. View the entire tracklisting, listen and pick up the mixtape HERE.

Enjoy & pass it on.
