Mixtape Monday: Wifey’s request

Sunday nights my wife likes to clean the house. Last week, I asked her if I could help and she said “just play good music for me.” I’d rather take that as a compliment to my DJ skills instead of an insult to my cleaning abilities, so I recorded the mix as well. She dug it the first time around and has been enjoying it since. I play a lot of R&B but I don’t have any mixes out, so here one is for your listening pleasure.

You’ll recognize everything, just classic tunes that my wife loves. For those of you who don’t know, that means a lot of Mary J. Blige. It’s un-planned, un-rehearsed, un-edited, and therefor imperfect—just a fun quick set to record. I threw a few drops in for the benefit of my boot-leggin homies who will have this everywhere form the Ashby Flea Market to the México City subway in 24 hours. Enjoy.

  1. SInce I can't download this, and I love it – how about having a disk ready for your sista when I come to visit in a few weeks!!

  2. For the divshare MP3s, If you click on "share" and then click on "link to MP3" it will take you to the download page, and you can download the mix! Sorry it is a little trickier than the hulkshare links I used to use, but those got deleted on occasion and I'm not trying to have a the kind of blog that has a bunch of dead links (although I know some of mine are, sorry and let me know if you see one).
