2011

Message / 2011 is self explanatory, this mix celebrates the upcoming year. I’ve released it early due to the fact that a lot of you all will be traveling these next two weeks or so and I thought I’d hit you off with some grooves for the road. This time I constructed a 90′s era R&B set. Have a wonderful holiday season, be blessed and be safe…

THANKFUL

Wednesday: November 24, 2010 Posted: Darien Victor Birks Category: Mix 16 Comments

Thankful

Message / Thankful gives thanks to the golden era of hip hop music (’90-’99). In my humble opinion, it was this era that solidified hip hop in the world of music…an emcee or group of emcees couldn’t be wack during those times, or their music would NOT have been played. PERIOD. I’ll leave ya’ll with that…on another note, safe travels, much love to you and yours this holiday season. Enjoy…
