Fela Kuti's legacy of Afrobeat lives on with this new generation of artists, including Burna Boy, Teni, Rema, and Skiibii, who are taking the world by storm.

These are some of my favorite pop and rock songs to play during weddings—nothing like a good guitar solo to get you going. Sometimes mixes make themselves; this was one of them.

Welcome to the second mix in this series. Volume 2 is a very chill R&B mix to set the vibe you want on a low-key night. This mix has a little of everything; a couple of classics and a few songs that didn’t get a lot of mainstream airplay. There is one transition in this mix that gets me excited. I hope you feel the same way when you hear it. Please subscribe, share, rate, and leave me some feedback! How am I doing? Hit me up anytime at podcast@djferbidden.com. Andiamo!

Pharrell Williams and Chad Hugo AKA The Neptunes need no introduction. This producing duo has been making magic together since High School. To be completely honest, in doing research for this mix, I had no idea all the hits they created but once I strung them all together is quite apparent. Once you get into the mix, that unique Neptunes sound and instrumentation start to stand out, and its irresistible toe-tapping good! Listen to all the artists who shout them out in their lyrics. I am sure you will learn about one: too many artists, too many songs for one mix. I am sure there will be another. Please subscribe, share, rate, and leave me some feedback! How am I doing?

Welcome to DJ’s Choice. In this series, I will explore must-have songs that I can’t live without. These cuts are essential songs to have in your music collection. This mix is short and to the point; I didn’t want to add pieces and unnecessarily mess up the flow to make it a certain length. Inspired by the groups that came up in the New Edition era, these were the must play cuts of any inner-city dance or house party. These songs are cherished and remain popular today. Let’s take a journey together, shall we? Please like, share, leave a comment, and subscribe.
Well, you have to start somewhere, and this is where I landed—no rhyme or reason. Sometimes you have to stop seeking perfection and make a leap of faith. I thought it was fitting for me to start where my DJ career began; in the South! Some of these songs take me back to my college days, while others are only a few months old. Sometimes you just have to mix it all up! We will make many other musical stops around the world. Please share, drop me a line, and let me know what you like and what you don't like. DJs thrive off crowd participation. Without feedback, we can't grow as artists. Check back soon for another volume. Andiamo!
