A Milli

Everyone is feeling Lil Wayne right now. Like really really feeling him. So I thought I'd post Nadastrom's remix of A Milli for all y'all. These guys flip the whole thing. Bangin.

Download it now!

Izza Kizza - Kizzaland (Mixed by Nick Catchdubs) (zshare)

Classic R&B

DJ Soul created this mix for Puff Daddy to listen to while in St. Tropez. No really. And if it's good enough for Diddy, it's good enough for Deanne Rhymes (that's my motto). So check it out for a dope mix of classic r&b. You can find the playlist and more info at DJ Soul's blog Mic Check...

Seattle

I'm going to Seattle today. I thought I'd let you all know. Also, I know I'm a little late on this, but here is the new Kid Kudi mixtape presented by 10 Deep. Download it.

Kid Cudi - A Kid Named Cudi

Tonight

I'm about to head down to the spot and I just wanted to remind y'all that DJ Exile will be in Portland tonight. We're not blessed with talent like this every night here, so you all should hop in your Subaru or on your bike and head down to pi-rem for Heavy Rotation. Yep.

Wackness

I went to see The Wackness at Cinema 21 tonight (It's there through Thursday). I thought it was pretty good. Although the theme was kinda played out (male bonding and evil women blah, blah, blah) it totally brought me back to 1994. Rolling down I-90 in my girl's Chevy Citation bumping Biggie and Meth. Yea, the soundtrack was bumpin':

1. The What - The Notorious B.I.G. feat. Method Man
2. You Used To Love Me - Faith Evans
3. Flava In Your Ear - Craig Mack
4. Summertime - DJ Jazzy Jeff and The Fresh Prince
5. Can't You See - Total featuring Notorious B.I.G.
6. I Can't Wake Up - KRS-One
7. The World Is Yours - Nas
8. Can I Kick It? - A Tribe Called Quest
9. Heaven & Hell - Raekwon
10. Bump N' Grind- R. Kelly
11. Just A Friend - Biz Markie
12. Tearz - Wu-Tang Clan
13. Long Shot Kick De Bucket - The Pioneers

Damn, even though you probably already have all these tracks somewhere, it's cool to hear them on a movie.

Notorious BIG - The What Ft. Method Man

I'm Back...

Yay for you!! Deanne Rhymes is back from NY and Detonate is back in effect.

Um, New York is totally crazy. A few things I did...

• Saw Wale and Blu at SOB's - crazy packed and hot show. Wale played with UCB - a live go go band from DC
• Went to Brazilian Beat Brooklyn at Black Betty.
• Went to see a comedy show at Rafifi called Sweet Haven. Funny.
• Ate so much delicious vegan food - including a pizza roll, dim sum, and ice cream!
• Some tourist shit...Central Park, the Met, etc.
  

Here's a map of some of the places I went. Keep checking Detonate for updates - it's been a crazy week!

When Something In the Deli Aisle Makes You Cry

I first heard this song at The First Ever Experimental Filmmaker Karaoke Throwdown (which was oh so Portland and oh so awesome by the way) part of the PDX Film Fest and something you should remember to check out next year...
I instantly fell in love and now am a big fan of The Blow. With lyrics like these how could you not fall in love?

When you're holding me
we make a pair of parentheses.
There's plenty space to encase
whatever weird way my mind goes,
I know I’ll be safe in these arms.

The Blow - Parentheses
