T-Pain - I'm Sprung (Work From Home Mix)

download T-Pain - I'm Sprung (Work From Home Mix)

In 2005, T-Pain turned the hip hop/R&B world upside down with the use of autotune on his smash hit I'm Sprung... from the album Rappa Ternt Sanga. The hit was a cross-genre hit, receiving accolades in the hip hop, pop and r&b charts. In 2017, I've crossed this one up with another big hit. This one from 2016 by the Miami pop group Fifth Harmony, Work From Home (form the album 24/7) goes very well with I'm Sprung, creating a sound that spans 11 years.

You can stream I'm Sprung (Work From Home Mix) right here and at djdiamonddog.com. You can also access the fully free download and even watch the remixed music video below. Remember, this heat is brought to you by the Modern Throwbacks Mixtape, which combines hit songs from different eras, making them appealing to all age groups.

The second single installment from the Modern Throwbacks mixtape features a 90's classic by the Fugees. Ready or Not (from their album The Score) was not only a hit in the US, but a huge success in Europe as well. Combined with Jim Jones' hottest track on his resume, We Fly High (from his album POME [Product of my Environment]), this blend takes on a much higher energy than the original version.

Take a minute and sample this one because it's guaranteed to please all ears. You can stream the audio above, stream the video at Vimeo or below and download the single here. The download link features both clean and dirty versions as well as extended intro and outro untagged versions for the DJ's. All in high quality!!

Don't sleep on this one or the Modern Throwbacks mixtape, which features this track and 24 other hot blends, including Young MA - Ooouuu (AF1 Mix). Stay tuned for more single releases from the mixtape dropping soon!!

Young MA - OOOUUU (AF1 Mix)

download the Modern Throwbacks Mixtape

Although widely known on the underground circuit, Young M.A. came through the mainstream in 2016, smashing everyone in her way, with the hit OOOUUU. OOOUUU takes the hardcore, gritty street sound (that is so often associated with hip hop) and added in lyrics complete with an uncanny amount of wordplay and metaphors, making it enjoyable to listen to. OOOUUU is from her first album, HerStory, which is available on Amazon and itunes.

As a proponent of old school hip hop, I found a beat ( Air Force Ones by Nelly) that worked to pefection with Young MA's already phenomenal vocal skills. Inspired from the Modern Throwbacks mixtape, the OOOUUU (AF1 Mix) is now online for everyone and the download features both clean & dirty versions as well as tag-free DJ intro & outros. If you like Young MA, I recommend sampling OOOUUU (AF1 Mix) and taking advantage of the free, HQ download for your personal music library. I've also added a video for OOOUUU (AF1 Mix) since I really enjoy it so much!!

I appreciate the support from everyone, everywhere. There are folks who show me alot of love for my mix releases and for that, I am blessed. Thank you so much. Another one in the books, and more to come soon!!

Modern Throwbacks

download Modern Throwbacks

Throughout the past 40 years that hip hop has been a part of American life, there have been a huge number of songs that have touched us and become timeless throughout the decades. Although the genres have changed through the years, most notably in the recent decade, there are still songs being put out that will be timeless in the next 30-40 years. The idea that all of these songs are great in their own way... with their own appeal... inspired me to put together Modern Throwbacks. This is a 70 minute mix with the theme of fusing older beats with newer lyrics and vice versa. With 25 tracks included, Modern Throwbacks will give you a whole new perspective of the songs included. Even if there's a song that you may not have liked, it will take on a whole new feel when combined with another song from a completely different era.

Modern Throwbacks is a must-hear mix for everyone. I guarantee there will be many (if not all) tracks that you will absolutely love. So, in the tradition of my uploads, please take a moment to sample the Modern Throwbacks audio and download the full mix for your local audio player for free. This is a new style mix that you won't want to miss and be sure to share it with your friends. Everyone should be bumping this one!! You can also download the mixtape here, which comes with each track as an individual mp3. All downloads are also available at djdiamonddog.com.

Eminem - the Donald Trump Cypher Mixes

Throwback Mix

Trap Mix

Three days ago, on October 10, 2017, the internet was set on fire with Eminem's BET cypher that took some serious shots at Donald Trump and his (non) ability to perform his presidential duties. The clip has been viewed over 25 million times in the past 3 days and has set off some serious debates among fans and critics alike. His jabs are serious and meant to influence people to stand up against what is wrong.

Since the cypher is a full acapella, I was inspired to add some background to it. I've included both a throwback version as well as a trap version, both of which carry the influential message fully. The throwback mix utilizes a classic beat from Biggie... Hypnotize, while the trap mix bumps hard with Drake's 10 Bands. You can download both versions here to add to your local music library. I've also taken the liberty to put video to both of these mixes. You can view the trap version of the video here and/or you can view the throwback version here.

 I've still got more audio in the lab as I write this. I've got some Ne-Yo on deck & some super tight blends/mashups as well. I'll be dropping more soon!! Thank you very much to all of you who support me.

R City - Locked Away (Hotline Mix)

download R-City - Locked Away (Hotline Mix)

Two hot songs from about a decade apart!! In the mid 2000's, Pretty Ricky (who were blazing hot at the time) released On The Hotline from their album Late Night Special. The song was a hit, reaching 12 on the Billboard Hot 100 that year. With it's sex-appealing lyrics, this song was (and still is) a favorite in the clubs. Almost a decade later, R-City released Locked Away, which was equally successful, reaching number 6 on the Hot 100.

Where else can you go to get the raw and real lyrics of Locked Away lined up with the incredible beat from On The Hotline, with a touch of 50 Cent as well? That's right. Right here!! You can stream Locked Away (Hotline Mix) right here or at djdiamondog.com and you can also download it for your personal collection here, too. Check it out and drop some feedback at my Facebook page or my Twitter page.

There's more new material on the way, including stuff from Jason Derulo, Ne-Yo and a throwback from T-LA Rock!!

Delinquent Habits - California (Mambo-Hop Mix)

download Delinquent Habits - California (Mambo-Hop Mix)

Back after many years off, Delinquent Habits opened up 2017 strong with the release of their new track, California, which expresses the group's love for their home state. This new track is featured on their latest album, It Could Be Round 2, which is currently available on Amazon & iTunes.

As requested by one of the promoters of Delinquent Habits, I have put together this remix of California, which is very abstract as compared to most of my remixes. This remix features a raw hip hop beat (as sampled from Rakim's Paid in Full, but with stronger percussion) combined with a Mambo sound featuring the trumpets as sampled from Lou Bega's Mambo No. 5. You can stream this mix directly to your PC and also download it for your local music collection. I also have a remix video available for streaming here.

If you enjoy the remix, please show me some love on my facebook, Twitter and Instagram pages. Looking to get something mixed up for a special occasion? Get at me. I can combine virtually anything you're looking for. Salute to all my supporters!! I'll have more online soon!!
