As many of you may already know our brother DJ Hiro passed away on December 3. I wanted to dedicate this song I heard Hiro used to play at downtown Hip-Hop clubs back in the day. I’m also honored to be a part of DJ Hiro Special Tribute Party at Santos this Thursday. Admission is $10 and DJ Hiro memorial T-shirts will be sold at the venue. All proceed will go to his family. Please join me with many friends including DJ Kaori, Stretch Armstrong, Mark Ronson, DJ Clark Kent and many more.
1. They Reminisce Over You (T.R.O.Y) – Pete Rock & C.L. Smooth
2. Trillmatic – A$AP Nast & Method Man
かなりWu Tang サウンド、Method Manのファーストアルバム辺りを意識しためちゃかっこいいヒップホップ。現代と昔のヒップホップのコラボが凄く上手く出来上がった作品。こっちのラジオ Hot 97でもヘビーローテーションです。
Trillmatic reminds me of Wu-Tang sound, specifically Method Man’s first album “Tical.” This is the perfect example of great collaboration with old and new Hip Hop. This song is played on Hot 97 all day long!
3. Street Dreamin’ – Bridget Kelly f/ Kendrick Lamar
Kendrick Lamar is the man of the global Hip-Hop. Not a new song but “Street Dreamin’” is frequently requested by many club goers still now. I love this old school track featuring fresh new comer’s rap and female vocal that was almost a sure shot hit making formula back in 2000.

The king of EDM, Calvin Harris’s new electro-pop song “Under Control” featuring the vocal of Hurts’ Theo Hutchcraft is not a full-blown major hit yet but a perfect club banger. At American Music Awards, unfortunately Avicii took the Electronic Dance Music award over Calvin Harris as Avicii’s “Wake Me Up” still dominates the dance floor across the world.
Kesha and Pitbull have been on tour nationwide and worldwide and their chemistry is real great. I heard they even went to Japan and appeared on TV shows. I wish I could have watched it. A few months ago, I was so lucky to experience their show when they came to Atlantic City. My fellow DJ friend who was playing at their concert invited me to see the show. Kesha performed the first part then Pitbull did his thing for the second part but all I could remember was how cute Kesha’s guitarist was.
The track “Walking On Air” is an early 90s-inspired deep house-Eurodance-disco song. Katy Perry not only sings power pop songs like “Roar” but also can sing a classic disco rager like this one. She’s not just a pretty face. Her versatile vocal ability makes her a real super star in America!
