After listening to the excellent Triple Play Thurs-Day podcast Todd Grundy and his Co-Chef, Trelly, put together last month for the first mix called "Duo & Duets" I was eager to put my foot in it. Todd humbly obliged my eclectic tracks for this month's mix. Check it out, especially that last track!

FIVE YEARS AGO: A New Day, New Beginnings

2009-09-24T21:45:43Z

Here's a blog entry from five years ago today...

Guess who's bizack? I came back from Washington, DC last night and boy did it feel good to be home. It took me almost ten minutes to make it to the bedroom because the kids attacked me at the door with hugs and kisses. It felt great to hear them say "Daddy, I miss you" over and over. Mrs. KB and I ended the evening watching the special features disc of the Star Wars Trilogy DVD

Unfortunately I had to say goodbye to my mother-in-law this morning as she left for her new home in the Midwest. On Wednesday the rest of the family drove out west. She's flying because it will be easier on her post-op and all. We stood in the kitchen embracing for what seem like a millisecond but I know it was longer than that. As we separated and started discussing medical stuff I realized she was crying. Even Baby Girl asked her why she had "drip" on her face. I really feel sorry for those who don't have a close relationship with their in-laws. I think saying "I'm gonna miss them" is such an understatement.

I'm trying to keep myself upbeat today so my radio blog is nothing but maxi-singles. I went through a period in my DJ days where I had all the popular stuff on vinyl, CD, or both. So when I went in my home office this morning I just started pulling jewel cases from my CD tower where I keep my maxi-singles and remixes. I hope you enjoy...

Rest in peace to my mother-in-law, February 2006

Early 90s Hip Hop Part 1

2008-04-22T03:28:31Z

I've been in a 90s hip hop mood lately. It's been a cross divide between the early (happier) sound of things like Pete Rock and DJ Premier productions. The other end of the spectrum is that grimey, hide-your-chains-because-the hoods-are-coming-out music (like Onyx, Mobb Deep, and MOP)l So this week I made a "happy chappy" mix (what up Alain!). The hood music (part 2) is coming soon. In the meanwhile, enjoy Timbs Go With Everything, Part 1. If you like it, leave a comment.

Cupid’s Hunt: What Is Love (KB's Bleek Mix)

2008-02-14T04:14:11Z

Cupid's Hunt

“Cupid’s Hunt” (or CH for short) is a collaboration project of music podcasters and music fans in celebration of Valentine’s Day. On this day all of the folks who are participating have agreed to release and make available for download (MP3 format) a music and/or audio podcast with a Valentines Day theme. With this in mind you know I had to throw something together to mark the inaugural occasion. Special shout out to TGrundy and Momma Lis for putting this thing together. To all the other CHers, I'm not promising sensual seduction, jump offs, or babies by Christmas but I guarantee you my mix has the most music and will be up there for "Most Eclectic!"

So I bring you... "What is Love? (KB's Bleek Mix)." I hope you enjoy. Pay special attention to the lyrics. *wink* The songlist will be revealed later for those who didn't catch all the songs. Click on the first link for more Cupid's Hunt sites and music.
