Because my life is just so glamorous Monday through Friday at the Moodswing headquarters, I decided I needed to hang with the little people on the weekend. So every Saturday I trek down to Borders Books on Wall St. and do manual labor. Funny thing about this past Saturday shift is that my two worlds collided. While sitting in the cage, putting those plastic things on CDs so that the hoodlums can’t steal them, I realized the CDs I was holding were the new Tyga release—No Introduction— and Total Club Hits mixed by DJ Skribble. It was a bit of a surreal moment for me—getting ready to shelve the records for the artists who I deal with on a daily basis. They should thank me next time they call—I made sure their CDs went on prime display in the store!
If you haven’t been able to catch DJ Skribble live and you feel cheated that you’ve missed out on music from one the biggest DJs of our time, have no fear—this Tuesday, June 10th head down to your local music store and pick up his new release! Total Club Hits is your perfect party mix featuring a collection of the best selling singles from Flo Rida feat. T-Pain, Rihanna feat. Jay-Z (the rare Travis Barker remix of “Umbrella”), Missy Elliot, Plies feat. Akon, Chris Brown, Baby Bash feat. T-Pain, Lupe Fiasco, T.I., Diddy, Shawty Lo, Webbie and many more!
Ok, I’ve never done a blog before, mainly because I’ve never had anything to blog about. Untill now, starting Thursday I started getting some major spins on 1 of my hometown radio stations (K104), a top 40 radio station at that. For those that don’t know the difference, a top 40 station only plays the top 40 songs out, pretty much. So for my record, "Now or Later" to be playing on it twice within 3 hours was big. Then we go to friday, the other hometown radio station (96.1 Kiss) plays the record at 1020 pm, then K104 plays is it at 1045pm, then back to Kiss with another spin at 1130pm!!! My phone was blowing up, (im deff over my minutes this month, shit!) Weekends not over!! Its’s just starting…ok now Saturday, Kiss plays it again on Mr. Vince’s show. By the time I went out that night most of the DJs in the area had hit me up to let me know they’ll be blasting it off in the clubs that they rock at. I myself heard it at Torches on the Hudson in Newburgh NY, and as its playing I’m looking around and seeing people mouthing the chorus……Shes a now or later, shes a now or later, you want it now but your gonna pay for it later…not gonna lie, felt pretty good. Then we head into Sunday where the Syndicated radio show, Full Throttle Radio with Fat Man Scoop and D.J. Mr. Vince played it to different markets all around the world. I finished the night off watching the NBA finals and seeing a guy named Leon Powe come off the bench and only play for 15 minutes but score 21 points. I guess theres a lot you can do with 15 minutes if you play hard!!!
The CW 11 found the best man for the job to help announce the station’s spring show line-up. DJ Chachi worked his magic at The Tents at Lincoln Center where Maroon 5 also performed. Making appearances on the dance floor were Tyra Banks and the cast of America’s Next Top Model, the cast of the new Beverly Hills 90210 and the entire Gossip Girls ensemble.
