Nabbed a Justo at the mixtape awards

The 11th Annual Mixtape Awards ceremony went down last night without a hitch, which was the exact opposite of what happened last year. I won Best Mashup Mixtape DJ, keeping the streak alive of winning a Justo 2 years in a row. Last year I won, Best Club DJ. It's an honor to receive a Justo, which is like the Grammy's for DJ's.

Hip-Pop Rock Star II with Diddy

Yesssssss! Just finished probably one of the Best mixtapes I ever produced in my career. Its called Hip-Pop Rockstar II. Its the 2nd one of the series, this time hosted by Diddy. Some of you may have heard or heard of the 1st I did with Tommy Lee. If you didn't hear it, its what most people call a mash up style cd but I call it Smash up style...its 80's, 90's and present day hits all mixed & smashed up but unlike you ever heard because not only are the smash ups already incredible but then I produce more music on top of some of them. This one blows the last one away. Its also done in association with E! Entertainment & the Hard Rock Hotel & Casino in Las Vegas where we are launching the biggest weekly party every Saturday in 2008 @ Body English in the Hard Rock. Oh btw, I Debut an exclusive bonus track on this CD titled "On 2 you" Written, produced & yes performed by yours truly & it also features my boys Pitbull & Fatman Scoop.....Hope ya'll like it...Get Familiar!!!!

Here are a few words from my buddy Kardinal Offishall:

"In a time when Hip-Hop seems as far away from the golden era as it could get, 2 music lovers came together to have fun wit this shit and touch on a couple of current topics along the way. The mission of this mixtape is to stir the pot a little bit and have people think a 'lil while buggin out to beats we all grew up on! This 'Do The Right Thing' mixtape right here... This is for the forward thinking listener, 'nah mean...' Some people say Hip-Hop is dead, Hip-Hop is alive, it's in the south, it's in the east, it's in the west, it's in the north, Hip-Hop is in evvvvery mother fucker around the world who love this shit, 'ya mean,' we have the power to make Hip-Hop whatever we want it to be, 'see what im sayin,' so on behalf Clinton Sparks and myself Kardinal Offishall we DO THE RIGHT THING!"
