M.I.A. To Honor The Memory Of DJ K-Swift

Photobucket

M.I.A will be teaming up with Unruly Records to celebrate the music legacy of DJ K-Swift with the release of DJ K-Swifts Greatest Hits on December 9th. Both Shawn Caesar & partner Scottie B say "We are happy to have such an eclectic and versatile artist such as M.I.A to host this album. Swift and M.I.A share similarities that go deep into the appreciation of club music and the movement that Swift personified for that club sound."

Khia Edgerton departed this life on July 20th, 2008. As a celebrated disc jockey, entertainer, and producer Swift was influential in the Baltimore radio scene. She produced and co-hosted shows including the Neke at Night Show and the Big Phat Morning Show on Baltimore's own WERQ. Known as "The Club Queen K-Swift" She pumped out volumes of club tracks and Dj'ed at various local parties and with major celebrities. In the late 90's, Khia flew under the wings of Shawn Caesar and Scottie B at Unruly Productions and became a client signing to Unruly Records. Within four years K-Swift released a series of 14 "Jump Off" edition CDs through Unruly Records, making her the face of Baltimore Club music. She was also the CEO of Club Queen Entertainment and Next Level a management company responsible for the signing of Young Leek to Def Jam Records. Swift was a member of the biggest DJ squads in the country: the "Violator All Star DJ's," as well as the all female squad "Murda Mamis." Her memory will never be forgotten for becoming the face of the Baltimore club scene and expanding that culture throughout the world.

We miss you, Swift!

The Party Of The Year?

Could it be? Diesel and the grand finale of their xXx party series on October 11th promises to be a night you won't forget. That is if you can get in. I'm not even gonna act like I'll be there. Although I would love to see N.E.R.D. and M.I.A., I can barely afford to rock some Diesel shoe laces let alone a T-shirt even. I digress. For those who manage to sneek in, try to snag a little schwag for me!



Let's just hope that this party isn't anything like that Diesel porno flick that's been floating around on the net.
