summer jams

inspired by a warm wknd in sf, this is a mix of summer jams n pop gems from the past few years, bookended by two dilla beats. bump this one in your jeep. songs include:

jaheim's ghetto classic "125th" (kind of tongue-in-cheek, but not really... i love this one, it reminds me of riding around uptown in the summer), daedelus, school of seven bells, TI, flying lotus, aloe blacc (oh no on the beat, sam cooke cover), STS9 better day//trinocular (Richard Devine remix), dimlite, and j.rawls with the brown skin lady instrumental.

classic material :)
enjoy!
