Ladies and gentleman,the time has once again returned for another HEAVEN experience. As always we stay at the forefront of the party scene. This event we plan to pay tribute to the city that has been home to many of us from day one. Yes we are paying tribute to Atlanta Ga,USA.

Remember freaknic,remember the Bounce Night Club. Let's take it back even further,remember The Gate or even Esso's on a saturday night. This night is for all my Grady baby's,its for all my people who grew up in Atlanta and didn't just relocate hear. Well I'm lying,this party is for you all too. It's a night where we celebrate the sounds of Kilo,Dj Kizzy Rock,Dj Smurf,Playa Poncho,Usher, TLC,Ciara,Keri Hilson,Jermaine Dupri,Xscape,Jim Crow,Lil Jon,Bone Crusher,Pastor Troy. I can go on for days,but I'm sure you all get the picture.

Come rock with us as we put on for our city. In true A-town fashion,we went and got a true A-town dj...DJ HERB! Oh yeah,we are going heavy on the Outkast,Goodie Mob,So So Def Bass-Allstars.

All ladies feel free to RSVP now @ HEAVEN.ATL@GMAIL.COM for free admission before 11pm.

SADE MIXTAPE

DJ JELLY VS. DJ SMURF MIXTAPE

What's the word my good peoples. Hope you all had a wonderful memorial day weekend. Mine was spent on the road with Keri Hilson. We hit 3 cities in as many days(Greensboro,Atlantic City,New York City).

While I was in New York I made it my job to listen to both radio stations(Power 105 and Hot 97). Both stations were featuring a memorial day megamix,and I can't lie both stations were killing it. Sometimes when I come to NY and listen to the radio I get dissapointed,but not this trip. Every dj on every station was going in. I loved the diversity on air,they went from the hoodest of the hood records to the Pussy Cat Dolls. How come Atlanta radio can't be that diverse,especially on big mixshow weekends.

Now for the mixtape side of things. Some dj's may not have the name of a Kid Capri or Clue,but they still may end up being one of your favorites. That title fits when it comes to describing my man DJ SPINNA. Repping Brooklyn to the fullest,SPINNA is no stranger to the game. He's been killing the house remix side for a minute,now he dropped a timeless best of Sade mixtape. As always,download now and thank me later.

We have been dropping little hints about our next Heaven event. We have been slowly letting the cat out of the bag,but now its time to go full steam ahead. Friday June 5,THE HEAVENLY RENAISSANCE CREW PRESENTS...Forever I Love Atlanta(F.I.L.A.). That's right ya'll, we are doing it for the home team. We are doing it for the city we all come to know as home. We are doing this one for all my Grady Babies,all my Atliens.

Musically Atlanta has contributed so much to the game. From Cameo to Outkast,from Joy to Jeezy. From Ludachris to Left eye,from Usher to Gucci Mane. Yup,next friday we are going all the way in. Expect more details and more excitement from the crew you all love. But most importantly I expect to see you all at "THE HEAVENLY RENAISSANCE PRESENTS...FOREVER I LOVE ATLANTA". Next friday,june 5 at 595 North Lounge

Look what happens when hip hop opens up its creative mind. Two of the best mc's on the planet. Did you notice how i didnt say hottest mc's...we will leave that word for the wack to use.

What's good party people,its another week and www.historyofmixtapes.com is back in the building. This week we have two featured mixes. One from Kid Capri and the second from Dj Trauma. Both of which are well worth the download,so get you're ipods ready.

When you talk about mixtapes you have to include radio shows as well. I'm not sure what it was like in any other city,but a copy of a new york hip hop radio show was more than worth its weight in gold. Thanks to my man Al Lindstrom,I got my hands on this classic Kid Capri tape from WBLS.

The tape was recorded in the early 90's,92 I believe. After listening to this tape I can clearly see the difference between 98.7 KISS and WBLS. Although 'BLS had the better stable of dj's,KISS had more personality on the air. It had to be hard as hell for Red Alert to compete against Marley Marl,Mr. Magic,Pete Rock,Kevy Kev,Clark Kent,Kid Capri and Ron G. Kid Capri has mad personality,by this time he was murdering HBO'S DEF COMEDY JAM. But on the radio the powers that be wouldn't let his personality shine. When you listen to the mix you will hear very few drops to signify who is rocking. Regardless of that,the value is actually owning a rare Kid Capri WBLS radio mix. And because of my good friend Al Lindstrom and www.historyofmixtapes.com you now do.

Happy wednesday folks,and yup you guessed it. Its time to hear my random thoughts. I've gotten a lot of positive feedback on my email campaign lately. Thank you to all who read what I have to say as opposed to just downloading the tapes I push out. Thanks to all the websites who post what I write and put out there,but still give me credit. Thanks to the homie DJ SENSE for the invite to do my first interview on Shade 45. By next weeks blast I will have the entire interview up for your listening pleasure.

Last weeks e blast listed a few things I felt was wrong with Atlanta's nightlife. Well this week I'm going to do a list 5, of what I consider to have been the, top clubs in the city. I know some of you are going to argue my point,I hope you do. But for now,read on.

My list is in no particular order by the way:

1-Club Fritz//559(Ashby st):: One of the gulliest clubs on the planet,but if you were from any hood in the A you had to be there. Historically it was the first club I ever spun in,I only spun there twice. But Dj Jelly and them had that place on fire.

2-The Warehouse//Pheonix:: You could put there friday night up against any hip hop party, any where in the country. One of the best venues for a real hip hop show. Everyone performed there(A Tribe Called Quest,BIG,Craig Mack,Luke,Blackmoon,Lost Boyz,Kid Capri,Ron G). I was a spectator back then,I couldn't compete with Lil Jon,Searcy,Dose,Sol Messiah,Shakim,none of them.

3-Soho:: From fall of 94-95(Spring),this club was the shit on Thursday nights. I feel like this club started the hip hop ballin that goes on now. Everyone partied there,and partied hard. Favorite memory was the night of the Brat's "Give it to you" video afterparty. Everyone who was in the video was at the party...oh yeah,and I had Mary dancing on the tables.

4-Atlanta Live:: This club made everyone feel like a star,for real. Trauma and DC used to spin there on saturday nights,it was a problem. The baddest chicks in the south used to party there,no joke. Live performances by Prince,Heavy D,Nas,Foxy Brown,you name it they partied there. And the women,omg!

5-Kaya//Chilli Pepper:: I can't disrespect any of these places,they are the last true hip hop clubs that Atlanta has seen. Let's start with the Chilli Pepper,every Tuesday night it was popping. Real dj's,real party people and a whole lot of fun. It was the spot where Kid Capri came to party when he was intown,I know cuz I was dj'ing when he walked in the club. It was the spot that made Nas give an impromptu performance. I know because I was on the wheels. Thanks to the Midnight Marauders crew.

Now Kaya was a whole 'nother animal. The best dj line up I have ever seen in my life. Oh,you wanna argue? Put a team together that actually was on the same bill each and every sunday...DJ NABS,KEMIT,DOC,JAY CEE, and me...DJ MARS. Excuse my language,but who is fucking with that...um,ill wait til you try and figure it out...NOONE STUPID! Hip hop partying at its best,remember we had Jay Z,Run Dmc,Whodini,Dmx,Ja Rule, Jazzy Jeff,and that's just who I remember.

If the list went to 10 clubs I would add the following::

Visions

Essos

The Bounce

Flavors//The Atrium

The original Velvets

We got a lot of history hear folks,stay with me. And now for the mixtape portion of the e blast. How many of you all know the name of EPMD'S first dj. Take a second to think...um,for you so called hip hip heads its DJ K-LA BOSS. How many of you know the name of Lil Waynes dj...um think hard now,its DJ 4-5. How many of you know that's the same person...I'm sure none of you. Do your homework. My man 4-5 aka DJ K-LA BOSS aka I've been the # 1 tour dj on the planet since 1987 is still smashing em and still releavant in this world we call hip hop. I know because I've been on several tours with him.

Every tour he's one he come through with a batch of flavorful mixtapes. Today I dug up one of my favorites..."THE MAKINGS OF YOU...THE BEST OF PETE ROCK AND CL SMOOTH". Nothing but pure mc'ing and dj'ing right here yall. If you've forgotten PR and CL's contribution to hip hop,well here you go. As I always say,download now and thank me later.
