I'm sure many of you have heard the father of Hip Hop Kool Herc is hospitalized and is in ill health and bad financial stress.  Unlike in many of other countries in the US health care isn't free. To help Herc pay for his medical bills there is an address for those wishing to make donations by check or money order:

 Kool Herc Productions
P.O. Box 20472
Huntington Station, NY 11746.

You can also donate by using Paypal by sending it to Herc's sister:

cindycampbell1@aol.com

Also DJ Tony Touch has related on DJ Premier's twitter (HERE) he spoke to Herc and is in good spirits but is in need of  surgery soon. So let's all send all the good prayers and blessings to Herc to help him with his speedy recovery.




Another thing fellow DJ/Blogger and part time filmmaker Pittsburgh's Haroon Al Qahtani has been living in Egypt for the past few months. At the time of this writing (Sunday afternoon) the Internet is still down in Egypt and although I'm sure he's doing fine. It won't hurt to send some prayers his way to ensure his safety in this chaotic time. Especially since depending how the mass  media presents the situation in your country things  aren't so smooth in Egypt for ordinary people during this uprising (Read Here) as it appears .

A true Hip Hop mix by a female DJ is a rarity nowadays. Sure there are female deejays like Lazy K who make industry Rap Crap "mixtapes" but most female deejays spin some from of EDM. It's rare for a female deejay to rock an all Hip Hop mix. With the exception of including a song by L'Trimm this is a great mix of Hip Hop by female emcees. Be sure to grab this rare real Hip Hop mix by DJ Roza (The RRS Feed).
