Lately, I've been on some 90's East Coast, Jazzy, laid back, etc etc....

[R-Tistic]

Back in December, this group on my campus asked me to DJ this event they had that required me to play more laid back, somewhat soulful, somewhat gritty, Hip Hop or Hip Hop Soul tracks...so I started goin through the songs and artists I had, and started finding more songs. Next thing you know...I started playin this style of music more than anything else I've been playin, and I'm still on that tip...playin everything from the early 90's East Coast Tribe and Digable Planets, to Tha Liks early days, to the mid-late 90's Primo sound, to the newer Hip Hop soulful soundin artists like Little Brother and Raheem Devaugn.

Some of the songs I've been playin the hell out of lately are:
A Tribe Called Quest - Find a way; Check the rime
De La Soul - Buddy (Native Tongues remix)
Digable Planets - Rebirth of slick
Jazzy Jeff and Raheem Devaugn - My soul ain't for sale
Little Brother, Raheem Devaugn - Don't you have a man
Nas - Nas is like; Can't forget about you; Made you look
Common - Doin it
Outkast - Jazzy Bells
Janet Jackson ft. Q-Tip - Gone til it's gone
Alkaholiks - Make room
Scarface ft. Jay-Z and Beanie Sigel - Guess who's back
Eric B. and Rakim - Don't sweat the technique
Jay-Z - Can't knock the hustle; Dead presidents
Kris Kross ft. Da Brat and JD - Live and die for Hip Hop
Mos Def - Mrs. fat booty

I know that some of these songs may seem to be a different vibe...but overall, most of them have more of a laid back but still upbeat sound to them. What are some songs like these that you all are feelin?
