Album, song and event reviews, mixtapes, and radio shows, light the way to Enlightenment, conveyed by Oggie James.
I've been touting Nick Bike and his edits a bunch over the last few months but this 15 minute session live at Serato in Brooklyn offers the best visuals of why he's such a force to be reckoned with when it comes to the wheels of steel. He makes his way from under 100 BPM to over 130 BPM and sprinkles in the likes of Red Hot Chili Peppers, Snoop Dogg, Cardi B and DJ Funk. It's a pleasure to watch him work and just as fulfilling to enjoy his blends and quick cuts. His genius shines through early on as the acapella of LL Cool J kick in atop Rick James' "Mary Jane" proving he's here to do work. Later on, the run of "Gin & Juice" with "Ms. Jackson" to "King Kunta" is enough to get you out of your seat. Once you're up there, your jaw will fall to the floor as he brilliantly blends Jurassic 5's "In The House" with DJ Funk's "House The Groove." Finally you'll pass right out when you find out how well Cardi's verse on "I Like It" fits on top of "Fergalicious." Bless you Nick Bike, we are not worthy! Enjoy now below.
