Drake - In My Feelings (DJ Sliink x DJ Jayhood Jersey Mix)

While the internet was going wild with the #InMyFeelingsChallenge Jersey champions Sliink and Jayhood were busy bringing the bounce to Drake's delivery. Vibey, the Kiki cut gets kicked up a notch with thumping bass boosts and rapid-fire percussion. Sliink and Jayhood show off their genius with killer vocal chops, reworking them into an instrument of its own. You can almost feel the heat and see the strobe lights as this true club sensation spins around your head. Stream "In My Feelings" below.FOLLOW DJ SLIINK: FACEBOOK SOUNDCLOUD TWITTER

Missy Elliott - She's A Bitch (MikeQ Remix)

The internet was alight last night with a lot of people talking about Missy Elliott's performance at the VH1 Hip Hop Honors. Of course the honour was well deserved for Missy, who's proven that she's still got it. The "lil chubby chick from VA" continues to hustle hard, and I believe it's safe to say she is an inspiration to many. Further to that point, her music has inspired an endless onslaught of remixes, the most recent release coming from MikeQ. His take on "She's A Bitch" was actually made last year, but we can thank Missy's performance for this ballroom vogue flip finally seeing the light of day.

Now, I've previously written about MikeQ here, so perhaps you're already familiar with his work, and while this comes in the same vein as much of his catalog, the symbiosis between the two is truly a treat for the ears. Apparent immediately from Missy's shout out to Mike, the track ceases to be one artist's take on another, it's become a track worthy of standing on its own. While club music isn't necessarily supposed to be smooth or polished (and I'm not really sure this is), it certainly has a velvety feel. Of course it's more tuned towards the club via MikeQ's demanding dance disposition. Finally, as I was writing this piece I saw that DJ Jayhood, the man behind the Jersey Club flip of "She's A Bitch" that Missy used in her performance last night, uploaded that very track. See both brilliant bootlegs below.FOLLOW MISSY ELLIOTT: FACEBOOK SOUNDCLOUD TWITTER
