D4L is this Seattle Hip Hop DJ's favorite Artist of the week. When I first heard "Laffy Taffy" it made me giggle. I like this song for its bomb lyrics and Bad Ass Bass.
Lady Jane DJ is very excited about their new album Down For Life. Another track I like from the album is "Betcha Can't Do It Like Me". It Rocks! Also "Do It Like Me Baby" makes Lady Jane DJ want to bounce!
The American Music Awards should have been called The Country Music Awards! When I sat down today to watch The American Music Awards I expected to watch The Music Awards of America not of Country Music. Don't get me wrong, I'm from Texas and I like George Straight. I love Tim McGraw, he's gorgeous and He deserved his two awards. But most of the winners and performers of the awards sounded like country music artists to me. Maybe because they were mostly country music artist recieving awards! I actually had a friend turn me on to some county last summer and that was cool but American Music consists of more than just country music.
However, 50-Cent did win an award for "The Massacre", Destiny's Child won two awards, Will Smith won an award, Missy Elliott won Best Female Rap Artist. But 50-Cent wasn't there to accept the award and only Kelly of Destiny's Child showed to accept the two awards they won. Missy Elliott and Will Smith were the only Hip Hop artists that showed that won an award and didn't perform.
Lil' Bow Wow and Ciara performed "Like You" together, that was the bomb. Mario performed with old skool gangster dressed dancers, that was the shiznit. Pharrell and Gwen Stephanie performed "You Got It Like That" and Gwen won an award as well, but I couldn't hear which one.
Maybe I'm just used to more of a hip-hop over tone. I don't think that I heard much bass thoughtout the show either. I like bass and I think that too many people are scared of it. FYI, bass is your friend. I think I heard more bass in the car commercials and in the commercial breaks in general. I heard some cool raps on the car commercials too. The American Music Awards was promoted with Hip Hop but most of the winners of the American Music awards were Counrty Music Artists. Again this is not a dis on counrty music. However, when I am presented with advertisements about the American Music Awards with Hip Hop Music in the advertisments, I expected more of a Hip Hop show not a country music show. Maybe if there were more county music in those advertisments I wouldn't feel so cheated.
Anyway Santana was featured in the show as well. Santana is and has some of the best guitarist performers in his crew. Santana is Bad Ass!
This Seattle Hip Hop DJ had tons of fun at the Premier last Saturday Night. For the coming week Lady Jane DJ will be back at her resident spot for "Stay Fly" at Jai Thai in Belltown.
Saturday, November 26th from 10:30 P.M. until 2:00 A.M. Lady Jane DJ would like to hear about your favorite Hip Hop songs. Hit me up at ladyjanedj@gmail.com
Jai Thai is on the corner of 1st and Blanchard in downtown Seattle, WA.
Lady Jane DJ is a woman hip hop DJ that focuses on current urban hip hop music. On this site we will be posting stories about; my gigs, writing about my feelings, thoughts, and issues on my favorite artist of the week, stories about other shows that I attend and many other interesting things to read.
I am one of the few of women Hip Hop DJ’s in the NW. I first became interested in spinning vinyl in 2000, after listening to local Seattle break beat DJ’s like; DJ Kippy, Little Miss Booty and DJ NAHA . When I first began to experiment with vinyl I tried Break Beats and House Music and shortly after became the resident DJ for the Wild Rose in Seattle’s Capital Hill. My once a month dance party, Butterfly Kisses, became one of the freshest dance floors for Capital Hill’s dancers.
I've done various quest spots at other Seattle venues such as The Baltic Room for “Make Out”, Neighbors for “Girls Gone Wild”, The Catwalk for “Girl 4 Girl” as well as The Premier, Noise Lab and Club Medusa. I've also traveled to British Columbia to spin at the Lick Club and other events such as “Essence 2002” a New Years Eve warehouse party.
I soon found that with Hip Hop music is where I wanted to be and began a weekly celebration called, No Panties Tuesdays! Most recently, I am very happy to say that I rocked the dance floor of The War Room and seduced the Hawaiian radio Hip Hop station 98.3 "The Bomb" on my trip to Maui!
Currently Lady Jane DJ and the G-Force are in preperation for performance at the Seattle Pride Sound Stage, coming up this June.
This Seattle Hip Hop DJ was very pleased with the turn out and the responce from the crowd at Girl 4 Girl! I was very excited to be spining at Girl 4 Girl after a long haitus.
All the ladies enjoyed the music and The G Force MilaAmor, SophieSoFresh, Shelbylicious, and The Ungnome. It was nice to see Girl 4 Girl at The Premier. The sound was good for most of the night.
I Lady Jane DJ had a blast a Girl 4 Girl and so did all of my friends. I always feel truely blessed when I spin for a crowd that I have a personal connection with. The Girl 4 Girl Seattle ladies were looking hot last night!

When Lady Jane DJ first heard that 50-Cent was doing a movie she was so excited that she framed the poster for the movie, "Get Rich Or Die Tryin'".
Before I saw the movie I heard reviews from famous criticts that 50-Cent couldn't act, the movie was not up to par, as far as the story line, or meet their expectations. Well I Lady Jane DJ don't like to critisize but will say that all of these critics are super HATERS!
50-Cent CAN ACT, HELLO, He is a BAD ASS actor! This Seattle Hip Hop DJ loves the movie "Get Rich Or Die Tryin'". I loved the story it was very deep and family orientated, but not like the Brady Bunch family. The cast was great which included Tarrance Howard from the movie "Hustle and Flow". The best part for me was that 50-Cent can act! It's very rare that a rapper comes along and can act as well. So for all you film makers that are going to sleep on 50-Cent poor you.
Get Rich Or Die Tryin' was an inspirational story about a rapper, 50-Cent. However, this story line can have a positive influence on anyone trying to make a better life for themselves in their current situation.
This Seattle Hip Hop DJ is happy that there are only 6 days left for Girl 4 Girl Seattle! The G Force and Lady Jane DJ have been looking forward to performing at Girl 4 Girl Seattle for months now. When I first got a call from Chris Chappin to perform at Girl 4 Girl I was like OH YEAH! The party will be going down at The Premier which is located south of Pioneer Square at 1700 1st Ave South in Seattle, WA. The number to The Premier, just in case you need to call for more information, is 206-382-7877.
