MAIYA PRESENTS…RENDEZVOUS-THE SOUL EDITION
The new year always brings massive periods of reflection for me. Not only do we all start a new chapter, but I have a January birthday, so I’m looking ahead and acknowledging my past simultaneously. I assess where I want to be, areas of life to improve and lessons to keep in my back pocket. I’ve always been an extremely deep thinker, and music significantly marks and highlights different seasons on my life.

Blind I is making some exciting changes this year and it’s beginning with revamping the way we approach our compilations. I thought about doing an Innervisions mix, because I’ve been playing soul music heavily for a few months, but I wanted to sprinkle this mix with the elements of Rendezvous (love, heartache, sex). So voila, a new baby has been born! Rendezvous: The Soul Edition. Some of these songs have a special meaning to me personally, so hopefully through sharing, they will make their mark on you as well.
I truly hope you will listen to each song and let them play all the way through (you know the old school joints take time to warm up). Think of how many good songs you’ve skipped because the beginning was boring?!? The slow cooker in this batch is “Higher My Love.” The way the vocals kick in out of nowhere at 2:10 and the build up give me the chills. I had a thorough singing two-step combo in my apartment when I first heard it. I tried to sequence these songs in a way that sort of tells a story. Listen to the words. Feel the energy and let it move you!
Cheers to a limitless 2012.

Sweet, Maiya. Thank You..n happy bornday
fresca de la puro
Thanks Greg and Noah!
Quarter party beats, coming up
Maiya,
Love this series. It would be dope if you threw up a straight rap Rendezvous, for when your sexy is more Pac than Teddy P. It’d be interesting to see whet your playlist looked like. And a cool addition to an already great mixtape series. Just a thought…
Thank you MJ3! I’m glad you like. And I will definitely bookmark that Idea.
