Life's a Bitch - Nas ft. AZ and Olu Dara

tempo: 90 bpm bpm range: 85  to  90 bpm ,  90  to  95 bpm the dj's take: The final song in our Exhibit 18 mix (14:48): When old-timers talk about how rap was better back in their day, this is a perfect example.

Jump - Kris Kross

tempo: 102 bpm bpm range: 100  to  105 bpm the dj's take: Track #7 in our #20 mix (16:10): The official theme song of jump balls at NBA games, and a staple of 90s parties across the country.

SICKO MODE - Travis Scott ft. Drake

tempo: 69 bpm, 77-78 bpm bpm range: 65 bpm to 70 bpm , 75 bpm  to  80 bpm the dj's take: The leadoff song in our Entry 23 mix: This one is like the Neopolitan ice cream of music - three flavors in one. Makes sense for the younger listeners and their shorter attention spans. And as a producer / songwriter, you can take three half-finished attempts at a single, then mash them together to make a hit.
