When Hip Hop Married RnB is Aced Spade’s contribution to The Culdesac, the visual DJ mix series curated by Dallas-based DJ/producer Love Ave. Rooted in RnB but driven by hip-hop’s DNA, this mix lives in the space where smooth vocals meet hard drums, swung rhythms, and undeniable bounce.

This isn’t just a mix—it’s a conversation between two cultures that have always been intertwined. Familiar RnB records are recontextualized through hip-hop-forward production, blends, and transitions, creating a sound that feels nostalgic yet forward-thinking.

Shot as a visual experience, the mix invites you to sit in the pocket, catch the details, and feel how deeply these genres are married. Press play and step into the culdesac.
