ANNOUNCEMENT #3

2011-08-01T13:13:00.004+02:00

Like I said earlier, Aaliyah and TLC posts were deleted from the blog, hope you downloaded everything you needed. In a few days I will delete Linkbucks script from the page, so there will be some non-working links, I will reupload them all, just be patient :) Also maybe you noticed that gallery isn't working, it's because sosugary host changed their servers and and all galleries got deleted. I don't know if I make a new one, so I will let you know about it.

ANNOUNCEMENT #2

2011-07-17T22:42:00.004+02:00

I just wanna let you know that Aaliyah and TLC posts will be available to the end of the month, so hurry up ;) Also, I would like to announce that I will take a little break from the blog, that means less posts, because I wanna focus more on Just-Aaliyah i Ultimate TLC. But don't worry, I'll be back for sure ;) Thank you all for visiting and support!

ANNOUNCEMENT! BIG CHANGES ARE COMING!

2011-07-07T01:08:00.004+02:00

Maybe you noticed the lack of updates lately, but it's because I'm preparing to changes that are coming to the blog. The messages are 2, good and bad one. The good one is that recently I joined two amazing fansites, Just-Aaliyah.net and Ultimate-TLC.flirtatious.org. The bad is, it means that there will be no more Aaliyah and TLC posts on the blog and photos in the gallery. But don't worry, all the stuff will be reuploaded on the mentioned sites, I will work as hard there as here. For now, I'm keeping the Aaliyah & TLC posts, so you can download whatever you need to. But hurry, cuz they will be deleted very soon! As for other artists (SWV, Pebbles etc.) - nothing changes, I will continue to post their stuff. Maybe even so more features will come, who knows. So my dear Aaliyah and TLC fans, keep your eyes on Just-Aaliyah.net and Ultimate-TLC.flirtatious.org, cuz many exclusive things will come there!

Lisa 'Left Eye' Lopes 9th Anniversary

2011-04-25T15:14:00.001+02:00

It's been 9 years since Lisa's gone and she's still missed dearly. The world doesn't forget Left Eye, she was trending on Twitter, various blogs/sites also paid tribute, also I saw few videos uploaded on Youtube. But for me the most touching were twitts from my other idol, TLC's founder and manager, Pebbles (follow her @pebbles2day). Made me miss Lisa and TLC even more.

Of course, as every year, I also made something special for Lisa. This time I created a megamix my favs and less known Lisa's raps, check out the video:

LINKS INFO

2010-12-31T19:54:00.003+01:00

This is an info and instructions for all that have problems with MF, MU or LB links.

LINKBUCKS

When you are redirected from my site to Linkbucks, you should see "Please wait.." allert on the top right. When it change to "Skip this ad" (usually after few seconds) you should click on it and you will be redirected to the main link. Sometimes you will be redirected to Linkbucks again, it's because at first I changed all links manually, but later I added a script that automatically converts all links to LB. So links that were changed by me were again changed by script.

MEDIAFIRE
If MF link doesn't load for you (after redirection you see the empty page), just copy and paste the link again.

MEGAUPLOAD
If you see the information that the file is temporary unavailable, it means that the link is still works, but you must wait till it will be available again. Usually it takes day or two, but you must check it few times a day to catch the moment.

If you have any other problems or questions, feel free to ask.

MERRY CHRISTMAS!

I think I don't even have to say more, so sit back, relax and enjoy!

DONATION

2010-09-11T14:02:00.009+02:00

I was hoping that this day wouldn't come... but it did. I have to ask yall for donations to keep this blog alive (I must tell you that since I opened 'Favourite Things' I got only 1 donation, from my friend). I was able to buy even really expensive records by my own money, but since July I am not. Linkbucks is a really nice profit program, but since I joined (in April) I earned only 20$, so it doesn't help me a lot. Because of my finansal situation, I missed some auctions of really rare items which probably will not appear again soon. Even now I keep an eye on some nice rarities, but without your help I won't be able to buy them and, the most important, provide them to you.
I also have a special offer for donators. As you know, I upload tracks only in 192 kb/s quality MP3, but if u donate you can get them in a format and quality u wish (320 kb/s MP3, VBR MP3, WAV, FLAC). Every 1$ = 1 track from my collection, 5$ = 5 tracks, 20$ = 20 tracks etc.
Here's my collection listed on Discogs (take a note that I have some exclusive items that I haven't posted yet!):

AzzIzz Collection

TO MAKE A DONATION USE A "DONATE" BUTTON ABOVE

IMPORTANT!:
After making donation don't forget to write me an email [azzizz88@gmail.com] including:
- your name from PayPal or other source you paid (you don't have to have PayPal account to donate)
- amount you donated
- tittles of songs u chose with a format and quality u wish them to have
- source from which u would like to download (Megaupload, Mediafire)
When I get your email, I will send you a reply with a download link which will be active for a 7 days (ie. if I send you a link on 12th September, I will delete it on 19th September).

If u are more interested in videos than music, I also have an offer for you. Every 5$ = 1 video (high quality DVD/VHS files in VOB or MPG format). The rest rules are like above, after donating you must send me an email with details. The list:

Videos Collection

Donations will be spent not only for rare audio items (albums and singles), but also for rare HQ videos and exclusive HQ images.

Aaliyah - Ultimate Club Megamix 2010

2010-08-27T15:32:00.005+02:00

This is a club megamix I created for Aaliyah, it contains songs "Got To Give It Up","Rock The Boat", "Try Again", "If Your Girl Only Knew", "One In A Million", "More Than A Woman" and "4 Page Letter". I think it's pretty cool, especially if you take a note that it's just a second megamix I ever made :)

I also made a video for it, check it out:

I wanna thank every single person for your refreshing words, support, for all comments and messages I got - it means a lot for me, it's a wonderfull feeling to know how many people appreciate me and my work! And I want you all to know that I ain't going nowhere - blog won't be closed or anything like that - I just need some time to arrange some things in my life, cuz even physically I feel good, mentally not so. But I hope that soon I will 'back' to normal life - I feel a lot better now, also thanks to reassurance I got from yall!

Gallery Problem

2010-04-27T08:11:00.002+02:00

Maybe you notice that I didn't update gallery since some time. Well, it's because I have a problem with sosugary.com host, it just doesn't load on my PC - no matter which profile or webbrowser I use - it just doesn't work. I have no idea why and I couldn't find any informations, what is wrong. Maybe some of you know what could happen, because right now, I have no idea how to fix it.

ANNOUNCEMENT!

2010-04-01T18:41:00.002+02:00

Like you probably notice, I decided to upload stuff with Linkbucks, so when you click on the "Download" you will see an advertisments site. If you don't want to wait 15 seconds just click on "Skip this page" and you will be redirected to download page. I know that it may be a little annoying, but since I'm totally out of money, it's the only way for me to make some bucks ;) I wanna buy some rare records, but right now I don't have ANY money, so don't hesitate to click the links :) Also, since blogger is shutting down music blogs, these links make my blog a little safier from delete (I hope).

If u also wanna make some money, go to Linkbucks.com

2nd Anniversary Of Static Major Death

2010-02-25T13:10:00.010+01:00

It's been two years since Stephen Garrett, better known as Static Major, suddenly died. He was one of the best songwriters and producers, also a phenomenal singer. Thanks to Static, we can enjoy hits like "Pony" by Ginuwine or "Say My Name" by Destiny's Child. But the most important to me is an input that Static had to Aaliyah's career - "Are You That Somebody", "Try Again", "More Than A Woman", "We Need A Resolution", "Don't Know What To Tell Ya", "Loose Rap", "Rock The Boat" - there wouldn't be any of these tracks without him.

If u are interested in Static's work, you should visit Static Major Is Music blog.

It's time for some changes on the blog. Since I found a lot of people take my links without giving any credit or just asking, I decided to start uploading stuff with password. It means that single tracks download won't be available, but I think it won't be so much inconvenient. I will also reupload things that were already posted with some new tracks, so there will be an update post with it.
If u like a stuff from this blog and wanna share it with others, don't be lazy and upload it by yourself!

And remember the password, it will always be:

azzizz-favouritethings

Also, since Aaliyah and TLC posts are over 50, I made a new labels with their own music, pictures and videos to easier searching.

25th of June, 2009 King Of Pop passed away... It's not easy to write about it, cuz He was an important part of my life and millions of people at the whole world. My heart is completely broken and my prayers goes to the Jackson's family and every single person that feels devastated by his death. Michael wasn't only a great entertainer, brilliant musician, a genius, but also a good person with a huge heart. He will be live forever in our hearts and memory.

I LOVE YOU, MICHAEL
