In 2001, Nadia Ali was the frontwoman and principal songwriter for the duo Iio (pronounced “eye-oh”), who took the world by storm with their international smash Rapture.  They released a series of singles culminating in the release of a full album titled Poetica, in 2005.  That same year, Nadia left the group to pursue a solo career.

Nadia is notable for her distinct vocals with a middle-eastern tinge despite growing up in Brooklyn.  Her first album saw four singles released with the second Love Story topping the Billboard  Hot Dance Club Play chart.

Since that time, Nadia has collaborated with some of the biggest DJs in the world and has virtually ensured her position as the Queen of Electronica.

While some of the company she’ll be holding ground with may make an exception to the title of “Queen of Anything,” (watch your back with Miss Ross), there is no denying her status as the Diva of Electronica.

Party Favorz would like to honor Miss Ali by inducting her into the Diva Hall of Fame.  Nadia is currently working on a second album titled Phoenix and in all likelihood be inducted again at a future date.

Attention, if you have no clue who she is, download this puppy, hit play, and turn it LOUD!  I promise you’ll quickly become a convert.  ENJOY!

This is Diana Ross’ fifth induction into the Diva Hall of Fame. There is no rhyme nor reason why she keeps being inducted other than I was trying to put together a set that was more cohesive and concise without any filler. If Cher can have multiple Farewell Farewell tours (no, this time I really mean it LOL), why can’t Diana keep being re-inducted?

I believe I have finally achieved the goal I set out to achieve with this set. Then again, with all the new inductees, Diana always wants to make sure the other bitches stay in line and prove her authority over the newbies LOL. Ahh yes, Diana is a Diva for all times.

We all know the story about the Supremes, then Diana Ross & the Supremes, and then just Diana. It’s a familiar story re-told in the Broadway classic Dreamgirls. Fittingly, the show was re-cast into a box office movie starring Beyoncé (of Destiny’s Child fame), whose career eerily resembles the very same storyline of the Supremes.

Hey, I’m not here to cast dispersions on our favorite gals but Divas will be Divas and someone is always gonna come out on top. Pick your poison, but the Diva who screams the loudest and has the longest nails WINS!

Speaking of Beyoncé, I’ve got a shit-banger waiting in the wings for her latest induction, and folks this thing is gonna blow your socks off! However, I’m saving that one for the grand re-opening of Party Favorz coming out soon. Be sure to stay tuned.

In the interim, this final, FINAL Diana induction is a ball full of fun and you’re guaranteed to have a gay ole time. ENJOY!

This set is part of a two-set tribute to Frankie Knuckles.  You can view the Silver Edition by clicking on the link.

After discovering house music in the late 80s, it became an integral part of my life.

Along with Shep, Lil Louis, MAW, Todd Terry, David Morales, and Junior Vasquez, there was Frankie Knuckles, the godfather of house music.

While it’s disputed as to whether he created house — there is no doubt he was one of its earliest proponents and his influence in the genre can still be heard across global dance floors today and likely generations to come.

Frankie was to house music what bees are to honey; That is they both create sweet concoctions that arouse and please the senses.

There are already several tribute sets to the godfather of house music and I can think of no better way to honor the man and his craft than by offering up my own in tribute.

Frankie, I’m certain you’ll still be spinning in the great clubland in the sky and I hope to be able to catch one of your live sets one day.

And the music plays on…RIP

Your humble host has been under the weather for the past several weeks and is way behind in my posts, all of which have been finished for some time now and begging to be unleashed.  I’m trying to take advantage of the best I’ve felt in a long while so here goes…

In a nutshell, Celine is to a second generation what Barbra Streisand was to the previous.  She has an amazing voice that has raw power when it’s required and subtle elegance when not.

Canadian-born, she started as a French singer and by the early 90s moved into English adult contemporary pop.  From there, she went on to international fame and is a worldwide tour de force in and of herself.

Sorry, I cannot heap more accolades on this gifted singer, but we all know who she is, where she’s been, and all the hits.  So with that, I’ll let her fame speak for itself.

Party Favorz welcomes Celine’s induction into the Diva Hall of Fame with this series of dance floor hits and gay anthems.  As always…

ENJOY!
