yes, she's an amazing dj if you like "classic" style house (as in the record label of that name run by luke solomon and derrick carter)
her boiler room madrid set from ~5 years ago probably the last boiler room i was real excited abt

i like the trick she does around 24 mins, back then seemed like a signature that she would use 3-5 times per set. i guess if you're going to use a djm might make full use of that silly "spiral" digital delay effect
there was a boiler room honey dijon set around the same time i remember being really good where the record skipped during a mix (idk if something bumped the stage, fuzz on the stylus or maybe there was a nick in the vinyl) and she had to navigate out of a massive trainwreck. at the end of the set she grabbed the mic from the mc and gave a somewhat defensive speech about the realness of mixing vinyl. i forget if that's this set, i think it's a different one, but i remember that one being really good too

her profile is pretty high right now thanks to the beyonce album.
anyway this one from the new album is pretty lush

i remember when finding this “edit” of “shades of jae” on slsk around 2010, well after it came out on vinyl. i was looking for green velvet productions, this was mislabeled as “dank” (since it uses the acapella). i don’t think it’s fair to call it an edit. more like they jacked the loop from “shades of jae” and used it as the foundation for a whole new rhythm track in the skippedy skip boompty house tradition
anyway i only learned this week that it turns out to be a very very early (2005!) honey dijon co-production
