Biggy Jiggy Mixtapes, aka Exclusive Tunes, is a highly popular illegal mixtape available through various pirate sites and torrent sites like Isohunt. The mixtape is released on a seemingly weekly basis, and contains mostly unreleased Hip Hop and R&B music. The amount of songs per mixtape is too large too fit a single compact disk. Though some of the songs are illegal to distribute due to copyright laws, most songs released are leaks that are meant to be free to the public.
The original Exclusive Tunes series featured 100 issues and was retired with the Exclusive Tunes S.G. (Second Generation) series' first release. The S.G. series is released in the same format the original Exclusive Tunes featured.
Creator
It is also apparent that the mixtape is based out of Montreal, Canada (see Website section below).
Song Format
There seems to be no quality standard. Some songs are labeled CD quality, while others are radio-rips. However, most songs on the newer editions of the series are at 160 kb/s.
Branding
users
Each song has been branded. Periodically, a female voice says "Biggy Jiggy Mixtapes..." in the background.
Anti Piracy
There has been no mention of the mixtape by anti-piracy groups. The mixtape's Twitter account has posts from artists such as Ya Boy and Souljaboytellem, both who are in support of the mixtape.
Website
A functional website exists for the mixtape where users can go to download single tracks, as opposed to an entire mixtape. The website domain is bjmixtapes.com. A whois lookup (whois of bjmixtapes.com) shows that the site registrant's name is Bogdan Jeglinschi. Furthermore, the following company name and address is provided:
