Help me name a computer game!

So the university research center I work for developed a computer game as part of a safe-sex intervention initiative. I need help coming up with ideas on what to name it! I keep coming up with terrible, dorky ideas. Some info:
Plot: You play as a young adult man who aspires to be a famous DJ. You also happen to be quite the player. Depending on how you play the game (i.e. how safe you are on your sexual escapades, by wrapping it up, going to a clinic to check for STDs, etc), you are giving the opportunity to have sex, safe or unsafe, with up to four women (the more safe you are with the first few, the more women you get with). The ending of the game is either you end up landing a DJing gig that kick starts your career, or you end up with an STD, at least one woman pissed off at you, and no DJing gig. All of which, of course, also depends on how safe you were.
Gameplay: 3d computer game, the only actions you have are to walk around with the arrow keys and make choices during conversation trees with other players. It is eternally nighttime in this world, and the "world" consists of one square of urban apartments/stores/clubs (we didn't have a big budget to produce this so the game often leaves much to be desired visually/mechanically...) The game is also incredibly explicit, with complete nudity and options to choose various foreplay/positions during each sexual encounter.
Target audience: African American men, 18-24, who live in urban cities
Top 5 name suggestions during focus groups with the target audience: "Unforgettable", "Call of Booty", "Extraordinary Swag", "Pulse", "Rhythm of Love"
Current consideration: "Night Moves: DJ Edition"
Have any ideas?? As I said, I am awful at thinking of clever names. Any help would be absolutely awesome and most appreciated!!!

Also, are you sure that your target audience is not too old to play educational computer games and not being totally jaded about the message you are trying to bring across or the technical limits of the game?
sorry, trying to come up with a name as epic as the game sounds.
STDJ Hero
Get Your Groove On
The Erotic Adventures of Calvin "Viscount of Vinyl" Disc-Jockeyton
Megaman XXX
Prince of Pursue Her
Ninety-Nine Nights (But a Bitch Ain't One)
This one made me laugh far too hard. Either this or Call of Booty
Maybe you Can just squeeze all the names in and have a name for each episode of the game.
Name the Game: DJ "Jimmy" Hat
so Espiode 1 is : Call of Booty 4: Modern WhorFare
Epiosde 2: Girl wants in Initial D
Episode 3: Ninety-Nine Nights (But a Bitch Ain't One)
Herpes Dream Land
This sir. This. ... Or Call of Booty
-Current W.I.P.
Rags to Bitches 4 lyfe.
Also will there be a same sex version?
Name: "Keeping it Real" or Keeping it Clean"
To promote the game I would ask several DJ's to participate in a STD-test and tell their lives story.
