A lil transition I worked up from that one song that EVERYONE is playing.. STILL 🤣🤣
"THEY NOT LIKE US" into a surprise drop..
Its stupid simple, but dope in my opinion.. yall can use this one in the club if ya want..
FINALLY!!! (in my best Rock voice)..
When I first started DJing again out here in Tucson, AZ I was using a little Pioneer DDJ-SB. It was all I could afford at the time. It did the job. I was fortunate enough to share gigs with some amazing DJs here, but they would come with turntables and mixer setups. I will say I was suffering from gear envy.. so soon I was able to get a turntable setup of my own.
Now, many gigs and years later, my body and strength isn't what it use to be. I was wishing that SOMEBODY made a dope controller that works as well as turntables do. Then, like a genie granting wishes releases the DDJ-REV7. This was my dream controller from the first time I saw it.
This will make all of my gigs so much easier to set up, tear down, and rock the spot as if I was still on my PLX-500s and DDJ-S9. Cuts the amount of gear i need to carry literally in half. I have waited and waited, and now can finally say I am the proud owner of this technological masterpiece.
If y'all haven't copped this book yet YOU NEED TO if you are a true Hip-Hop head. It has EVERYTHING you know and probably didn't know about the culture and all of the people that contributed to it. I definitely recommend you grab it soon. presents "The Streets Win" is the title, got mine on Amazon!

YOOOOOOO, if you haven't watched it yet it's the best 2 1/2 hours you can spend reminisceing and learning about the dopest group of Hip-Hop.. RUN-DMC & Jam Master Jay. Fantastic documentary.

As I'm djing the other night, this girl comes up to the booth and asks, "Can I aux?" Is this a thing? Do DJs just let people plug in their phones to their equipment and let them play what they want?
