that i took and it got me my set
Jan 21st 3pm-5pm and it was major,
plus i always knew man dog and the
shadyville crew yamean.
It sounds like you doing
good for yourself, On that note
can you fill us in on your mixtape
success?
I mean i have dropped alot of mixtapes
but when i drop imma make sure i
do what i do man im not into making
sure it gets in err store case half
these mom and pops stores are buying
10 -20 cd covers and the cd is free
( promotional use only ) but its
a hassle after u send it way outta
town so i ... have amain guy who
dose all my leg work and i only
put it in certain area's ...over
sea's .. and flood my city .. but
dont get me worng i hit the states
as well.. you know but i get hella
loveover sea's thats were the money
all you djs step your game up (
shouts ts pass port point dj onpoint
)
Haha you definately need
overseas love man. Can you tell
me how you feel about the current
Mixtape Situation with DJ Drama
& Don Cannon??
I feel its rediculous.. because
them cats are about they work..
and i feel the riaa shouldnt have
topuched them cats he's T.I''s dj
for cryn out loud an he made a name
by grinding .. they should be let
go with a smack on the hand and
givien an award for making hiphop
history.. cause that my friend was
a turned world wide situation in
48hrs... the world knew about dj
drama... u go figure!! For doing
what the whole world does and loves.
Yeh thats So true man.
How do you feel about the Mixtape
game nowadays, do you feel like
its Saturated with Trash DJs?
...oh my gosh yea...
u got internet dj's that got cool
edit make a cd press it and call
them self djs they dont even own
dj equipment not a gig not even
a radio show, nothing, and call
them self djs. Im booked 4 nights
a week with a radio show, all you
internet djs get a life..... or
get caned!! Imma serato pimp baaby.
Hahaha that was my next
question man i was going to ask
if you support Serato, cos some
say it has wrecked the History of
original Turntabilism and others
say its bettered the DJn industry,
whats your views?
I think is hasn't wrecked the histroy
of it, guys gotta understand its
a new time, a new day and age and
its better than dragging 10 crates
of records.. 4 friends ta help and
if your a real DJ then its better
when your traveling, hahaha..pow!
Haha no doubt do you always
bring a backup crate in case ya
laptop crashes?
Hmmm... nah cause when ur top of
the line and you keep a track of
your equipment like ur supposed
to.. you dont have that problem
... but thats a good idea now that
you mention it you never know...
Damn Straight, So tell me
man What Other DJs out there are
you feeling at the moment?
1st off... dj whoo kid // dj camilo
// clinton sparks // kast one //
flex // wetswood ( u.k ) // man
dog etc..etc...
I mean i like alot the real cats
yamean, not these "I got cool
edit so imma DJ" cats.
Whats your Favourite Mixtape
from another Mixtape DJ?
Soprano mixtape with young buck
and dj whookid, it came out years
ago ( cause thats when g unit was
at their best peak ) and the music
was hungry, there aggression was
stronger, and knowbody i mean nobody
is
fuckin with em so " GET BACK
"AT THAT TIME THAT IS.
Yeah that tape was a classic for
sure, now what is the process from
beginning to end for you creating
a classic mixtape?
Well.... making exclusives .."
BE CLEAR " making an exclusive
not getting.. when u can hit up
an artist and say " yo look
im doing this cd i need exclusive
make this for me or come to my studio
i need exclusive " when u got
it like that then ur good .. it
takes time from making sure u have
the right sounds , graphic's to
make it pop when it drops , some
weed, i gotta have purple when i
making my cd , and quite let me
get in my zone i dont need 14 cats
hanging around being loud nope..
but thats it man, im very fast and
can mek some hott shit...
Now everyones got their own knida
signature style what is yours?
I use radio imaging on my cds depending
on the style cd you know and if
you guys when ur done with this
interview goto the sudio section

imaging.. u know not many do it
but there getting the hint "
JUST REMEBER WEAR U HEAR IT 1ST"
NOT THE IMMATAIONS....
How do you say you can
support yourself as a DJ is it all
life of the riches or are you still
grinding?
Im always gonna be on my grind
but at the same time when u make
that money u feel like the riches
are there but really its more prob
just like the saying goes you know..
but i am on my grind baaby untill
i am jimmy Ivione i am grinding
baaby.....
Would you consider doing
any other style of music other than
Hip-Hop & RnB?
Yes.. i been doing some remix's

that but fuck it... thats what i
am doing next i heard a few cats
try it but i have ta heard a dj
