Love From The Past Dj X Scratch

But because strictly scratching won't fly with the masses, "Built From Scratch" bubbles over with guest spots. "Intro," which features the Bay Area's Triple Threat, starts the record off in traditional mix-tape style, praising the X-ecutioners by deftly piecing together egotistical vocal snippets from hard-core rhymers like Mobb Deep. The four-man crew follows a solid but unspectacular hip-hop cut from frequent Swift collaborator Large Professor ("XL"), with an update of influential producer/DJ Marley Marl's "Marley Marl Scratch" into its own "X-ecutioners Scratch." MC Shan's original vocals take on four times the meaning when he declares, "If you think you can beat him, you must be nuts," while Total Eclipse shows why up-and-comers rarely challenge these turntablists with cuts quicker than Allen Iverson's killer crossover.

Love From The Past Dj X Scratch

It is important to note that within this list is an impressive historical record of the industry that developed and continues to thrive around the art of DJing, and notably, the skills (scratching, wordplay, beat juggling, and body tricks) that emerged via battles. The New Music Seminar's Battle for World Supremacy head-to-head battles of the 1980s were iconic. Moreover, the national and international competition scene that was birthed from those events is also significant. Also, noting the currently quite strong international slate of DJs who quite actively carry forth one of the essential elements of hip hop is necessary.

Here's a fascinating continuation of a point from the previous entry. In 1999, some 18 years after its inception, MTV celebrated rap music's pop-crossover success with a "Hip Hop Week" from March 8-14, 1999. As part of their programming, MTV hosted a half-hour long "DJ Battle" that was much more a showcase of the craft. Ultimately, as a college radio DJ and wannabe turntablist, it spawned my 20-year love affair with the craft. If interested in seeing the battle-style skills of names including Grandmaster Flash, Jam Master Jay, DJ Skribble, DJ Infamous, and more (with a guest spot from Stretch Armstrong), it's all here.

Respect for the art of DJing is a crucial component of scratch DJ culture: read up and learn from the legends of scratching like Mix Master Mike and DJ QBert. Doing this gives you a masterclass in how to maintain relevance in a scene that is rooted in DJ battles and competitions.
