EP#17-The DJ's (A Tribute To Hip Hop's Backbone)

Bazooka Joe Presents...

Here’s a classic from the archives, a mix I made in conjunction with LA based Hip Hop Philosophy Radio a few years back. There was a time similar to Hip-House where every album had a song either dedicated to the DJ of the group and/or a DJ solo piece. This trend stopped sometime in the 90’s but a lot of these joints get missed or overlooked when it comes to Old School Hip-Hop…here’a a sonic ‘tip of the cap’ to all the DJ’s who have inspired me and many others, JMJ was definitely one of the first ones for me, that’s why he’s on the cover R.I.P...
