Hip hop music is what got me into dj mixing in the first place. I still have those lps by rappers Mc Shan, LL COol J, UTFO, WHistle, Beastie Boys, Choice Mcs, Run DMC, Juice Crew, Kool G Rap, Mantronix, Ice T, 2 live crew, Biz Markie, Big Daddy Kane, Eric B and Rakim, Dana Dane, Stetasonic, Fat Boys, LA Dream Team,Kurtis Blow,Dj Jazzy Jeff and the fresh prince. In addition, i can answer questions about electrofunk that came from that era: Twilight 22, Newcleus, Egyptian Lover, Arabian Prince, Kyper,Cybotron, Reggie Griffin and Technofunk, Hashim. In addition to that my knowledge of 80s hip hop and r&b extends to the r&b/funk side with Cameo, Loose Ends, Lakeside, Gap Band, Sos band, and others.
