Selecta BAM BAM!
Something a little different. If you like dancehall or reggae hiphop...this is the DJ for you. Crazy mix right here. I do not know much about Selecta Bam Bam, I just know that every mix I have heard from him has been a banger. Another gem from '97.
Oh yeah, I know I need to work on my photo shop skills but whatever. This will do for now!
Enjoy!

Love Bug Starski - Old School Rap '97
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lovebug_Starski
This tape was my 1st introduction to Lovebug Starski. I knew he was one of the old school dj's and if I wanted to be a dj, Lovebug is someone I should be familiar with. So at 16, I got my first taste on how the dj's from the beginning of this art form Rocked. Lovebug not only spoke with his hands but he was very present on the mic, that's what impressed me the most with him.
This is also one of the 1st mixtapes that I owned that was in cd form. I got this sometime in spring of '97. I also had a DJ Hollywood tape from around the sametime but it is no longer in my collection for whatever reason.

What got me back into the Mixtape (if you can not read this, go 2 post up!)
It was around '98 I believe when I started to see artist I did not want to hear on my favorite mixtape dj's tapes. Doo Wop with Juvenille, S&S with Master P, etc. etc. That was not what I was trying to hear. I loved to get a tape and hear the rugged raw shit, not that shit. And believe me, I like the south but that's not what I was wanting to hear on my mixtapes. So basically, I steered away from that mixtape scene and followed only few Indy hiphop mixtape dj's. But they were not as creative to me as the core NY DJ with the blending new edition with some crazy drum break or some random 80's accapella with peter piper inst. Or just the party rocking skills of kid capri.
So basically when this Nas and Jay Z beef came about, I was interested as well was the whole hiphop community. So I Stumbled upon this mixtape in a store, saw the tracklisting, and bought it. Took it home at the Fonoslut Mansion and could not believe my ears. There was mixing, the tape put together as a whole was onpoint, I heard blends, cuts, it was what I had not heard coming from NY in years. I am sure it was but I just must have been missing out here in Columbus.
It almost seems to me these days the internet has even phased this part of the DJ out. That's what made this mixtape so unique to me. In these days, you just take it to the net, Fuck a DJ. Remember when 50 made mixtapes dissin JA? Could not wait to hear what this dude would come up with next. Now, you see cartoons, 50 with wigs on, and 5 diss tracks within 2 weeks and now im already burned out. Dude is a great comedian though.
So thank you Nas, Jay Z, and the Evil Genius himself, Green Lantern, for brigning the mixtape back into my life 8 years ago. This was the tape that did it for me and made dig for other mixtape dj's doing what I loved to hear.
