DJ Clue's The Professional appreciation thread

Had a few joints, but was nothing like his mixtapes

The story goes that Cam'ron, Noreaga and Canibus had recorded their verses for this DJ Clue track and were chilling in the studio waiting for Big Pun. When the Punisher finally did stagger in, dead drunk, he headed straight to the booth, did his verse in one take and walked out, leaving the three other emcees so stunned that they had to rewrite their verses.

If this is true this some Goat shit.That's literally my favorite Big Pun verse ever,duke blazed that verse

Queens Finest by Nas is one of the best songs on the tape and in Nas career

Always found it wild clue albums on rocafella had verses from Jay's foes Nas,mob and pun

Fucking GOAT mixtapes that I bump in the whip real often, street anthems for days.

I have a theory, a hot DJ from NY needs to do a new series, similar to Clue, featuring all these new cats, Bada$$, Bodega Bamz, Old Droog, RATKING, KA, Perrion, Roc Marciano etc would be dope

That would be dope. I concur

You think these niggas will blow up? NY underground scene is bubbling like crazy imo

Joey Bad@$$ strikes me as a great candidate. I look at Chance and Vic in the same light they seem to be blowing up to a certain extent why couldn't these cats. Granted the game is very diverse now and can be more difficult to break for some than others.

I think the answer to that question depends on how we define the variables. Not everyone of them may be a commercial success but they each have a following of their own on the underground tip which allows them to garner respect and recognition for their art and craftsmanship.

As you said that NY (or Northeastern into) underground scene is bubbling. That's a great start at the very least. Add in a game changing strategy, marketing campaign, consistent quality music, collabs and the assistance of hiphop legends who've been in the game and watched it evolve add their value and credibility to these cats and you might have something; underground or commercial. So I think it's possible. Maybe all, maybe some, only time will tell.
