Yo What Happened To DJ Clue?

They screamed over shit so one, you knew who the DJ was and nobody can just rebadge and resell the shit as their own ..... also to make you go out and buy the actual record and support the artist

DJ Clue first couple of mixtapes were Reggae tapes

DJ Silva Surfa had Queens on lock before Clue

Nobody screamed as bad as S&S ..... he had the worst tapes in NYC plus he was just as bad live

Kid Capri & Ron G set the mix tape game off in NYC
 
Doo Wop was the GOAT mixtape DJ in the mid 90s. He would have popular MCs drop "freestyles" (really pre-writtens over somebody else's beat) on his tapes. He was the first mixtape DJ to do that.

But DJ Clue took over in the mid 90s by getting "exclusives" (new songs before they leaked anywhere else) on his tapes. DJ Clue has a legendary tape from 1996 called 4,5,6 that was all exclusives. The whole tape was unreleased material by popular rappers. That was the first mixtape of its kind. And then Clue kinda took over from there until Tony Touch dropped 50 MCs in 1999.

Kay Slay started killing em around 2001. I remember I had the Kay Slay tape with Ether. That mixtape probably goes for a fortune on EBay nowadays. By 2002/03 Kay Slay was dropping a mixtape every other week and the other mixtape DJs couldn't keep up. Kay Slay was moving faster than the internet in 03.

DJ Clue still has the 6-10pm evening spot on Power 105 in NYC

DESERT STORM!! YALL KNOW, yall know, yall know.....stupid...stupid lol. HATED that nigga back in high school. ruined every dope song but he was killin shit back then til kay slay aka slap your favorite dj came along. i fucked with envy too. llike someone said though cant forget about whoo kidd. He resurrected the mixtape game once it became over saturated with hundreds of djs.
 
all jokes aside tho u gotta salute those tapes/mix shows during that era they pushed alot of artists that wouldn't have gotten any burn else where.

as far as annoying dj voices, envy is tops for me. that nigga's pitch sounded like somebody dropped a 90 pound weight on his foot before he voiced over those tracks.

He fell the fuck off cause he was yelling all over tracks not giving the damn song a chance to play.

Nigga would even scream on slow jams!!!

Christion Just Leave Your Love:

Nigga never shoyld have been on in the first fucking place.


LOL yo he really screamed on every R&B cut on that tape! Couldn't even play that shit when a girl came over, would straight fuck the whole mood up. Used to have this slow jam mix I would play when this particular broad came over, I learned to stop setting it on random. Be balls deep talking dirty and in the background "NEW SHIT. ANNNNN AHHHHH. HA - HA . WILLIAM M HOLLA" smh



this Rell tracked followed the Christion track on that mixtape album and hearing this dude giving shout outs to his mom and dad and daughter had me shaking my head at the beginning of the track
 
Saw him in south-beach a few years back.. a fight broke out between a chick and a nigga in a wheelchair and he jump up like niggas was shooting and dipped.. havent seen him since

I know somebody who knows somebody who went to high school with DJ Clue. Apparently Clue used to get clowned and picked on in high school by the thugs and bullies. But it wasn't long after graduation that Clue started getting connections in the industry. Pretty soon he started putting out tapes and showed up to his high school reunion driving a Benz.
