I dj's this mormon wedding once (it was my first gig).


Wasn't too familiar with the Dj Hero program i had in my laptop...


Shiit, on top of not being prepared enough, i was nervous as fukk.


So instead of blending music, i just hit the fader gradually over the next track.


A couple teenage kids called me "DJ CROSSFADE" on my way out.

I always wanted to be a DJ from a young age, I ended up getting my turntables when I was 18. I wish I woulda gotten them earlier tho, like 13 or so when I 1st started showing interest in that matter.

I practised and got into it for about a year and I was doing pretty good. After a year I had enough confidence to do parties and I was going to open decks sessions on Sundays. People told me they liked the music I was playing and got some compliments.

The 1st time I ever played in front of a big group I got booed off tho and some other guy took over. After about 30 mins they let me get back on the decks and I did a lot better that time so it wasn't so bad.

Then when I was 19 I had some problems and had to give it up. I started again a couple of years later at 22 but I just didn't have the same drive and passion for it anymore, so I ended up giving it up.

I still got my turntables at home but I don't even have the space to set them up so they just sit in the closet floor. I don't do it anymore but sometimes I think about it. Another thing is, now everyone uses CD turntables and they are expensive as f*ck and harder to learn to use than vinyl so I don't see myself going back to it in these new days.

I'm also interested in production and I know a little about it. I might start doing it as a hobby in the future and try to get into it but I dunno at this point. Also, if u wanna be a producer, u need to have some kind of musical knowledge, and I mean real musical knowledge, like the type of person that plays instruments has but I don't have that at the moment. I guess I could always learn

If u wanna go into production, it would be good for you if u know an instrument. Personally I would go with a keyboard since synths and stuff like that is the most used in rap music production.

The DJ game is easy to break into nowadays b. I had a friend in college who was making a extra 10k a year off DJ gigs his first year into it. You jus gotta plan ish out, the DJ game is fun as fukk.

My advice would be to ultilze social medi a to the maxx to step up ya status. If you are a overall enjoyable and person. People will be fighting each other to book you.

Word. I remember doing a couple if Indian and Ethiopian weddings . Them peoples know how to party. Its about social status nowadays rather than talent imo.

 

[BasketCase]

You don't need any kind of talent or credibility nowadays, so go for it. Easiest money you'll ever make.

For real? You've done it?

[Spliff Robinson]

Your lack of confidence is holding you back waaayyy more than your age. 23 is not old you just don't believe in yourself.

 

[SuburbanPimp]

a rapper.

I still think about what I could have did if I was in the rap game, ohh well, back to this life that they call reality.

Bruh, Go download "Audacity"

Get you a mic

Download some instrumentals

And press record.

Its really that simple...

No if you want to be famous and rap for a living thats a whole nother subject.

But if you want to record to see how you or to see if you got what it take go this route.

I did the same thing with my potnas a few years back it was one of the dopest things I ever done. After a while we were basically doing for ourselves and people in our circle. I still ride around listening to shyt we made today

Its not the greatest quality but the only thing we had to pay for is a Mic and blank CDs to burn it on.

[Roberto Dinero]

It was such a long time ago I can't even remember.

C'mon now. U've had number 1s in the charts and u don't remember? As a recording artist, I'm pretty sure that's hard to forget. If u don't wanna tell us that's fine, I'm just curious.

What type of music were u making? Hip Hop? Dancehall? Or what?
