Make 400K per night DJ'ing in Vegas Brehs

[Ronnie Lott]

What's a DJ doing that's worth 400K per night? Why is his stage name just another common CAC name, like his real name? How did black people get pushed out of our own shyt like this?

The name alone brings in people

I saw some where that DJ Jazzy Jeff was the highest paid DJ in the world.

I dont know about that, but he constantly has work and was a resident DJ at The Palms hotel for their parties, even did the last Mayweather fight weekend/ last pool party of the season there this past year.. He is living very comfortably id say

not sure on his figures, but he's probably clearing 1-2 million a year minimum DJing right now.. I could be completely wrong of course as im not his accountant but he always has work and its not like you can book him for $500

 

[Ronnie Lott]

yep, there's plenty of black DJs, but they'd never get put on theses cacs playing in vegas

Eric Morillo

Dude spins in Vegas all the time and was a resident DJ at Tao. I've seen him spin multiple times.

damn you sure proved me wrong, i guess columbians represent african americans now too. for a guy that says he aint trynna claim everybody, you sure do claim everybody

 

[Ronnie Lott]

There can be a black DJ if black DJs played Big Room or EDM. There is never going to be a DJ festival like Ultra or Tommorrowland with nikkas mixing kill a nikka music.

Lil Jon, Eric Morillo and Donald Glaude DJ at big events all the time tho. Those cats are eatin

 

[GoFlipAPack]

Oh i get it. Jeff is more geared towards the uh....urban crowd

Kinda off topic but his wife and I actually grew up together. She was a couple years older than me but was coo. She stayed right down da hill from a nikka. Still find it crazy.

He considers himself afro Columbiano.

That's true, I know Jon made the switch early. Kind of genius of him if you think about it.

man people gotta understand DJ's get paid on their name, not the sound they bring.. new DJ's blow me up ALL day "man book me, ill have ya shyt rockin" bruh its not about that.. seriously its not.. yeah theres bad DJ's but once you get to a certain point DJ's gonna play the same shyt just maybe in a different order.. its about whose gonna bring business. Thats what seperates a $750 a night DJ and a $60 DJ.. the $750 dj has proved that he can bring 50 people and 2-3 tables worth of business..

had some djs be like "I just seen you pay him $350 how come you cant give that to me ? I had that shyt jumpin more than him!" its not bout that bruh.. only to an extent.. you arent a party rocker, youre a host/promoter pretty much as well.. that person sold 3 tables and brought 70 people..you brought the people in your car .. theres a reason youre a big part of the flyer..

Look at that shyt my nikkas. I've been to ones on a smaller scale, but think of that brehs.

You can't get that size of a crowd doing some shyt like nikka fukk you, duck down, i got the gat, i fukked yo bytch, moving weight. You need that rhythm to get the crowd going. These people want to dance and get blazed, not want to be hype and have to slap someone. Just the reality of it. We did create DJing and many of us still do it. However, it has been said, the money is in EDM. I fukk with it. I be at the crib, one song gets mixed into another perfectly. shyt, I got that new Mixed in Key 7 working on my MP3 collection right now at the crib for those cue points in my Serato. . Be having the kids downstairs to my wack ass mixes like

while i mix Fresh Beat Band and Rihanna. Let me try some MOP or Saigon and my kids be like

what does Ante Up mean Dad?
