Where The F*** The Dj’s At? 2007-07-27 04:02:35 Let’s reminisce for a minute, ahhh yes, the good old days remember those, chilling at the park and a DJ spinning records while MC’s cypher and battle and spectators huddle around to listen and see what’s going on. The days when mixtapes were put together by qualified DJ’s who actually got down on their turntables. The days when DJing wasn’t a hobby but a subculture of HipHop.

Whiley quickly apologized to the public for the homophobic outburst and the BBC’s governors committee banned him from doing future interviews. His music will still be played on the station however. First felony charges for pulling a gun on someone now this, I think Game got to step back for a minute cause all of this negative publicity isn’t going to do good for his career. ...
