DJ AM

“Words cannot express the hurt I’m feeling right now,” Jeff wrote about his fellow Philadelphia native. “I’m still waiting for this to be a terrible joke.” – Dj Jazzy Jeff

“I almost crashed my car when I heard that he was found dead,” DJ Whoo Kid remembered on Saturday (August 29). “My homey was a legend!”

“It’s sad, we lost an amazing DJ,” DJ Khaled told MTV News. “Everyone has love for DJ AM. … He made other DJs proud! DJ AM we will miss you. R.I.P. Every DJ will keep your name alive!”

Clinton Sparks commented, “He was an original, an innovator and his influence will forever live on in our culture. Whether they know it or not, all DJs have been influenced by him. Thank you DJ AM.”

“We are extremely saddened about the loss of DJ AM,” Play N Skillz said in a joint statement. “He was a great person who cared and loved for everyone around him and his spirit will live on through the many people he touched. We started out as DJs and DJ AM has always been an inspiration to us, his dynamic ear for music made him legendary in the industry and he will be greatly missed.”

“AM not only helped take DJing to a new frontier as the first true mainstream celebrity DJ, he opened the doors for me and many others by taking DJing as a culture, business, and lifestyle to the next level,” DJ Skee said. “I send my deepest thoughts and condolences to his family.”

“It’s a sad day. DJ AM was a great person and a great turntablist. He took DJing to another level by playing outside the box,” DJ Envy concurred. “He will always be missed and remembered.”

“This is crazy,” ATL-based OG Greg Street told MTV News. “I was just asking for people on Twitter to have him hit me about three or four days ago. The real crazy part is he just survived a plane crash and now this. A lot of people don’t understand the stress that others deal with day to day.”

DJ Premier said he’d known AM for over 14 years and spoke about their relationship on his radio show last night.

“I met him when he was 14 years old at a Cypress Hill, House of Pain, Hooligans show. He was with Alchemist and Scott Caan, James Caan’s son … and we took pictures. The other day, he sent me the pictures, and I’m gonna make a T-shirt of that.

“I already heard people are trying to hate like he wasn’t important, like he wasn’t a dope DJ,” Primo added. “Let me tell you something: He is the f—in’ sh–. This dude’s a f—in’ maniac on turntables, for real. You have to experience this dude’s tactics on turntables — he’s sick with it. And if I cosign it, f— any DJ who disagrees. You either haven’t seen him spin … and this dude’s history, his knowledge of music, was intense.”

DJ Stretch Armstrong, a longtime friend of AM’s, told MTV News: “I was trying to think of an analogy in music to AM and the only group I could really think of is the Beatles. Everything the Beatles did, they knocked down a door. Every year there was something new, whether it was what they were recording or the technology and techniques they were employing. And it’s kind of like that with AM. He knocked down and opened so many doors that had never even been knocked on by DJs. These doors might be open but there’s no one that can walk in them right now, and who knows if there will be? He was a singular talent in that way.”

And DJ Drama told MTV News on Friday, “Knowing AM and watching him and seeing the heights that he’s reached the last couple years has been great. One, because he’s a DJ. And when the incident [plane crash] happened last year, every time I saw him afterward, he was just a real good dude. He accomplished a lot, man. The hip-hop world lost a good one. DJs, we really lost great one.”

Brandon Vee

I found this kid on myspace and realized he is pretty dope.

Peep his bio taken from Mypsace..

/ Brandon V, at the age of 9 wrote his first rhyming lines out of heartbreak and sorrow. Growing up Brandon was a social outcast, he was teased and teased on in his early years of school. So he turned to writing as a coping method to deal with his social problems writing poems and thoughts in around every margin of class notes. He later turned his attention to hip hop at 14 and hasn’t stopped since. Recently turning 22 he is one of the most talented young hip hop artists today. His ability to formulate his own style on any type of hip hop is remarkable allowing him to be as versatile and successful as the city he was born and raised in, New York. Craig Kallman CEO of Atlantic records co-signs saying “There is clearly talent there…the consensus is he is a skilled rapper”. An A&R at Atlantic records also says “The first track is solid, I would say it’s a smash” in response to a song sent to him via email. In addition he and 20 others were chosen out of 8,000 to be part of a 25 city unsigned artist tour during the process of his signing with SkyRockit Records. His lyrical talent and appearance capture a wide range audience from young females lulled by some of his pop and R&B undertone, to the young and older males dazzled by his lyricism. He is the new generation hip hop artist, one who can write and perform to any style of beat and make it a hit, his name is Brandon V
