10 years ago 50 Cent dropped his first mixtape "50 Cent Is The Future" and now 50 is releasing "The Big 10" as an anniversary mixtape. Back then I still had a tape deck in my car lol...Don't laugh some of you still do!
On Friday December 9th, The Big 10 mixtape will be available online for for free. Be sure to check back here as I will have the mixtape on MWC Radio blog to stream.
In the mean time download these two throw-back mixtapes:
It's never easy to lose someone in life, and I want to send out my condolences to the family of the late comedian and actor Patrice O'Neal. May he always be remembered for his intellect contributions to comedy.
I was shocked to hear the news this week as I browsing the web reading some articles. My first time recognizing Patrice O'Neal was on the Charlie Sheen Roast on Comedy Central. Personally I'm mad I didn't know how funny and intelligent his comedy was.After watching the Charlie Sheen Roast on Netflix, I saw a recommended slot to watch Elephant in The Room-Patrice's last stand-up on Comedy Central (see below).
Not to go on and on, but for the full story on Patrice click on the link to read the full post NY Daily News .

Like football the Ultimate Rap League is a full contact sport! Period. If you look at the logo it looks like a UFC logo.... Hmmmm I wonder if that was the intent.
Anyways, in this post I want to share with you what emcee battle competition has evolved to--with no beat, straight accapella and a better sense of dramatization for those who don't know..
This battle dates back to July 2010, I think, so don't quote me on that--like you care. Just hit the play button get and some good speakers or headphones, (smh) because these two go H.A.M!!
Tell me who you think who won the battle via my twitter DJ OHH! and mention @mathhoffa or @ayeverb.
For my SIRIUS-XM Satellite listeners who keeps it locked on SHADE45, Rude Jude gets an unexpected call from Floyd "Money" Mayweather regarding things said. Now most radio personalities would do the "yes man" and maybe kiss some culo while on the air with Mayweather...not so much for Rude Jude.
If you don't know about the the All Out Show with Rude Jude and Lord Sear, you have to cop the SIRIUS for the car, home or iPhone app...Way better than just the radio, radio.. Real talk.
Before I was DJ OHH!, everybody knows me also as OT. This picture to the left (from left to right) is me next to DJ Deez Nuts, Ankoma in his Tribe Called Quest pose lol...and DJ Blendz. We coordinated an emcee battle competition formally known in Providence, RI as Mic-Wars. Before Youtube, back when Myspace was still poppin, we were one of the hottest underground shows at that time. Our main audience were college kids in the area, including the local underground scene buzzing.
The two stand-out headline acts that I can remember include Masta Ace and Wordsmith. During spring of 2003 Mic-Wars 3 was my first involvement with the competition, and we saw some heavy lyricist come through. Good times...
Check out some clips below just to take you back to a sold out crowd in a small bar... Yes I was lol on stage sideline....
Exclusive remix by myself (DJ OHH!) and co produced by Ankoma (@Ankoma101).
I took one of my favorite albums of all time-Ready to Die-mixed it with Tyler the creator-Yonkers-beat.
I was listening to that Yonkers beat really hard-like just the instrumental no wolf! Lol. Then it hit me-the Biggie lyrics from Suicidal Thoughts.
So I jumped info the smallest studio on earth and I started to beat match it just to see... I was hearing a perfect match... I was like whoa! Not Black Rob but I mean whoa!
Now my intention was not to follow anybody but the voice inside me to connect the dots. I don't care to some extent if you like it. I did it for the emcee , the DJ, the graffiti artist, for the kid with a cracked iPod screen! Point blank period.
So if you read this far show me some love/hate on my comment box aight!

This is the future of DJing, and who esle but DJ Revolution to be the frontier of it. A combination of the retro feel of the turntable but a the progressive feel of today's technology to re-invent the style of turntablism.
