[ohjosta]

dj boogie boy is my daddddd (:

seriously.

[benzit0]

pls tell your pops that i looked up to him & that i got his mixtapes & that battle wax w/dj adam 12!

[daillmeskin]

WOW!!! I have the 1991 DMC US Finals video tape but it's only filmed from one angle. You can see MTV's camera guy filming all the clips used for this MTV news segment. FINALLY after damn near 17 YEARS of having the tape and countless sleepless nights I get to see the MTV segment!!!!! I feel like crying right now!!!Thanks for posting this!!!

[benzit0]

yup! i got the same tape.

when i first saw boogie boy i thought my vcr was on play/fast-forward. woah!

hey, did your tape had extra footage of them practicing in a hotel room?

[daillmeskin]

No my tape didn't have that. Does yours? Yeah Boogie Boy was fast and smooth. Baby G is a personal friend of mine. He's doing radio and clubs in Austin. Even up until 95,96 he was doing that elbow routine when he would showcase at venues. Funny thing about Exotic E...if you have the 1990 DMC tape where Baby G won in NY,the first DJ on the tape Joe Jackboy is Exotic E. E told me that on Myspace. He also said he wore the mask to cover up injuries from a car wreck like a week before the comp.

[benzit0]

yeah, my tape had it. its like the blue print to turntable tv haha.

oh cool, baby g! i think i got a mixtape of his. thnx for the history of exotic e btw...

No q-bert interview...hmm...lets see, 1991, better not let the Pilipino get interviewed.

[djbiskit]

Funny how Steve Dee sounds 20 years ahead of his time in the interviews. The dude was way, way ahead of his time while everyone else was talking about scratching with their balls, dancing off beat, wearing wack 80s clothes. It's like the dude time warped to 1991 to show everyone what was to come. Smart, inspiring dude. Everyone should think like this guy in anything they do in life.
