Pete Rock Talks About His Comic Book Collection

Stussy x Marvel - DJ Pete Rock from Stussy on Vimeo.


Stussy and Marvel produced this mini-documentary about Pete Rock's comic book collection, with his personal favorite being Hulk. I still think the Hulk t.v. show from the 70's/80's was some of the scariest sh*t from my childhood.

Roy Ayers Project: Bobbito Garcia, ?uestlove





We’re very proud to present the next installment of the Roy Ayers Project documentary series in partnership with our brothers and sisters at Revivalist. This new video features the one and only Bobbito Garcia (you can watch the ?uestlove edition and get more backstory here) relating his memories of the epic Roy Ayers performance at Central Park Summerstage in 2004–and Ayers’ ability to control natural systems such as the weather through the use of soul-jazz (my word?). For real, though. I was there. I attended this concert and I saw Bob there. This actually happened. Meanwhile, the production team for the documentary heads down to Los Angeles this week, where they’ll be gathering interviews with some Jazz legends and Hip-hop personalities, plus hosting a few events.

DJ Scratch - What's In My Bag?

DJ Scratch - Hip-Hop DJ & Producer
DJ Scratch is a renowned DJ and producer who has been nominated for three Grammys and 40+ Gold and Platinum Awards. Born in New York as George Spivey, he won the New Music Seminar Battle for World Supremacy DJ Championship in 1988 and then went on tour with Run-D.M.C.. During the tour Scratch and Jam Master J became friends and it was under JMJ's mentorship that Scratch developed his style of showmanship and honed his performance skills. At JMJ's recommendation, EPMD hired Scratch when they needed a DJ with flair. By 1989, DJ Scratch was the official EPMD DJ and by 1992 he was part of the Hitsquad, a collective of Hip-Hop artists associated with EPMD, including Redman, K-Solo, Hurricane G, and Das EFX. Scratch is not only a DJ but a producer and has produced tracks for EPMD, 50 Cent, Busta Rhymes, LL Cool J, and many more. He was also the resident DJ for various national TV shows including BET's "Rap City: Tha Basement," was featured in films including Spike Lee's Bamboozled, and was named a Hip-Hop Icon in 2006 by The Source Magazine.

DJ Craze performs on Traktor Scratch Pro 2


In this video, the 5x DMC World Champion showcases the newest TRAKTOR SCRATCH generation which is hitting stores worldwide today. Craze uses his TRAKTOR SCRATCH PRO 2 digital vinyl system to create a live dubstep remix, controlled by his golden Technics turntables and two DJ controllers.

TRAKTOR KONTROL X1 is used for playing a live beat using one-shot drum samples in TRAKTOR's Sample Decks -- while he fires off various other samples and trigger cue points with his signature white MASCHINE unit. A beat juggling section in the middle leads to the finale where Craze combines fast cue point juggles, vocal samples and TRAKTOR effects.

This Turntable Tricknology routine perfectly highlights the power and unlimited creative potential of the newest TRAKTOR generation. Watch more videos and get further information on the new generation of TRAKTOR DJ products here: http://www.native-instruments.com/traktor

KRS-One takes his son record shopping.


What's in KRS One's bag as he takes his son (who is a DJ) record (or should i say CD) shopping.

KRS-One is an MC, philosopher, activist, author, and lecturer. KRS-One spent his teen years in a homeless shelter in Brooklyn, and it was there he met a counselor named Scott Sterling (aka Scott La Rock). Together they formed Boogie Down Productions in the mid-1980s, releasing their debut album, Criminal Minded (M.I.L. Multimedia), in 1987. Sterling was killed in 1987 and shortly after KRS-One founded the Stop the Violence Movement to address violence in the Hip-Hop community. In 1983, he released his first solo album, Return of the Boom Bap (Jive). To date, KRS-One, also known as "The Teacha," has released 19 full-length albums, has given over 500 lectures, and written three books, The Gospel of Hip Hop: First Instrument (2010), Ruminations (2003), andThe Science of Rap (1995). KRS-One was given the BET Lifetime Achievement Award in 2008 for his work with the Stop The Violence Movement and his contribution to Hip-Hop.
