How DJ Drama Went From Mixtape King to Mogul | Blueprint
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 11 июл 2024
- The music bug started for DJ Drama in Philly at age 13 with his first turntable, and continued through Clark Atlanta University, where his name began to ring bells. Soon came the birth of his legendary "Gangsta Grillz" series, spawning collaborations with T.I., Young Jeezy, and Lil Wayne that revolutionized the mixtape game. And then, the feds tried to shut down his operation forever. Bowed but not broken, DJ Drama re-emerged with a second life as a music mogul whose Generation Now record label continues his legacy of uncovering emerging talent, including Lil Uzi Vert and Jack Harlow-and whose voice is still loud and clear on Tyler, the Creator's Grammy-nominated album.
There are more ways than ever to "make it" these days, and like snowflakes, no two journeys are identical. On "Blueprint," a diverse range of influential people reveal the lessons they learned on their paths to success-direct to camera with no filter. From the origin stories of Lyrical Lemonade founder Cole Bennett and TV mogul Mona Scott-Young to the career pivot of rapper-turned-exec Lil Bibby, learn how small victories can add up to big wins. Also featured in the series: unconventional advice from Twitch's most popular streamer Hasan Piker and words of wisdom from Netflix CMO Bozoma Saint John. These are their blueprints-it's up to you to create yours.

Where’s the talk about that new Clyde Guevara Gansta Grillz album? Old Me is 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
What’s that instrumental at 0:20???
'92 was not the early inception of hip hop. The new school was being formed at that time but to use that terminology is a slap in the face to all the artists in the 80s that literally paved the way for those newer 90s generation of artists. Cats like Grandmaster Flash & The Furious Five, LL Cool J, Run DMC, Rakim, Big Daddy Kane, Kool G Rap, etc...That's the problem with this newer generation. They refuse to pay homage and in some cases, even acknowledge the history.
This intro samples like mopstick by french and Kodak
