That has so be one of the sickest interviews... 🙏🏻
This entire interview is straight L.A. Hip Hop History lesson. Thanx Beat Junkies, this was totally awesome. I'm born and raised L.A. I witnessed all of this. Dorsey class if 1988. KDAY was life. Tony G is why I started DJing.
This interview was awesome! Love to hear Tony G's stories and all the history of music. I'm mad blessed and learned a lot from him. This interview reminds me of all the good times we would have drinkin' at the G Spot and spending hours playing and listening to music til the sun came up. We need a Netflix series on these stories lol! I can't wait for Part 2 of this interview.
I remember when Tony G had his record store called “Spin It Record’s” was dope! I grew up 1 block from Tony. Always such a humble hard working Dj/ businessman/ producer. Stand up dude for sure.
DJ Stallion I'm pretty sure you from the E.M. what year you graduate?I grew up on cogswell got my hair cut from Ralphs barber shop on Peck.Norwood,Durfee,Aroyyo.we probably classmates and neighbors glad you give a fuck about Tony.
I Owe My Whole Dj Career To Tony G And Julio G ... Mad Love And Respect !
Tony G helped me with some of my first rap demos when I was still in highschool and we were neighbors.Salute to the man
Dope interview! Also enjoyed his interview with Tony A on Roadium Radio. 2 great interviews with the Legend Tony G. 💯
Tony G Dropping Science. New DJ's Take Notes.
This is incredible. You guys should get DJ Aladdin or M.Walk on next.
They did Alladin already
These guys changed my teenage years! Growing up on the West Coast and hearing about New York DJs... I kinda felt cheated because I wanted to be a DJ....
When I saw the Egyptian Lover when he came to my town and with these guys.
After seeing that my crew got some junk equipment and started DJing. After I got my 12s I was proud to be a West Coast DJ. 😎👌🏾
I’m so glad the Beat Junkies did this interview! Tony G eres chignon carnal! Much respect!!
gacho men no lo topaba el vato es un OG
This was amazing interview!! I need more! Lol. More KDAY djs please! The LA scene is rich in history!
"I thought he was an Egyptian guy!"
I did too !!! 🤣🤣🤣
I remember the names the places and the chronological order of what Tony G is saying. It was a magical time. Long live the KDAY MixMasters!!! Thank you Junkies!!!
Love the scratching foley! Tony G is The Godfather of DJing in Los Angeles. Great interview guys. I grew up on KDAY!
How appropriate to drop this interview after fathers day, this man helped birth the LA Westcoast style
Dope interview! Tony G is a treasure!
SALUTE TO THIS KING !!
Just finished watching this whole 2:22 hours interview. Dope ass interview! Very entertaining and extremely informative. I too grew up listening and recording those Mix Masters show, because of Tony G. He was so different from all the other West Coast DJ's that they had on KDAY. Uncle Jams Army was good, but when Tony G would DJ, you knew he was more far advance then his other counter parts. The mixes, blends, the speed, the scratches in particular, was unheard of and very advance at the time. I remember hearing on the radio that when he was scratching super fast, that he would bend the record while scratching. His stories and history on west coast radio dj's was entertaining and had me laughing. You guys did an awesome job asking relevant questions, and also very cordial in letting him speak most of time during this interview without interrupting him. I look forward to listening to this Podcast, and I'm glad that I listened to the whole 2 hour plus interview.

Filled in a lot of gaps of my knowledge of LA DJ Culture. Very facinating. Thanks BeatJunkies Fam!
Most authentic DJ interview ever. Loved it
Props to the Beat Junkies for making this happen. Incredible interview.
Great interview.
I grew up in the same neighborhood as Tony. Most of you don’t know but he is also a kick ass drummer. We were all playing rock and roll in the neighborhood. When Tony discovered turntables he was an absolute natural and as you can see, he took that to whole new level.
El Monte?
Awesome show...
Growing up and going to school 2 blocks away from KDAY 1580am. My cousins and I would run after school to the station watch Craig Mack from the window, grab stickers and book covers. Go outside switch sweaters/shirts and go back to do it again 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
I’ve heard so much about this guy! These stories are INCREDIBLE. A real deal DJ dropping nothing but jewels 💎. He just gave me more homework to do 📚

BEATJUNKIES VISIONARIES!!!
Yup My Mentor Tony G mentioned me...Ya i was that little 14 yr old kid at the Exodus records class I’ll never forget after that session I practiced for hours on the 1650 Numark phone/line switch transforming and getting my patterns He showed me
He's very humble....
Mannn Part 2 Pleaseeeeee & A Jam Session
Oh what! Tony G! That’s the man right there. What’s up Tony it’s Little Salvo Jr. from El Monte ✌🏼
THIS WAS DOPE
Tony G is one of the baddest DJs ever
Dope dope dope.
Tony G breaks down the analogy of mixshow formats versus radio formats. Very true, tons of great music out there that the mixshow DJs has the ‘choice’ to play. Now, they’re being told to play - mostly songs from artists that have no talent but have the connection, money to get their song played.
Music should be about talent, not publicity.
Wow 💯
DJ bulgaria champion
This was dope. Got to learn about a cat whose name I'd heard but didn't really know much about. This was one of the best interviews you guys have done.
Super dope. I did not know Tony G and LL Cool J we're cool way back in the days. 🔥 Great interview guys first time listener just cuz I saw Tony g and I wanted to pick up something new when I did besides the LL Cool J. He has so much stories so much game in the hip hop in the West Coast. The sky been everywhere and I know now he's not in everybody's picture but he was there making history standing back from all the paparazzi all the pictures all that bomb life. 👍🏼🔥
I knew Tony growing up. The Henry guy he mentioned is my cuz. I used to go by Tony's house all the time because he would give me records. Some I still have to this day. A true legend he is!
El Monte in la casa! Spin it Records on Lower Azusa and the corner of Peck.Tony had records you could hear on Kday and as a kid coming up I had no idea how much work he did bringing East coast joints and support for hip hop in LA .If you're a rap fan who grew up in LA in the 80s you can thank this man!
Give thanks! 🤙
Tony dropped knowledge on the whole Radio / DJ industry. Facts!!
Good Interview
🖤
1:28:37 It's time to rewind, so go 'head, flick the switch
, it's fat, catch it..
Scientist!!!
Whoa
I was born 1982
James Brown Funky Drummer Was Never On LP. Only 45. They Put It On The In The Jungle Groove LP Later On.
Tony was talking about the “Feelin James” joint on the bootleg Bozo Meka label. During those times, Funky Drummer was only available either on that label or on the Ultimate Breaks & Beats compilations in the West Coast. The break culture didn’t really hit LA until the late 80’s so nobody didn’t about the 45’s & like you said, Jungle Groove LP didn’t come out later on.
I take it back...it’s not the Bozo Meka label, it was TD Records...the B-Side had a Funky Drummer edit:

Dj Rhettmatic Was that the Danny Krivit edit under the name Mister K or is that something different?
