DJ A-Dog x Living Proof Mag presents: Tru Skool (Various Artists)
Friends For A-Dog I replied to a comment that my dude Luis Calderin posted as #oldmanning on the hip hop nowadays... i replied w/plenty to say since i feel the same way. Wanted 2 share what i classify as hip hop and what we grew up on,as well as some of the groups since i feel i live in this time still. Big shouts to NG at [ 2 one 5 ] Creative & Living Proof for putting this out together to show example of what we feel True Skool is. Mixed & blended by DJ A-D0G.
Here's my reply to his comment,and i have some other throwback mixes to share also...stay tuned:
*hip hop opinion*
Luis Calderin I can agree...that's why when I DJ I play music. They should call what I think u r speaking of rap or come up with a new name since it is a new sound. Hop hop should be the same,and can't be changed...the days of Krs-1,A Tribe called quest,De la soul,Run dmc,Public enemy etc....the list of mine goes on that I can name and file as hip hop in my definition. Lyrics that I could relate to even tho I wasn't from NYC or some big city...we might just need to come up with a new genre name for what they call hip hop...the new 'music' has nothing motivating to talk about,undanceable beats,lower tempos that u could almost speak over and not consider rhyming...big budgets to make the music tho,as well as backing by sponsors! I miss the sampling of rare beats and grooves which made me learn about funk and soul groups that I have never heard of...I could go on and on,maybe we should...new music seminar so we can all learn old and new.
Way to open up the same but great topic! #oldmanning
Peace

DJ A-Dog presents: 'Reggae-Fix' (Hip Hop/Reggae Remixes Compilation)
A collection of hip hop-reggae remixes. Not a fully blended mix so you can use these as single remixes to bump in the club. Have had this done for years just wasn't as quick to have it online. Nowadays to share the tunes and get them far it's the best option. So fans of both these genres i hope you take a listen and enjoy...also a selecta maybe you can run a few in your set.
peace and love everytime!
let the music guide you...

A-Dog x Full Sail x Visionary 16mm Crew
A-DOG x Full Sail (Visionary 16mm Crew) from DJ A_DOG on Vimeo.
It was in the works for me to go Full Sail University in Florida sometime in 2012 to speak about inspiration on how i make my mix tapes and remixes. It was set up thru a friend of mine (Nate Hayward) who was giving those mixes to Bekha Lee (video set design instructor) at Full Sail. Long story short...when Bekha's students start working on set designs everyday the are asked what they choose to listen to...7 outta 10 times (her words) they want to listen to a mix of mine while they work! Which is why we were trying to make it happen for me to go down there,speak a bit and maybe dj for them at the school or maybe get a club gig. So things were not able to happen in 2012 and of course i have quite the speed bump to get over for the moment...which is happening gracefully! But the crew at Full Sail (Visionary 16mm Crew) got wind of my situation and sent me a T-shirt signed by the whole class and this video they made for me. Talk about uplifting! I inspired them to work...they inspire me to get better and keep the music coming to them! It's all 360. Just really wanted to share this with everyone.Thanks you to (Visionary 16mm Crew) and Bekhah Lee at Full Sail University! I will be down there soon to rock with y'all...much love!

DJ A-Dog x The Pharcyde 'A Re-fixed Ryde' Side A (stream)
Been a crazy fan of The Pharcyde from the 1st time i heard 'Bizaare Ride'. Their almost non-traditional west coast rhymes and vibes had me convinced they were east coast. Either way they were dope! Of course once i got my hand on enough acapellas it was time for a short tribute mix to one of the groups that got me thru high school in the 90's.
So here it is a mix of Pharcyde over classic beats and some guest on their originals,classic refix style. Other Cats on this mix:Nas,AZ,Ludacris,Audio Two,Eric B,Beatnuts,Big Pun,Jay-Z,Kool Keith,Biggie,2Pac,Big L.
