Bottom Line

[marcblemberg]

If a club puts it self on the radio and claims to be hip hop.
You cannot have a DJ playing CD's and using a computer hidden in a square box.
The DJ has to be on the dance floor so the people can see the man mix scratch and create new sounds with yesteryears sounds mixed and cut up with today's sound...that's it.
The public is being cheated with fakes.
And a crowed will always enjoy to see a B, Boy get down,especially the ladies.
There is no hip hop without those elements,
so calling out the fake one give the people what they deserve and entertain them, they deserve it.
Instead of poring alcohol down there body's.
and put up some old school hip hop videos come on get a real hip hop element going if you calim to be hip hop.
STOP BULLSHIT THE PUBLIC.

Mr Freeze: perhaps you'll understand if I put it this way: don't hate the player, hate the game.

The only reason that clubs will refer to themselves as playing "hip-hop" music (or "house" or whatever) is simply because that's what the clubgoers in Vegas understand. Whether tourists, regulars or locals, what matters is what "hip-hop" means to them.

It's absolutely mind-boggling that you have such a serious beef about this in a town like Vegas. There is not a city on earth that is driven more by marketing and promotion and less by authenticity.

[djsienpileggi]

okay Mr Freeze..now i have to go on the offensive here, just to clue you in on the HERE AND NOW, it might be lengthy but please bare with me...

First off, I as a DJ, (and a person with PRETTY MUSCLES) dont particularly like toting around 2 or 3 or however many crates of records to gigs. But I, like every other DJ in the world, had to go through this because AT THE TIME there was no other way, until the advent of STANTONS Final Scratch and RANES "SERATO". This is a use of digitaly stored music (mp3. or wave or aiff) files.. Same songs. same sounds,same everything except it weighs not even 1gram(and im sure a few of us know what 1 grams looks like) with the help of specially designed software, hardware, and vinyl encoder records, I myself am able to carry over 1100 songs within my laptop or external harddrive.
Now try doing a gig with 2 or 3 or even 5 DJ's at large events like i have, with only records, and see what kind of MESS it creates. Everyone has crates and bags everywhere. Now you can go to a gig and JACK IN
while someone is nearing the end of their set. no mess no fumbling.
Now before you say anything about OH WELL THOSE ARE HOUSE OR TRANCE DJ's using it, sorry to burst any newly formed bubbles, but Scratch DJ's .. Turntablists and beat jugglers use the system as well.. and all with outstanding results.(much props to those guys.. they have crazy skills)

"Oh but its not vinyl its mp3' blah blah.. " Yes its the best of both worlds.. its digital sound (way better then analog or vinyl sound) with the traditional skills of using a turntable.. you can train wreck just as easily with the digital system.

"The computer is doing the mixing and beatmatching" Nope.. sorry once again. These systems do nothing of the sort, it is entirely the DJ doing all the work, the system cant choose what a sound or beat should feel like when coming out.. some might want to offset a beat with a vocal.. computers are smart, but not that smart (its a DJ THANG)

Now if you are confusing these two named systems for something you saw in a strip club like PCDJ or Traktor Studio or something.. I apologize for the long answer, thats purely for HOSTING MUSIC like at a strip club.. no mixing needed.. just put the next song in the list and fade into it and watch the TeTe's perform, but I dont think any club would use those.. The Industry standard is RANE's SERATO with IMAC powered computers.. Every club in the MGM GRAND has this system. Every club in the world pretty much has this setup. I have been with these systems since they came out.. was one of the first people in vegas to purchase and use it before the clubs did, so dont try to mock me with stupid replies, because I have done ALLLLL of my homework, and wrote the book on using these. I have spent alot of money on all my records and spent ALOT of money on these systems.. now i have ripped all of my records to my laptop and take them with me.

so in close, if you want to keep the original feel to your gig, and original look, and OG style.. then make sure you help DJ P carry ALLLLL of his records..Dont bitch about how heavy they are . or. theres no room in your car for them.... Then after awhile you will see the light.

Good post bro.

For the life of me I can't figure out why anyone would attack a DJ for using whatever medium he wants to use, to throw an established party. It's pure jealousy, and in this case trolling for attention too.

Thank you for taking the time to explain this to me.
But I already know this.
I think its great that you can have ten million songs in a lap top, fine but the art of turn tabling is an art, in witch a DJ has to go thru his wax and make his show happen, its much more exciting for the crowd to watch, that is if you a live hip hop DJ. the computer is great if your put in the back of a club in a box and your purely playing a song and mixing for the dance crowd. COOL.
But there are large groups of people that come into a club and also want to be entertained, and as you know most DJ's are just record players.
DJ P is a real hip hop DJ when people come to see him they know there going to be wowed by the music his own mixes and style, his job as a hip hop DJ is to rock a crowd, and when I say that I don't mean playing gold digger.
My point is with this CD webmasterf is if your going to call your club hip hop then please stop cheating the public and give them what you say.
Anyway take care of yourself nice cheating with you.…

Okay. So your point is clear.

So why do you have to bring up every other day by making threads, like this one, that only gets 37 page views.

FYI ... 400 page views, which only one thread has more of on this page, is not 400 people. Nor is 200 page views 200 people.

Freeze can try to bait me as many times as he wants. I don't dj to show off, or see my picture on flyers or any of that. I just enjoy being part of a hot spot every week. People don't come to the club to watch the dj juggle vinyl. They dance and hook up, etc. This is Vegas. People come here to have fun. Nobody cares if a dj uses vinyl or 8 track tapes for that matter. Other than Freeze, I have not had one person EVER come up to us and ask why we don't spin records. It's completely irrelevant. But it makes him happy to argue about this every day, so be it, whatever floats his jealous boat.

Even if you wanted to show off, you could't,you play CD's you have no skills.
Flipping records is what hip hop DJ's do.
The culture of hip hop is all a battle fool.
1) DJ's always battled in clubs to show off there skills.
2)B,Boys battled in clubs to show for the crowd,
cause the people in the club loved to see a battle, they always did and always will.
3)Mc's battled to show off there lyrical skills.
Graff writers also would battle. But we cant do that in a club.
So stop with your bullshit excuses, if your going to call your spot, Hip Hop then stop rapping the public and give them what you say.
But the facts are that you spot has nothing to do with this culture
Ya nobody asks because if your spot was hip hop it would just happen anyway.
I'm not baiting you IM simply saying that your spot is not Hip Hop that's all...
Fake whack and nothing with this culture hip hop.

OK we suck and I have no skills. Come early to avoid getting shut out. Lots of sheep looking to drop $30 to $50 to see how bad we are.

So let me get this right. If the place doesnt use vinyl, it has no right to call itself a hiphop spot?

[marcblemberg]

Ya vinyl with the DJ mixing scratching and giving a visual along with an incredible remix show.
Putting a 50 cent CD in a sound system does not make a club hip hop.
That's right.
What's so hard to understand?
