Yeah, check out the footage of Toronto's Turnstylez crew, at the '98 ITF Western Hemisphere Category battle, if you want to see another example of that. It's on here.
YO THAT NIGHT(I WAS THERE)I WENT FROM HAVING NO FAITH IN WEST COAST DJ TO GIVING THOSE BROTHERS MAD RESPECT-WE ALREADY KNEW ALADDIN WON AFTER HE GOT OFF.16 DOING DAMAGE-I WAS 20 AND SEEING A 16 YEAR OLD RIP IT DOWN LIKE THAT WAS LIKE AMAZING.THIS IS WHY HE IS A LEGEND.
That was dope! I see Miz over there too. That was also before we turned the tables side ways. Imagine how much faster Aladdin would have been. Man Oh Man.
I noticed MC Serch was confused as hell watching something he never saw before, priceless footage. Actually i consider this the best DMC set of all time, nobody today can match this. Also the music was waaay doper back then, no corny trap beats.
WOW!, JUST WITNESSED THIS I'LL DOPE FOOTAGE OF LEGENDARY DJ ALADDIN ON THE WHEELS OF STEEL IN HIS PRIME RIPPING ISH UP! RELENTLESS, TENACIOUS ON POINT PROFESSIONAL WEST COAST BROTHER!. A REAL DOPE CLASSIC ARCHIVAL TREAT!. THANX,PEACE AND TURNTABLES!!!.
WELL STEVE DEE ALREADY HAD THE BREAKDOWN-HE AND ALADDIN WERE ON THE SAME TOUR THE YEAR BEFORE ON THE DOPE JAM TOUR OF 1988-ALADDIN WAS WITH ICE-T AND STEVE WAS WITH DOUG E FRESH AND THE GET FRESH CREW.ALSO.STEVE WAS SUPPOSED TO HAVE BEEN IN THAT BATTLE THAT NIGHT BUT DIDNT QUALIFY DUE TO TECHNICAL DIFFICULTIES CONCERNING HIS NEEDLES.HOWEVER HE STILL SHOWED UP AT THE BATLE.I KNOW FOR SURE BECAUSE I WAS THERE THAT COLD SATURDAY NIGHT WHERE IT OOK PLACE NEAR DELANCY STREET.
In order to take my DJ Skills & Styles or Advanced DJ Skills classes at The New School you have to be enrolled at the university as a student. I teach private lessons via Skype too though.
I AGREE-HE WOULD BE SO DOPE RITE NOW-THATS WHY WHEN I SAW HIM ON THE SCRATCHCON DVD.IT HURT MY HEART THAT HE WASNT THE SAME SKILL WISE LIKE HE WAS BACK IN THE LATE 80'S EARLY 90'S BUT HE IS STILL AROUND DOING MUSIC.
@@j-boogiebrown9961 - Drunk, true man. But i think it was also intentionally drunk like Aladdin sending a message of "im celebrating life after setting the pace for all the newer cats, and PAID MY DUES, cuz no matter how silly I'm about to get tonight, you all learned a piece of what you know, from me (and Joe Cooley: The King Of Scratch)".
