DJ wanted in LA. (new dj's only)

Dj Ryme 8:27 PM - 13 September, 2006
Yo I need someone that wants to get into clubs and learn the club game as well as get backstage at some dope hip-hop shows, you will be able to open for me at the clubs I do from Hollywood to O.C. All you gotta do is drive me to my gigs. Why you ask? because I like to drink and I dont feel like getting a DUI. This post might seem funny but im serious, if you drive me around I will show you how to get into these clubs, I will introduce you to these promoters and you will be on stage with me at spots like the Key Club, House of Blues ETC. at shows like Too Short, KRS-One, Lupe Fiasco ETC. This is a golden opprotunity for someone that just got into the game. Let me know.
Dj KaGeN 8:29 PM - 13 September, 2006
ok, sing me up.
a-swift 8:29 PM - 13 September, 2006
This is fucking awesome. All I ever got out of the new jacks was having them carry a crate or two! I should have aimed higher!
Dj Ryme 8:32 PM - 13 September, 2006
ha ha, but for real man, I would have took this when I just started.... you guys know what I do, whoever is serious about this will come up.
scotty B 8:32 PM - 13 September, 2006
I am not a new Dj... but I am new to the "Club Scene"... Sign me up! get at me.
Dj Ryme 8:33 PM - 13 September, 2006
Kagen your in clubs already buddy ha ha.
Dj Ryme 8:34 PM - 13 September, 2006
Anyone that is serious hit me up on myspace.

Dj Ryme 8:34 PM - 13 September, 2006
gas money will be provided ;)
Dj Ryme 8:40 PM - 13 September, 2006
Anyone close to Long Beach would be ideal.

Also anyone without any job restrictions as some clubs are on weeknights and go until 2am.
DJ_Mike_Coquilla 8:40 PM - 13 September, 2006
skeet skeet skeet... yo bro, kill it!
D-Twizzle 8:44 PM - 13 September, 2006
Sounds like a golden opportunity for a lucky kid.
a-swift 8:59 PM - 13 September, 2006
shit, young cats should be kicking eachother in the nuts to get at this opportunity. just this year alone ryme has opened for The Alkaholics, Too Short, Bubba Sparxxx, Digital Underground, Lupe Fiasco, Slick Rick, Chino XL and that's just the few that I remember or went to with him. That's not even including the clubs, that's just hip hop shows!
Dj KaGeN 9:06 PM - 13 September, 2006
Well - who is it?? you shoulda had about 900 applicants by now.

yeah, he's in house clubs. KaGeN needs some more hip-hop in his life :-)
Dj Ryme 9:10 PM - 13 September, 2006
lol swift.
DJ Limelight 9:52 PM - 13 September, 2006
The DJ of the Month Award goes to..... DJ Ryme! ... Word man. The DJ game has gotten very cut-throat because they're aren't enough DJ's doin' stuff like this. Few people are willing to help out younger/less experienced cats. So younger dudes feel like they need to resort to below-board tactics in order to get gigs.
sG 9:53 PM - 13 September, 2006
Remember the thread about drinking on the DJ job? Oh those were the days... haha.

Sounds cool. I'm not in LA enough to sign up. Plus I'm tryin ta get paid! ;)
Dj KaGeN 9:55 PM - 13 September, 2006
tru dat... Ok - Dub - I want the shift part time.
double B 9:55 PM - 13 September, 2006
Wow! this would be amazing if i was 21 and lived in LA. Too bad im 15 and live in the bay area =[
djaction 9:57 PM - 13 September, 2006
DAMN DAMN DAMN! I WOULDA ALREADY PICKED YOU UP.

Wrong coast though!
Someone in the NY area needs to step up and do this as well!
Dj Ryme 10:19 PM - 13 September, 2006
ha ha, yeah it's really a win win situation, I need a ride so I can get drunk, and in return im kickin down some knowledge that most peeps (including myself) had to learn on my own.....

6 years ago I would have jumped on something like this in a heartbeat.
GoodVibez 12:00 AM - 14 September, 2006
shit yeah if you was in ohio Id be down
sG 12:02 AM - 14 September, 2006

Now you know that's not gonna happen out here like that bro! Too many egos in the NYC.
Alliances would need to be made with egos put aside.


I remember back in the day of The Palladium in Union Square. Once or twice I got in free. All I did was carry the DJ's crates. He was a cool ass cat like that. I got access to the booth where I was able to observe the trade. Good times!
Dj Ryme 2:08 AM - 14 September, 2006
Looks like ive found the guy. He's a friend of CQuence, he lives right here in the L.B. and he's been spinnin for 3 years. If he's serious im gonna put him on. Thanks everyone that hit me up, if he doesnt work out I will let you guys know.
