Can I be honest? I haven’t practiced everyday for more than a week in over 3 years 🥴 I don’t say this to brag but out of shame because I knew the toll it took on my skill, my sound, and my love for DJing. Even after 15 years of DJing (I can’t believe it’s been that long) I NEED TO PRACTICE! YOU NEED TO PRACTICE!

I liken it to Kobe, MJ, LeBron or Steph. As great as they are, they are in the gym EVERY. SINGLE. DAY. PERIOD. It took me falling out of love for DJing to realize this and I knew what contributed to falling out of love.

1. Life - it gets the best of us. I had kids, started a business, quit my job, constant change and it pulled me away.

2. Moving back to a city where the sounds and music I grew to love wasn’t appreciated (Oh Dallas…this is going to be another post in itself lol)

3. The pressures to perform versus just be. It’s a blessing to share this gift and it’s about the impact on the person receiving, not how it makes you look in front of everyone (We WILL discuss this more at a later time lol)

All this to say, never stop practicing, never stop learning, never stop listening, never stop discovering. Share you gift with the world and steward that gift properly. Clips from last night discovery sessions jumping back into the styles and genres of music I actually want to share and not the music I’ve been confined to

If you actually made it to the end of this and felt it, drop a 🎧 and let me know if this is helped in anyway. Otherwise, let me save all these texts for convos with wifey 😂

POV: It’s 2004 • 9PM on a Saturday Night in Dallas and you turn on the radio to tune into an hour of straight Chopped & Screwed music!

I grew up addicted to chopped & screwed music! It was the first thing that made me want to learn how to DJ even though I didn’t understand how they were getting the song to sound like that. I would search Kazaa & Limewire high and low searching for my favorite songs C&S.

The first time I heard Southside Da Realest it wad C&S and I ran to my boombox to record it. I would listen to it literally every day to the point I remembered where all of the chops were and rapped the song like that 😂

What I didn’t realise was the level of turntablism and skill that chopping and screwed a record live took. 20+ years later, I’m blessed to be able to chop and screw my own songs as a music lover and a turntablist!

What’s your favorite C&S version of a song?? Me? It’s Gone x N’Sync HANDS DOWN!

Proud Boyfriend Moment - Can I tell y’all about this woman right here? If you keep up with either of us, you know healthy/clean living is something we strive for (except when we are being fat asses on cheat dayS; it’s plural for a reason 😂)

Gardening is something we have always talked about wanting to do but no we are no longer taking about it thanks to her. She started on this journey two months, 26 plants, and countless number of trips ago.

The effort, time, & dedication she has given this new hobby/way of life is inspiring! It’s fun watching how excited she gets when she learns something new & I’ve enjoyed learning from her.

We found a local nursery that carried lavender & recently planted them in garden boxes we built ourselves. Sweet potatoes & onions were planted in those same boxes the next day. If you can’t tell, I’m proud of her! Go follow to keep up with her/our journey & for dope garden related content!
