In an earlier post about Bay Area Hyphy, I wrote that I am officially "old school" because I now get my Hip Hop news from MSNBC. What I didn’t mention is that I really was a DJ in high school. I DJ’ed dances  playing a lot of 80′s Hip Hop and dance music.

I even once got in trouble for playing an N.W.A. song at a high school dance. (see picture on right of N.W.A.’s first and least known album)

Hip Hop music has always been a bit of a passion for me and speaking of passion for Hip Hop, I urge you to check this out…

The DJ Project:

The DJ Project classes in audio production, DJ-ing and breakdancing are
currently underway. Stay tuned for dates/times for our next graduation
performance.

Youth from The DJ Project are busy planning "Grind and
Glory" – a 3-part music series for youth and young adults that are eager to
enter the music industry. The first phase of Grind and Glory is a music
conference for aspiring hip-hop artists, 15-25, who are serious about their
business but still need some polish before they can shine.

pre-register for the Music Conference on Saturday, May 27th at SFSU’s College of
Extended Learning (425 Market Street), click here.
