"...He would take his mother's B.B. King and Johnnie Taylor records and scratch them on the turntable the way DJs did, slowing the spinning disc and then allowing it to speed back up, playing with sound. Davis began buying records of his own and would spin with his friend Trey Adkins, who would rhyme. "Screw had a jam box", Adkins told Texas Monthly, "and he hooked up two turntables to it and made a fader out of the radio tuner so he could deejay." Adkins said if Robert Earl didn't like a record, he would deface it with a screw. One day Adkins asked him, "Who do you think you are, DJ Screw?"..."



ya'll probably don't care about Screw, but this June 27th Freestyle is the most iconic DJ Screw inspired recording ever.

people around Houston still remember this recording every June 27th...

all the hip/hop radio stations play this 35 minute freestyle, which features some of the all-time great Houston rappers and freestylers.

it started with a birthday party for a dude named D-Mo - quite a few people passed around a mic for 35 minutes while DJ Screw the record.

no one knew it would have turned into the most remembered and listened to rap songs in Houston.

How ironic, I just posted that I plan to get one (A Grammy) for a New Year resolution.

That's awesome though! I'd love to attend the Grammy Awards!

I've been a record producer unofficially since I was 16 years old (just turned 30 couple days ago) and have been officially making profit from music this past year.

My current setup:

FL studio 10
Axiom 61 key midi keyboard
KRK Rockit 6 V2's
Focusrite Saffire Pro interface
2 TB hardrive PC with 8 gigs of RAM (Gonna switch to Mac soon)
Maschine
AKG C414 and MXL-890 Mics with pop filter and reflexion filter
All Mogami cables

Most notable artist I've worked with is The Game.

My genres are hip hop, pop, R&B, dubstep, boom-bap, electronic, and experimental.

I'd love to work with: Jhene Aiko, Lorde, Childish Gambino, Pharrell, (obviously) Kendrick Lamar, Calvin Harris, AfroJack, Rihanna, and James Fauntleroy.

Here's a link to some older music of mine www.soundcloud.com/tpratt

Let's talk!
I could prob Link you up With Dj carnage. Hes getting big now, does house and trap music. Hes actually living in LA now. He is a DJ. Not sure if you heard of him or not.
