J-KEY - THE POTENTIAL

2011-07-10T21:12:00.000-07:00

It's not everyday you run into somebody that works as hard as J-Key! I remember meeting him outside a show in Seattle & building real quick. We exchanged numbers & I had conversations where I knew he was picking my brain about a lot of aspects of the music industry. I've seen that from a lot of successful people & fast forward a year & change here he is with a DJ B-MELLO mixtape presented by Sermons Domain! You might have heard him on the SEA 2 MIA & INDIE HEAT 3 with some of people's favorite cuts "Spacewalk" & "I'm Wassup". I would suggest you get "The Potential" when it drops on I-Tunes or hit him up for more information on getting a physical copy of the CD! @TheOnlyJKey

GetSchooled.com is the website you need to check out! The tour rolled into Seattle's today & Franklin High School was the 1st stop. Grammy award winner COMMON was in the building along with SWAY from MTV/The Wake Up Show! I got to rock the 1s & 2s for the entire show & even spun for Common who did a freestyle over Who Dat. He also performed his hit Universal Mind Control & had rocked the joint GO which wasn't scheduled! (Good thing I had the Instrumental). There was a lot more to the event. It's a great program that is definitely getting a message through to the youth to make education a priority!! Check out some footage from the event:

X-Box 360 courtesy of Doritos

2010-08-23T15:11:00.001-07:00

So my son asks me to buy him a 99 cent bag of Doritos & is like "Dad, you can win stuff". I buy it for him and he doesn't eat them right away. About 2 weeks later he breaks 'em out & finishes 'em & asks me to check online to see if the bag is a winner. It says every bag is a winner. I'm thinking "yeah right", but I enter the code & it says we won an X-Box 360. I was so suprised, but this is back at the end of May I believe. Anyway, I entered all my info & kept checking back, but didn't hear anything. I knew the contest was over at the end of July, but still hadn't heard any word. I'm sitting at the computer with the winning bag and googling to find a contact number to call and ask about it when the UPS man rings the doorbell. To my suprise it's the X-Box 360 we won. A Special Edition Final Fantasy XIII X-Box 360. My 10 yr old is so excited! I just heard him on the phone telling his friends! Normally I throw away packages with contests on 'em like Snickers for example. From now on I am definitely gonna keep 'em & check the codes!!

JAKE ONE - TOWN BIZ MIXTAPE

2010-04-27T01:47:00.000-07:00

One of Seattle's best producers Jake One not only makes the slappers, but he has been a big collector & fan of Seattle rap since way back. He's compiled a mixtape which showcases over 20 years of 206 music & teamed up with Stussy & Goods to release it.

I personally have a lot of memories of hearing these different joints!

What's funny is I actually am on two of the tracks. I rap on #6 "Shit Hits The Fan" & scratch on #7 "Nightfall Round The Way".

Download it here for FREE & check it out. Seattle has a long history that is relatively unknown outside of the region, but it seems like with advocates like Jake One then that might just change!

DJ B-MELLO - THE BOMB (RARE MIXTAPE)

2010-04-25T17:43:00.001-07:00

This is one of my classic mixtapes from 1993. Wu-Tang joints on it before the first album dropped, Company Flow's first joint, a lot of flavor from that era just check the tracklist!

This one was never available on CD or digitally at all, but after a long wait it's finally here! I'm really excited to have this one!

You can get also get a copy of this by sending a donation via paypal to:

Natlradio@aol.com

You will receive links to download the mp3 (320kbps) files in your e-mail.

The suggested donation is $10-15, but times are tough so whatever's clever!

If you would like to burn this on CD then specify that & we will send it broken down into

individual tracks instead of 2 (side A & side B).

REST IN PEACE DJ HIDEO!

2010-04-24T18:08:00.000-07:00

Rest in Peace to my friend Hideo Sugano. Rob One was the first friends I really lost to cancer and also a fellow DJ. The difference with DJ Hideo is that I knew it was coming and was a little more prepared. With Guru I was somewhat prepared as well when finding out about his coma, although I didn't know about his cancer. When Rakim said "Serious as cancer" he wasn't joking!

Let's help fight & find a cure! Do what you can to support that! I think you can donate for funeral expenses and his daughter at DJHideo.com!

For those that don't know my first ALL DJ crew (before Shadyville, CORE, Henchmen, TechNitions, etc..) was NRC and DJ HIdeo was one of the few members from around the country. It was a small crew of about 10-15 at the most. DJ AP hold your head! Anyway, just wanted to share that and a picture from an Urban Network panel that we were on together back in the day. Just O (RIP) was also on that panel. It hurts to lose colleagues and friends, but we keep pushing on!

DJ Premier's Official statement

2010-04-21T16:47:00.001-07:00

DOWNLOAD DJ PREMIER'S - TRIBUTE MIX

IT WAS A SAD DAY FOR ME TO GET CONFIRMATION ON THE DEATH OF A MAN WHO I WILL CONTINUE TO CALL MY BROTHER, KEITH ELAM, BETTER KNOWN AS GURU OF THE LEGENDARY GANG STARR.

FROM 1988-2004, WE EXPERIENCED SO MUCH SUCCESS TOGETHER THAT WE WERE ABLE TO EXPAND OUR BUSINESSES INDEPENDENTLY AND GIVE EACH OTHER WHAT GURU CALLED “CREATIVE SPACE”, BEFORE PLANNING TO REUNITE FOR OUR 7TH LP WHEN THE TIME WAS RIGHT. TRAGICALLY, WE WILL NEVER REACH THAT DAY.

I’VE BEEN ASKED TO COMMENT ON A LETTER SPEAKING ILL OF ME WHICH WAS SUPPOSEDLY WRITTEN BY GURU IN HIS DYING DAYS. ALL I WILL SAY ABOUT IT IS THAT OUR TIME TOGETHER WAS BEAUTIFUL, WE BUILT A HIP HOP LEGACY TOGETHER, AND NO ONE CAN RE-WRITE HISTORY OR TAKE AWAY MY LOVE FOR HIM. ONE THING I WOULD NEVER DO IS PLAY AROUND WITH THE TRUTH ABOUT HIS LIFE.

I WILL CELEBRATE GURU’S LIFE… I WILL HONOR HIS MEMORY… I WILL GRIEVE WITH THE ELAM FAMILY OVER HIS UNTIMELY DEATH… I WILL REMEMBER THE GANG STARR FOUNDATION AND ALL OF THE ORIGINAL MEMBERS OF GANG STARR WHO CAME BEFORE ME – WE ALL KNOW EACH OTHER… MOSTLY, I WILL CHERISH EVERYTHING WE CREATED TOGETHER AS GANG STARR, FOREVER. I’M GONNA MISS HEARING HIS SIGNATURE MONOTONE VOICE WHEN HE WALKS IN THE ROOM, BUT THE SONGS WILL ALWAYS BRING IT BACK TO ME….HIS RHYME FLOWS WERE INSANE, AND I WILL NEVER REMOVE HIM FROM MY HEART AND SOUL…….REST IN PEACE TO THE MAN WHO FELT “SATISFACTION FROM THE STREET CROWD REACTION” … I LOVE YOU GOO…….DJ PREMIER

DJ Premier's statement link

Guru's family's statement

2010-04-21T12:30:00.000-07:00

Guru's family released a statement (courtesy of CNN)

“The Elam family wishes to thank the fans of our son/brother/father uncle/nephew/cousin Keith aka Guru for the outpouring of love, concern and support. Our hearts are broken by the loss of someone we loved so much. Guru was devoted to his young son, who will most keenly feel his absence.”

“Guru suffered from multiple myeloma for over a year. Accrued complications from this illness led to respiratory failure and cardiac arrest. As a result, Guru was in a coma from mid February until his death and never regained consciousness."

"Early on the morning of April 19, he became hypertensive due to low blood pressure. He again went into cardiac arrest and slipped away from us.”

“Guru died far too young but he was, and we are, proud of all his many legendary musical contributions.”

“The family is not aware of any foundations established by Guru. We know and understand that countless fans want to express their condolences and love and, to that end, we are planning a memorial event in the near future that will be all-inclusive. Please look for further details from the family as they become available.

GURU of GANG STARR - RIP!

2010-04-20T14:55:00.000-07:00

RIP G.U.R.U. of GANG STARR

2010-04-20T08:39:00.001-07:00

Anybody that knows me knows that I am and was a big Gang Starr fan since the late 80s.

The homie Rob One (RIP) brought Guru to Seattle and that was the first time I got to connect on a personal level with him and will never forget them both. As hip hop grows in age we lose some of the real soldiers and pioneers.

I remember being with Guru in NYC when we received the news that Jam Master Jam (RIP) passed away and will never forget watching a grown man older than me crying.

That hit home with me. JMJ was the first DJ I met in '85 and as a kid that impacted me so much. He told me to stick with DJing and I did and I'm sure Guru's connection with JMJ was much deeper!

Personally I felt over the past few years that Guru was lost. I was always disappointed that he wasn't rollin' with DJ Premier and often wondered what was going on in his head. I know he had a lot of issues, but at the end of the day I felt he was being influenced by his new partner Solar.

I was really excited that one of my mixtape fellow mixtape legends Doo Wop was DJing for Guru and traveling around with him and Solar for a while, but still in the back of my mind was hoping that he would reunite with DJ Premier.

There were many sides to Guru and he had some real issues that he had to deal with long before this Cancer hit him, but at the end of the day that is all over and this man has touched so many people Worldwide!!

His legacy won't be forgotten from Gang Starr to the Jazzmatazz series and even his other works and guest appearances. Keith Elam aka Keithy E. The Guru aka Gifted Unlimited Rhymes Universal please Rest In Peace now!

p.s. I read a disturbing note on Primo's blog. This is rediculous to me, but check it for yourself. RIP Guru. Hold your head Premier! G A N G to the Starr Son!! Haters took this shit too far son!!

Here's one of the few R&B flavor Mixtapes I did. I did a lot of blends incorporating R&B, but not many mixtapes that leaned that way. Definitely some R&B/Hip-Hop classics & different mixes. Enjoy! Big shout out to Cassandra from 206 Zulu on the rip!

DJ B-MELLO - B-DAY '96 (DOWNLOAD)
http://www.megaupload.com/?d=CJINGLPI

This is one of the mixtapes that people have been asking me about that wasn't a blend tape. It was a regular "update" joint. It basically was pt 2 to Doin' My Thing, but it was on my B-Day in January of 1996 so we called it the Birthday tape & the rest was history!!!

I actually passed hundreds of these out in ATL at Gavin 96 & then ended up distributing thousands on cassette. This was never on CD. It was bootlegged a great deal & dist. through Master copies as well. ENJOY!!

We’ll see you on Monday!

Macklemore - The Town

2009-12-24T12:08:00.001-08:00

I REALLY LIKE THIS VIDEO. THE CAMERA WORK IS DOPE.

IT WAS ALSO COOL TO HEAR MY NAME SAMPLED IN THERE AT THE BEGINNING & TO HEAR MACK RHYMIN' ABOUT SHOWS LIKE HIEROGLYPHICS & ALKAHOLIKS AT THE RKCNDY. DJ SCENE ALWAYS TOLD ME THAT'S WHERE HE FIRST SAW ME SPINNING.

I REMEMBER FIRST HAND & ACTUALLY PROMOTED AND DJ'D SOME OF THE CLASSIC UNDERGROUND SHOWS AROUND TOWN IN THE 90S SUCH AS THOSE TWO AS WELL AS BLACK MOON, GZA, PETE ROCK & CL SMOOTH, ETC... OF COURSE I DJ'D TONS OF SHOWS WITH EVERYBODY MENTIONED IN THE SONG SO IT REALLY HITS HOME.

SEEING PICTURES AND FLYERS FROM THE TOWN IS ALSO DOPE. HERE'S ONE OF MYSELF, ISH (DIGABLE PLANETS/SHABAZZ PALACES) & HIS DAUGHTER OBVIOUSLY TAKEN ON THE SAME DAY AS THE ONE WITH HIM & MIKE C. AT OUR KCMU "RAP ATTACK" RADIO SHOW.

ALSO GREAT TO SEE THE ZULU'S REPPIN MY DUDE TALKSICK! RIP TO MY MAN JAMES "TALKSICK" SULLIVAN WHO WAS AN AVID SUPPORTER & FAN OF HIP-HOP. WE HAD PLANS TO ARCHIVE ALL MY MIXTAPES, BUT HIS LIFE WAS CUT SHORT! BIG SHOUT OUT TO HIS LADY CASSANDRA WHO'S TAKING OFF WHERE HE LEFT OFF IN HIS QUEST TO ARCHIVE & DOCUMENT A LOT OF THE HIP-HOP CULTURE FROM THE NORTHWEST & BEYOND!

IN CLOSING I JUST WANNA SAY THAT THERE WAS A VIBRANT & PROMISING SCENE IN THE 90s IN SEATTLE & IT DIDN'T START THERE. ALL THE WAY FROM THE 70s ON UP SEATTLE HAS BEEN PUTTING IT DOWN AS FAR AS HIP-HOP. THE COOLOUT NETWORK HAS A DOCUMENTARY THAT WILL BE COMING OUT THAT WILL SHED SOME LIGHT ON THE HISTORY, BUT DON'T STOP THERE. TAKE SOME TIME & BUILD WITH SOME OF THE O.G.s IN THE AREA. I'M SURE MOST HAVE STORIES FOR DAYS!!

DJ B-MELLO - NINE-FIVE pt.2 (1995)

2009-11-16T09:48:00.000-08:00

Previously I've grabbed all of my old mixtapes from other people's blogs from around the world. I finally had a chance to find some in storage. This one is from 1995 and it's great to hear one from this point in hip-hop. R.I.P. to Biggie & ODB who are no longer with us. Big Shout out to Mike Clark who transferred this from the original cassette tape. Enjoy:

Classic B-Mello Blend - Groove Theory's TELL ME

2009-10-07T12:33:00.001-07:00

This is one of my blends from the 2002 Mixtape "Burnin' Tha Block"

I did this mixape with Jerzey Love after the success of pt. 1 in 2001. I will most likely rip & post this entire mixtape sometime in the future. This one was on CD so it's a little easier!

RIP the Legendary Mr. Magic (WBLS Rap Attack)

2009-10-02T08:46:00.000-07:00

I have to send condolences to the family & friends of Super Rockin' MR. MAGIC aka Sir Juice! He passed away from a heart attack.

Mr. Magic & Marley Marl are the main influences in why I got into radio and DJing. I remember listening to tapes and Mr. Magic would say "put the mixing gloves on Marley" and it'd be on. Time for the mix! The "Juice Crew" jumped off from his show & sparked the careers of the legendary Roxanne Shante, Biz Markie, Big Daddy Kane, Kool G Rap, Masta Ace, Craig G, & many more!! He put out compilation albums Rap Attack vol 1-5 (I believe) that exposed me to many of the early rap joints.

If you know the history then you can only imagine how devastated a lot of founding fathers in the hip-hop game feel right now. I can still hear the female sweeper "Mista Mista Magic Magic Is Here" & also the male one "Mista Mista Magic Magic Super Super Blast Blast Powwwwww" which was on Whodini's first record. They had the song "Magic's Wand" dedicated to him on that album.

Anyway, I can go on & on. About 10 years after listening to WBLS tapes I actually got my start in radio on a show named after the legendary "Rap Attack", but accross the country in Seattle. Of course he was immortalized in the classic Notorious BIG joint "Juicy" with the line "every Saturday Night Rap Attack - Mr. Magic, Marley Marley Marl"

OLD SCHOOL DJ B-MELLO Circa 1993 PETER PIPER

2009-09-12T01:36:00.001-07:00

This footage is really old. Big shout out to the COOLOUT NETWORK! Georgio has been puttin' it down in the 206 for 18+ years. Big up Kitty Wu too for tons of work since the 90s. Check out the video of me at the L.O.N.S. show cuttin up Peter Piper.

OK! This other video is from the performance we did w/ Jace that night. We had a posse cut I was on so you can see me on the mic along with Jace & Specs. It starts off w/ Supreme cuttin up Vaughn Mason & then you can see me on the MIC... I didn't know this existed until last week.

Rest In Peace Adam "DJ A.M." Goldstein

2009-08-28T20:14:00.000-07:00

DJ A.M. changed the game. So many DJs around the world looked up to him and he was so inspirational to me and many of my friends. He helped pioneer the movement of thinking outside the box and playing multiple genres at parties all around the world. Call it Mashup, but we call it Deejaying. We've always done that. Ask Flash, Ask Herc, Ask Bam, Ask Jazzy Jay. DJ AM knew that. He respected the hip hop culture and at the same time he knew all sorts of other genres of music and wasn't afraid to push the envelope! He totally changed the game!

RIP my dude
