On The Watch “It’s All About The Miami Heat and The 3 Headed Monsters”

The Miami Heat and The 3 Headed Monsters have officially silenced all the Nay Sayers by successfully completing their first Back 2 Back Championship in a convincing manner. REAL TALK! With that being said the new NBA Season is set to start on Tuesday October 29, 2013 and from seeing all the Off-Season shuffles that various team have put forth, I’m thinking this year might just top the crazy year that just passed. REAL TALK!

Key players that were hurt on various teams are now back in full effect; many trades were made for better or for worst but one thing is for sure many teams will be looking to make that leap this year and enter the race for that No. 1 Spot held by The Defending Champs Miami Heat. REAL TALK!

Once again newer rivalries are being made from the EAST/WEST and old ones are still going strong. I’m looking forward to see who will claims the 5 Burrows between Brooklyn/New York and curious to see who will dominate the West with all those Key players who have relocated to change the landscape on the West Side!

The East will definitely be exiting this year but the looming question still remains, the most IMPORTANT one. Which team will be strong enough and good enough to Dethrone The 3 Headed Monsters and The Miami Heat from their No 1 Spot! Let the 2013/2014 NBA Season begin!!

On The Watch “It’s All About 2013 NBA Champs The Miami Heat “

There is a reason why teams work so hard to finish with the best record for the season in the NBA; that is for when the time comes and you actually make it to the playoffs and end up in the finals with a Game 7 on the line “The House” will carry you over to the finish line. The HEAT did just that last night and that was “DEFENDING THE HOUSE AT ALL COST” The HEAT captured their first Back 2 Back title and LeBron his second NBA Finals MVP.

I tip my “B” hat to them Boys in Miami cause them Dudes came to play. This series was no “Cake Walk”, the Spurs gave them all they could but going against “The House” and the 3 Headed Monsters was just too much for them to handle. It was a HELL of series from Game I to the final deciding Game 7.

I congratulate the Miami Heat team for stepping up to the plate and defending their Championship like true winners they are. This was definitely a second title well earned.

Describe your style?

My style might be different from the norm considering I don’t like to scream and shout on the mic…I like to let my music do the talking for me. I’m pretty versatile on them “12′s” and I can “bob and weave” with the best of them when it comes to the music game. I try not to stay in a box and keep things moving depending on the vibe or the city I’m in.

What was the first record you start scratching and mixing on the turntables?
First off I’m not a trick DJ, that’s not my thing but REAL TALK! my first record I started scratching with was Audio Two’s Top Billin…that beat on that track was just ridiculous…
