REST IN PEACE DJ. MR. MAGIC NYC RADIO LEGEND!

2009-10-02T10:50:00.000-07:00

Mr. Magic, an important figure in the world of hip-hop radio, debuted in 1983 on WBLS-FM in New York City with the first exclusive rap radio show to be aired on a major station. Billing itself as Rap Attack, Magic's show featured Marley Marl as the DJ and Tyrone "Fly Ty" Williams as the show's co-producer. Magic's reign on the New york City airwaves lasted six years and was instrumental in broadening the scope and validity of hip-hop music.[1]

During the mid-80s there was a rivalry between Mr. Magic and Kool DJ Red Alert, who hosted a weekly show on WRKS-FM. The feud also played out between proxy rap groups, the Juice Crew and Boogie Down Productions (see The Bridge Wars). The Juice Crew - headed by Mr. Magic's on-air assistant, DJ Marley Marl - was named after one of Magic's aliases, "Sir Juice."[2]

As confirmed by DJ Premier, Mr. Magic died on the morning of October 2, 2009,[3] from a fatal heart attack

100% CO-SIGN! JAY-Z TLKS COMPETITION

2009-09-01T11:05:00.000-07:00

(sohh.com)
Hov also said he felt rappers like Nas and Eminem are more on his level.
"Not really that competitive, because the competition isn't based on real competition," Jay said in the October 2009 XXL Magazine. "I mean, Game, I'm his f*ckin idol. If you ask him and he's being truthfully honest with you it's just based off his insecurities and, for the most part, pretension. That type of competition doesn't do anything for me. It's almost like someone trying to set you up, and everyone knows they're to set you up, and everybody. It's just dumb. It's not in the spirit of competition, because he's not competition for me. He's not. Not then, not ever -- he'd have to improve considerably. Competition for me competition is Nas, Eminem. Like Jim Jones? That's ridiculous to me. So how do I respond to that? I can't win. If I win, then they'll be like, 'See. Now chill. You're a f*ckin' bully.' And if it manages to throw a haymaker from the West Coast, then it's like 'Oooooh.' It's not even fun. Like, before I did it, because I would diss anybody. Now who has time to do this sh*t everyday? But before, when I was running after the little fat n*gga from Mase's camp, I was doing anybody. Anybody said anything. If I thought you said something. When I was running in the streets, I wanted all that type of activity. Nobody wanted nothing. Now everybody's a tough guy." (XXL Mag)

OPEN LETTER REMEMBER THE TIMES..

2009-07-02T14:13:00.000-07:00

Thanks for the reply, Sphere. Yeah, they are great memories. I didn't write ever, but going to school in Bayside and living in Northeastern Queens, I saw a lot of writers while I was growing up. I was too young to be a part of it. I'm 29 now, started reading graff at age 7 or 8. From about 1987 to 1994, I caught the end of the trains and the whole highway era. I saw stuff by you, Cro, Saint, Sent, Ghost, Gato, Duel, Red, Duran, K-Pro, Smog, Dera, SEOD, SO, Neo,Stane, Dead, Vor, JA, Kite, Chille, PJay, Cope, Lost, Mirage, Tretal, and some others; too many to mention.

By the time I got to to Cardozo high school in 1995 and was old enough to do it, the graff world seemed like a fucking disaster, overrun with full goons that wrote as if their arms were broken. Now, don't get me wrong; I never wrote, nor am I a graff expert or some great artist. But the crispy style that the TMR and RIS guys from Queens had was vastly different than the junk that came out of NE Queens post-highway era.

The stuff that guys like you, Mirage, Stane, Duel, Dead, and Vor put up used to make the hairs on the back of my head and neck stand up. I'd drive to the Bronx just waiting to see the blue Mirage blockbuster with the feet on the Clearview. That comeback that you and Saint did on the 'Dozo handball courts.. there was one time I was just standing there admiring it, like I was frozen.

Again, I didn't write; but you guys' stuff really meant a lot to me growing up.

Thanks for the memories.
