djdocrok — Mon, 03 Aug 2009 18:22:11 +0000

Last time I gave you Bill & Ted’s Excellent Adventure (for hip hop), traveling back to 1971 to hear the Delfonics, 1973 to jam with MFSB, and even up to 1982 to rock with Michael McDonald. Well Vol. 2 is a lot better than “Bill & Ted’s Bogus Journey, so I guess that metaphor will have to die there, because check out this rockin’ tracklisting:

1. Bobby Byrd – I’m Not To Blame
2. Jay-Z – You Don’t Know
3. Willie Hutch – I Choose You
4. UGK ft. Outkast – Int’l Players Anthem
5. Bill Withers – Ain’t No Sunshine
6. DMX – Ain’t No Sunshine
7. Bobby Bland – Ain’t No Love In The Heart of The City
8. Jay-Z – Heart of the City
9. Hamilton, Joe Frank, & Reynold – Fallin in Love
10. Drake – Best I Ever Had
11. Kool & The Gang – Summer Madness
12. Digable Planets – Jimi Diggin Cats
13. Will Smith – Summertime
14. Roy Ayers – Feelin Good

How To Be An Internet Rapper Part II

djdocrok — Thu, 09 Jul 2009 12:36:56 +0000

Paid. You’ve heard a lot about it. You know you need to be. But how? How are you going to convince the world you’re a big-time baller/pimp/drug dealer while working part time at Papa John’s and living in your mom’s house? Fortunately, the internet doesn’t check your W-2’s to see just how paid you really are. Everyone knows that rich people usually keep large sums of cash on them, and may even bathe in it Scrooge McDuck style (cartoons never lie). To show that you, too, are obviously wealthy, simply head down to Al Harrington’s Check Cashing and Liqour Store Emporium and convert that pay stub to cold hard cash. Make sure to get small bills, then wrap a single $100, $50, or even $20 bill around the edge of your roll. Finally, pull out your trusty camera phone and share with the world (please disregard Biggie’s first Crack Commandment).

Incorrect: (Not Paid)

Correct: (PAID!!!)

As you can tell, I’m so paid in this last picture, I just can’t help but sneer at you unpaid masses. In fact, you disgust me. Go clean yourself up.

Policy Friday – 4th of July Kick Off Party

djdocrok — Thu, 02 Jul 2009 13:14:18 +0000

This Friday I am once again teaming up with Kevin Lance Murray and the good folks at Policy to bring you a night of super fun time:

I’ll be rockin from 10-2 playing a mix of old school hip hop, 80’s and some top 40. I will also probably do a down and dirty funk set real quick, as well as the MJ set (and I was doing that before he died)

How To Be An Internet Rapper Part I

djdocrok — Thu, 25 Jun 2009 14:49:45 +0000

As a DJ and producer with much history in the hip hop scene, I get a lot of requests on myspace, emails, and other various contacts on the internet from aspiring rappers. While occasionally one might actually be half-way decent or interesting, the vast majority seem to follow the same basic patterns. After one too many of these types of interactions, I’ve decided anyone can be an internet rapper, and furthermore, here are some basic rules to get you started on your career to internet, and eventually, real-world rap super stardom.

This series will be in installments, so stay tuned for more profession-enhancing posts!

I. Do Not Buy A Camera

So, you’ve just opened up your Myspace.com account and want start showing the world what a lavish, raptastic lifestyle you are living. While you may think that getting a professional photoshoot would show that you are serious about your career, that would be incorrect. Photoshoots can mean stylists or make-up, which could hurt your street cred, and require monetary investment, also unacceptable. No, the best way to represent yourself is to find the crappiest camera phone available and take pictures of yourself in the mirror. These pictures are best done with your shirt off, after all, you’re becoming an internet sex symbol, not just a rapper.

Incorrect:

Correct:

A bonus tip, not included in this example, is to flash gang signs you may have seen somewhere.

Also be sure to use your best “Mean Mug”, if you are unsure how to achieve optimum Mug status, there will be a later post on making silly faces.

Doc Rok’s Party Anthem!

djdocrok — Wed, 22 Apr 2009 18:45:03 +0000

Things have been pretty busy for me lately with non-music related life stuff, but I did just finish a really fun track that I’m calling my Party Anthem because its perfect for hyping up any (awesome) party, baltimore club style.

Free one way plane ticket to Afghanistan if you can name all the samples in it!

This Friday it’s once again time for my monthly dance party at the Rock N Roll Hotel! I’m feeling a little funky this week, so I may be throwing in some jams you haven’t heard in a while in addition to all the house, hip hop and 80s classics I normally spin. Ratt Moze will be opening up for the first hour, so get there early and have a (cheap!) drink with me before I go on!
