(Hot 97 / N.Y.C.)
While most of the hip hop producers have to put a lot of effort in their beats to arouse the DJ's, big kap and his teacher Funkmaster Flex already know what the true headz want.
"I think DJ's are the best producers, especially when they're on the road and play in good clubs regularly. Look at Swizz Beats, Premier or Scratch. These cats are real DJ's."
Since the time when DJ's had to attach coins to their MKII's to keep the needle from skipping, a lot of things have happened in the community which can be traced back to the efforts of Funkmaster Flex showing the way.
Flex is doing it all, whether it's being the most famous discjockey on Hot97 New York, being chief executive officer of is own company Franchise Entertainment or being a booked up Party DJ - no one gets passed Flex.
Big Kap was introduced to the game by Flex and soon earned the respectable status of being the number two.
He says:" Flex is a master. No one is working as hard as him. Kid Capri and Clark Kent might have opened the doors to the big money, but Flex is the only one who actually reached the next level: He owns a management and marketing company not to forget his famous Street Team. Flex is doing big business!"
