DJ Premier "So Wassup?" ("Come Clean" Episode, Video)


DJ Premier presents his brand new web video series: 'So Wassup?', a salute to the floppy disk. Throughout this series, DJ Premier explores his most classic productions, and how the technology of the time influenced his signature sound. In the first episode, DJ Premier talks about how the track "Come Clean", from Jeru The Damaja's classic debut "Sun Rises In The East," came to be. "Come Clean" is an iconic beat in Premier's extensive catalog - especially before the internet when most people had zero clue how he made that unique sound!! So Wassup? is created by his talented manager, Ian Schwartzman; co-created and also directed by Andrew “POE” Mohrer. I'll be following this video series very closely, so check back for future episodes (or dig into the archives for more if you're seeing this post late). Salute the legend, DJ Premier... thee greatest producer of all-time...
