Man some of yall quoting my tweet talkin shit must’ve never been a cool ex. Exes can be homies too, & somebody can f*ck w ur vibe w/o wanting u (back) romantically. But anyways NAW I DIDNT ACTUALLY GO- sis would’ve caught a vibe bc I would’ve dressed cute for a date regardless 😂
You are out of your fucking mind if you are tryna book a DJ for free, idgaf about helping your brand or exposure. We’ve been unemployed for a year, fuck off 🖕🏼
DJs don’t qualify for unemployment, most of us haven’t received a penny all pandemic. I haven’t seen anyone complain bout it on social media though. Everybody just got their asses to work & grinded. If you’ve supported a DJ in the last 7 months, thank you thank you thank you.
If ur a DJ & u pull up to my party to peep/ support/ hang/ wtv the agenda is, I will make sure u & ur friends r good all night. I’m always appreciative of support from fellow DJs, even if we ain’t friends. Hospitality in the community is rare these days. Take care of ppl who fwu!
It’s cool if you’re a DJ and you don’t think streaming is for you so you’re “good on it”... but talking shit about DJs streaming to make yourself feel better is hater level 100. We’re all just tryna make a way, being a bitter mf is lame all the time but even lamer in 2021 🤷🏻♀️
My homie pulled up to the blocc party (uninvited and unannounced) w a flame thrower and started dancing in the middle of the street. Folks are really losing theirs minds 😂
Just tapped through a few stories and mfs really having full on parties? No masks, no gloves, no social distancing practiced whatsoever. You’re all fucking idiots. I hate all of you.
Ayo DJ fellas, if u gon be the type to bring ur girl w u to every gig, make sure she knows how to have fun & co-exist in the environment. If she got a stank attitude, she’s making u look bad 🤷🏻♀️
I’ve never been to Coachella bc I made a deal w myself that I’d only ever go if I get booked to DJ... this year was gonna be that year. I hope the opportunity revisits me next next year 🥺🤞🏼
❗️$1,500 cash reward if anybody brings my backpack with its belongings back to me. Please, please, please 🤞🏼(contains MacBook Pro, Pioneer headphones, 2 hard drives, vinyls, needles)❗️
Somebody in my stream said “is it just irony that it’s so many poppin DJs that are Filipino” and lemme tell you, nothin bout that is just irony. Not one to brag but Filipinos are fucking good at everything and we do it w saaaaauce 🪄
Somebody came up to me and handed me cash THEN asked if I could “kindly play Bad Bunny if it makes sense w my set.” And that’s how you do it if you gon do it ✔️
I DJ’d in a club in the Philippines that had a circular 360 DJ booth in the middle of the dancefloor and it’s such a vibe, surprised no clubs out here have done anything like this yet. Way cooler than a stage or booth
I’m so tired. Emotionally drained the fuck out. I need a big change in life. I don’t know what yet, but I need it soon and I pray God is working on it...
Somebody plz write a DJ ETIQUETTE FOR DUMMIES so the new cats got something to read & learn. They cant keep getting away w shit. How u up there like ur hot shit but dont know gear, etiquette, etc. I want better for the new DJs so bad, I want them to care more so they know more :(
Have you guys ever cried in your dream, woke up, and was actually drenched in tears? How the fuck does that shit happen 😳 now I can’t shake this shit off
I didn’t get his name but if ur the guy who was ahead of me in line at subway & paid for my order & thanked me for streaming during the pandemic bc the late night streams got u thru graveyard shifts at the hospital, that felt like a big hug tysm 4 making my day ❤️🔥🥹
Was pulled aside by 1 of my dj idols to let me know that I played his favorite set all day & another dj I always looked up to said I’m a noob that gets by on looks & popularity- all on the same day. Guess that’s just how the dj world turns. U get inspired & put down all at once
A letter my bratty ass wrote my grandpa when I was little… all for a
@steveaustinBSR
t shirt 😂 brought it w me to show him I still have it & he was so shocked. It’s my favorite, most valuable t shirt of all time!
Plz don’t act like my friend in public if u don’t actually like me. Youre too old to play pretend. Ignore me, don’t smile at me, don’t come up to hug me. I prefer that over “being cordial.”
Finally made it outta the deepest, darkest, ugliest rut. The kinda shit that changes u permanently. It always feels like ur gonna be in that space forever while ur in it. Prayed & worked hard to get my mental where it is rn- still a daily fight but man, I’m so proud of myself 😢
Being a hating ass DJ is one thing. But being old AND a hater for no reason other than being bitter towards DJs in younger generations is sad. You don’t affect me, I just feel sorry u feel affected grandpa 👴🏻
Made dinner plans w my dad & been waiting here at the restaurant for the last 30 mins. I’m like DAD WHERE R U & he sends me this… NO BIG DEAL 😭
@TheRock
❤️
Sold one of his guitars to buy me a pair of turntables & a mixer, taught me how to DJ, and drove me to all my gigs and would wait & nap in the parking lot till I was done- he did this for a couple years till I turned 21 ❤️
Can always tell when an open format DJ don’t really listen to house music by the way they start quick mixing house records. This guy just flew thru 4 joints in under 2 mins 🥴 for the love of god let it breath
What’s up w the obsession people who don’t drink have w making people who do feel like shitty humans? You’re sober? Good for you. You enjoy drinking? Good for you. You’re not a better person bc you do or don’t 🤦🏻♀️
One thing I’ve always been proud of 4 as long as I’ve been a DJ is that I’m consistent w my shit- work ethic, identity, branding, & creativity. I don’t follow trends even if it “aged” me or made me feel left behind. I’ll always choose what’s true to me. My goal is to LAST.
Still blows my mind that follower count & overall social media presence is high in the criteria when being considered for gigs/projects. By no means am I an “influencer,” Im just a DJ who learned how 2 adapt 2 the game so I can keep up w the influencers who were taking our jobs😂
Just realized I turned down a gig last month bc I looked at my calendar and saw a dot on the date so thought I was booked. I just opened the date up and the dot is for Yom Kippur 😑
I’m very sensitive about friendship bc if I really fwu, I would never cross u. I’ve never faked the funk w anybody & I don’t have enemies. Finding out somebody u really thought was a friend is actually grimey & shady behind ur back really fucking affects me 😓
Been checked out last couple days but just now getting back to some messages and wow 😢 in literal tears seeing the amount of support from the DJ community offering help to rebuild my library back from the ground up. What an incredible blessing, I’m at a loss for words..
Male DJs who think female DJs have it “easy” to get bookings have never experienced not getting booked bc u wouldn’t entertain the booker/ talent buyer’s flirtatious advances. Talk to me if a buyer has ever canceled ur gig bc u didn’t wanna go on a date w him 😂
Just have to share this w yall. Last yr in April they gave my Lolo 2 months to live. Almost a yr later he’s still w us, living life w zero reservations. He tells everyone who asks how he’s doing that he feels “full of life” despite having cancer. Look at him 🥹
Love on yours.
I’ll always have the utmost respect 4 the OGs! Learned from the OGs & rock 4 the OGs.. but I dont fuck w a “back in my day” ass DJ who thinks every generation of DJs after his doesnt deserve respect & value. Talk ur shit somewhere else. Twitter didnt even exist “back in ur day”🤡
By now I personally know at least 17 people with Covid (some still recovering, some have recovered, a few have passed). I’m infuriated with the ignorant mfs I see on this app everyday acting like this shit doesn’t exist. Congrats fuckhead, you’re the reason people are dying.
POV: 8 DJs on the lineup & I’m the only one on Serato- scrambling to figure out if I had the driver installed, if the firmware is updated, if my laptop is compatible… shit made me feel so ghetto 😭 2023 ima stop bullshitting & switch over to sticks (at least for certain gigs)
Imagine the amount of opportunities, important conversations, & chances u miss from OVERTHINKING. Say what u think, do what u feel, act how u want. Stop robbing urself!
I’ve never asked DJ homies for help / support but I personally sent out a few “what’s your email so I can send you our new remix” texts yesterday and didn’t get replies from most. Lol y’all will never hear from me again and I hope to never hear from y’all 🤡
My bank decided getting drinks at 3pm in LA was suspicious activity and humbled my ass when the hottest bartender I’ve ever met handed me back my card and said “darling it’s declined.” Shit was so embarrassing I tipped him $100 just to fix my ego 😭
Outgrowing people, places, things, and emotions that no longer serve/ never served a purpose in the quality of your life is the most liberating stage of “growth.”
Tested negative and finally out of this hell hole. Love to everybody who checked in on me and kept my spirits up every day in the last couple weeks. You guys have no idea how much that helped ❤️🙏🏼
Dudes will call you “bro” in the middle of an argument to try & get you mad but it doesn’t bother you. You call em “dude” and they never talk to you ever again. Man, I should’ve just called you sis.
Don’t get too comfortable. If it’s not evolving, move on— whether it’s from people, a place, a relationship, a friendship, a job, a habit...
Dont wait till it’s too late.
Seems like a good time to confess something I’ve been meaning to get off my chest. I’ve never seen a Star Wars movie. Never wanted to either. Sorry if this offends anybody 😶
Do u know how ignorant & small minded u have to be to shame somebody for wearing a mask? If u don’t like masks & don’t wanna wear em, cool, but leave people who do alone. Why the fuck does it bother u that SOMEONE ELSE is wearing a mask? How is that affecting u? R u a moron?
I really don’t understand DJs who call their gigs / shows a “performance” 😂 “come to my performance” lmao should I expect cartwheels in between transitions?
Shoutout to my survival skills. Glad to know the first thing I’d do during an earthquake is hug myself and stand under a flower pot 😑 p.s. 2020 go fuck yourself!
Not my sister telling me she’s at a private party and there’s “some rapper everyone is taking pics of” I’m like “who is it,” she said “idk” then sends me this… BRO R U FUCKING KIDDING ME
I guarantee that nobody from outta state / country has ever tried in n out for the first time & said “wow, they were right this is incredible.” In n out is good but it’s not best burger ever good. Cali mfs need to relax 🙂
Getting hassled at the door bc the door people don’t believe you’re the DJ really makes me wanna fight these power trippin mfs. Y’all want me to walk in w turntables and headphones over my head so I look like one?!!!
DJ’d a party recently where I was the only DJ all night who didn’t use stems their entire set and idk but I felt like that was equivalent to me being that DJ that’s still on scratch live 😭
