Long overdue. Give this man his flowers. Did so much for not only West Coast Hip Hop, but Hip Hop in general. Alonzo Williams is a walking West Coast Hip Hop encyclopedia. So much knowledge and history. Gave a lot of artist their start. Respect.
Man, I can listen to these West Coast hip hop stories for HOURS. Always devour the content whenever the founding fathers, like Alonzo Williams, speak on it. SO much history, much of it untold. This is straight gold, and I NEED a second part.
Eve After Dark was our spot in the 80s as a LA DJ back then we had our crew which was known as the LA CRASH CRU. After my crew broke up I started Djing for the LA Dream Team.The Werckin Kru and Uncle Jamms army was hot. Dre had a hell of a mix at time call the mr. Postman mix. Uncle jam had Egyptian Lover and Bobby Bob Cat. Salute to Lonzo
Thank u Alonzo for the history i go way back with u and u cannot be denied for telling the truth because if u weren't it wouldn't be so easy to flow the way u flowed it thanks a million and I read ur book
I remember growing up listening to King Tech and Sway's early record "We Want To Rock You" back in the late 80's. If you haven't heard it, check it out. Badass jam. That was huge in the Bay Area back then. Shout out and RIP to the Late Great DJ Cameron Paul (KMEL)
Sway you should definitely interview Dwayne "Muffla" Simon (L.A. Posse). He produced L.L. Cool J and other artists. I interviewed "Alonzo" on my "Rappers Over Thirty Podcast" a few years ago. Just Google it. - Best of health, happiness, and success.
I'm glad I clicked on to hear the infancy of West Coast Hip-Hop. My jerry curls was dry I had no activators, just put a down payment on a house, my beeper was off😅
I have a question for everyone that know their Hip Hop History - is Doctor Rock that work with Tom Joyner the same Doctor Rock that DJ for the Force MCs that became The Force MD's?
They were first called the Fantastic L.D.s. Members Stevie D. Mercury, and DJ Doctor Rock were known as DJ Doctor Rock and the Force MCs. The Fantastic L.D.s. (Jessie, Stevie, Antoine "T.C.D." Lundy, Rodney "Khalil" Lundy, "Trisco" Pearson, Charles "Mercury" Nelson) and DJ Doctor Rock and the Force MCs combined together to form the Force M.D.s.
