Introducing DJ Tay James: Make it Pop

January 12, 2011 / Posted in Interviews / Jimmy Jazz Stores / Music
Tags: Bun B / DJ Tay James / Jimmy Jazz / Justin Bieber

By Souleo You might not think that the official DJ for pop sensation, Justin Bieber would have the skills, knowledge and heart to tackle the catalogue of southern rap titan, Bun B. Well don't hold that fact against, DJ Tay James. This is one DJ who has paid his dues entertaining crowds all over the DMV (DC, MD and VA) and has over 75 mixtapes under his belt. DJ Tay James recently teamed up with Jimmy Jazz and Diamond Supply Co. to release the free mixtape, We Know Bun B: The Original OG.

Already the mixtape has received rave reviews Bun B's own stamp of approval with a tweet and a short text stating "good job." Bun B may be a man of few words but those words mean a lot about DJ Tay James' project.

 

We spoke with DJ Tay James to get the details on his inspiration, the surprising fact he learned about Bun B while working on the project and how he is connecting hip-hop and pop music lovers.

 

On the need to honor an underrated legend:

 

When Pimp C went to jail Bun B carried on the legacy until he got out. He started doing solo projects and being on other people's songs. So my thing is that's a legend who made himself popular because he was able to stand on his own two and stay relevant in music. When I had a chance to meet him I knew I had to do something so that listeners know that.

 

On learning about the other side of Bun B:

 

I knew he was teaching but not how serious or big it was. He co-teaches hip-hop college classes and they are trickling down to high school and middle school. That sounds crazy and no one would know about that but that's Bun B.

 

On his mission to bridge the worlds of hip-hop and pop:

 

I'm trying to combine both genres and make it hot in each other's worlds. I'll take a pop song and put a down south bass line behind it like Katy Perry's acapella of "California Girls," over a Gucci Mane song. I'll even take a Gucci Mane song and put a top 40 fist pumping beat behind it. People like stuff like that and I'm just trying to make it interesting.

Donnis: “I’m Not Going to Lady Gaga It”

October 21, 2010 / Posted in Interviews / Music / Style
Tags: Donnis / Jay-Z / Jimmy Jazz / Lady Gagga

By Souleo Not everyone wants to dress like Lady Gaga and that includes rising hip-hop artist, Donnis. His style is a far cry from Lady Gaga and one marked by comfort, splashes of bright colors and trademark glasses and hats. Donnis, a formerly active member of the United States Air Force is buzzing in the industry after several notable highlights including opening for the likes of T.I. and Erykah Badu, securing a spot on the coveted Freshman 2010 cover of XXL Magazine and receiving praise for his Fashionably Late EP. The EP features his versatile rhymes that are playful one minute and brutally honest and emotional the next. It's matched up against equally dexterous beats that range from club ready southern anthems to top 40 jams.

 

 

We picked Donnis' fashion brain and discovered the one outfit that turned girls off, a bad case of yellow pants fashion disaster, why he refuses to go the way of Lady Gaga and more.

 

On how bad fashion sense prevented him from getting girls:

 

When I was super young I used to go to the skating rink and I used to wear the same outfit there every time. I used to wear these baggy cross-colored shorts and I used to think it was the coolest s*** ever. I used to wonder why aren't girls talking to me? It was because I was wearing the same damn outfit every Friday. So they probably thought I had no clothes. So now I like to switch up the outfits.

 

On how he almost ruined his fashion game:

 

About a year and a half ago I went back to the colored pants. I wore some mustard yellow pants I copped from American Apparel and I shouldn't have did that. I'm back on my regular jean game now.

On why you'll never catch him rocking anything Lady Gaga might wear:

 

I like to be comfortable with everything that I wear. I like my style to be very classic and traditional. I might go throwback a little bit but nothing too crazy. I'm not going to Lady Gaga it.

On how Jay-Z inspired him to get a Hawaiian shirt:

 

I was definitely the hip-hop kid with the extra baggy pants. I remember wanting to be fashionable when Jay-Z released the "Big Pimpin'" video. I saw him on that boat and I was like "Yo! I gotta get a Hawaiian shirt. What the hell am I doing ? I'm not cool, Jay-Z is the coolest." So I went from that to finding my own personal style. Now I try to be a trendsetter with my accessories.

 

On shopping at jimmy Jazz:

 

When I first moved to New York, Jimmy Jazz was one of the first stores I went to. I had a girlfriend who lived on 104th St. & Amsterdam Avenue so I used to walk my ass right up to Harlem and get me some Jimmy Jazz stuff. I used to run in there and get my kicks because they always have good deals on the kicks. That was when I was a big sneaker head.
