📀🎚️🎛️🎚️📀
Love, Purpose n Peace MCD

This mfr!! Made this shit up/swagger and everything!! Everyone followed!! Raida!! ;)

I remember seeing Roc at an Executioners show with Common. Some cat in the audience brought his records and challenged him to a battle right there. He took the kid up on his offer and proceeded to smoke him although the kid was good. It was all love at the end but he gave dude a chance to shine. Much respect to a legend. RIP

The vinyl skillz are, to me, what separates the New DJs from the Old Skool. Cats juggling wax have, in my humble opinion, an edge up on those mix masters whose crates are 1s and Os. But please know my comment is only a personal observation and no way a slight on the AMAZING digital DJ we thankfully have making their own art

One love ❤

Sounds like a broken tape player..:/

Respect from Greece.

I witnessed the executioners live back in the day. Raida was the man, complete showman. I've always admired how much passion he put into his sets. I can always see the heart an culture of original New York city hip hop deajaying in his style. You can tell he was influenced and inspired by the original true djs of the time. He had great vibes when I dapped him up, a true legend. So sad he didn't have more time to enjoy his success.

Best beat juggler

Legend

The time when DJs where actually talented

My favorite needles where used in this set. Pickering NP/AC (PD07-C). My go to needles when I didn’t have my Stanton 500-AL needles.

One of the greatest DJs to have ever lived 💯💯💯🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥💪💪💪💪

The best of the best dj

Also I may be a day late and a dollar short but if you were mixing some Greta Van Fleet and a little Jurassic 5 people will ascend to new levels they have never been before. I really do miss you brother I’m so glad to see that you are doing amazing.

Ray has always been amazing I would love to see him do some atmosphere and Jurassic 5. Crank the BPM so you can flow whenever you are skateboarding or at the gym. Miss you darling there are no words to describe how much we all miss Andy especially me he was a good friend. You are a good man.

all.dj.iii.😘

yo RIP Roc.

What’s the track he plays before chief rocker ?

Hands down the best and fastest Good times back spin ever

Roc!... SERIOUS PROBLEM... huhhhhhhh... youth... I miss it... all is vanity... nothing lasts... except The Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ and His servants...

John 3:16 For God so loved the world that, He gave His only begotten Son that, whosoever believeth in Him should not perish but, have everlasting life.

The above scripture is FACT... May God the Father, Son and Holy Spirit direct and lead your path to, His kingdom and eternal salvation.

Jesus Christ Lord
MARANATHA (Lord come quickly is a rough translation)

Hardest dj eva, RIHeaven

So glad I am 47 years old and got to see real hip hop. This brings a tear to my eye no shit. What a shame these youngsters have grown up with the dogshit that is out there now.

Wish i got to see him live. R.i.p.

He seems like he would be an asshole in real life; but he’s NOT. I had the privilege of hanging out with him a couple of times many years ago and he’s mad nice and extremely soft spoken.

R.I.P. Grandmaster Roc Raida.

Shoot the photographer!!

Anyone who was lucky enough to meet Raida can attest to how humble and down to earth he was. I had the pleasure of chilling and blazing with him many times after shows. Such a cool cat, it killed me he died one of the largest influences for me as a youngin.

Wow i was there!

GRANDMASTER ROC RAIDA!
