Enough with the rapper posse cuts. Let the DJs have the spotlight for a few minutes of your time. Jayceeoh sent over this 12-man DJ posse cut that’s worth its weight in gold.

“Last month I was in Vancouver and was going through some new joints and came across the “Go Off” track… The beat to me was asking for cuts on it… I had been kickin it with my homies Hedspin and Marvel and thought, ‘Yo we should do a quick cut track over this beat.’ So I chopped up the beat and sequenced it to 8-bars / hook and so forth… After we started messing with it we thought it would be dope to get a couple other people on this… So I reached out to a few people and so did my canadian comrades… Within two days I had a Dream Team of DJs on board… At that point I figured I might as well make it an even 12 DJs. Was a good number for a DJ track… Then finally on my last stop of the Canada tour I did a show with Scratch (from the Roots) in Saskatoon. I told him about the track and he was down to lay his beatbox/cuts on the intro … Icing on the cake… This track is a throwback to the good ol days when cuts were encouraged and praised. The Roster of DJs is as official as it gets…(R.I.P. Roc Raida)”
