As
one of the finest DJs alive, Rob Swift has repped
turntablism far and wide. He's won DJ contests, starred
in the all-DJ supergroup X-ecutioners and even
the odd
GAP
commercial, all while releasing a string of solid solo
efforts and collaborating with diverse luminaries like
Bob James, Herbie Hancock and the always
irrepressible Mike Patton.
These days, he's returned to his roots with Ill
Insanity, a collective that also includes X-ecutioner
grads Total Eclipse and Precision. Throw
in an ongoing world tour and Ill Insanity's recently
released debut Ground Xero, and you've got one
hard-working turntablist with his heart set on
revitalizing his art for the digital age.
Listening Post caught up with Swift about his new
supergroup, Barack Obama, bling rap and why
Serato Scratch Live is a gift from the gods.
Listening Post: You've made it clear this
is not X2. Is it good to get some of the drama behind
you and get back to turntablism?
Rob Swift: I feel Ill Insanity has willingly taken on
the responsibility of re-exposing our art form,
turntablism, to a new generation. During the mid 90's or
"Golden Years," the X-ecutioners were a part of a DJ
movement that was alive and vibrant. But now, the
consensus is that the movement is dead. Ill Insanity's
main purpose is to breathe life back into the art.
Being self sufficient, not relying on a major label to
introduce what we do to the masses, and taking back
control of our artistry has led to a more healthy, fun
situation for us. The chemistry between Precision, Total
Eclipse and myself is the strongest I've felt within a
group since my days as an X-man. We practice
almost everyday, we're hungry and we're on the same
page. Within a year of forming Ill Insanity we completed
and released our first album, toured Europe and the
United States,
we even made appearances on ESPN and
BET.
I think it's safe to say our approach to things is
working.
Listening Post: How has turntablism tech changed since
X, and have those changes made it easier for budding DJs
to get into the game? What have been some of the most
interesting products or developments you've seen lately?
RS: With the advances in DJ-oriented
technology like Rane's Serato Scratch Live and their
TTM-57 mixer, our Guitar Center
Sessions tour allowed us to interact with the audiences
that came to see us on a more personal level. There was
a Q&A session at each location and we also took part in
workshops that allowed us to explain the technical side
of what we do. We talked about everything, from how we
incorporate Serato Scratch Live in our stage show to
breaking down the art form of turntablism itself. As the
X-ecutioners, we relied on vinyl for our performances.
But people don't realize the lengths we went through to
put together a show on vinyl. From composing show
records and having pressing plants manufacture 100 to
200 pieces of vinyl so that we had our material from our
albums narrowed down to three to four pieces of show
vinyl, to traveling with a sound man that would help us
sound check and monitor the live show to minimize the
feedback issues we would almost always experience.
I can't speak for other DJs but I can honestly say, with
all the confidence in the world, that technology like
Serato Scratch Live and the Rane TTM 57 Mixer have made
it possible for us to do what we do in a more effective
way. Don't get me wrong, if you suck on regular vinyl,
you're gonna suck on Serato. The technology hasn't
necessarily made it easier from a technical standpoint.
It's just opened the doors for much better sound quality
and more creativity. I try and focus on
being able to adapt and master what's in front of me.
I've experimented with it all, turntables, CDJs, foot
pedals, Serato and I always shelve what doesn't fit my
needs and embrace what does.
Listening Post: How has the response to
Ill
been on the road? What other acts in the turntablism
game are repping the movement well?
RS: The response to Ill Insanity world
wide has been very positive. The fans truly appreciate
our efforts in rejuvenating the Tablist scene. Other
noteworthy acts we feel exist in the movement are C2C
and Birdy Nam Nam from
Europe.
Honorable mention to Triple Threat, D Styles,
Q-bert, Roc Raida, Ricci Rucker,
Toadstyle and Excess.
Listening Post: Bling rap is on the way
out, and a conscientious hip-hop seems to be on the
verge of a return. What will you miss the least out of
these last eight years?
RS: What I will miss the least is the type
of commercial rap that fails to challenge the listeners.
It baffles me how we're in the middle of a recession,
people are losing their homes to foreclosure, fathers
and mothers are being laid off and all rappers want to
talk about is their million dollar houses and the bling
on their wrists and necks.
Listening Post: How about the future? Are
you pulling for Obama?
RS: I'm definitely ready for a change and
I think a candidate like Obama is the perfect person to
bring about that change. The man is amazing and I think
having him in office will spark a positive, activist
mentality amongst us all...

NEVER
SO DEEP RECORDS
South
Carolina
April 11, 2008 -Independent Hip Hop companies have
survived predictions of their impending death more times
than any other force in popular music. With five albums
released in 2007 and two additional album releases in
the summer of 2008, Never So Deep Records continues to
defy this conjecture. On the schedule for summer 08' are
two eclectic albums "Dead Sea Scrolls"(release date
July1, 2008) by Rap veteran Insane Poetry and "The
Gospels Of Reverend Wallace"( release date TBA) by emcee
Jim Snooka (Both albums will be exclusively produced by
Multi Platinum producer DJ Bless). Lead off singles from
both of these albums have already hit the airways and
the worldwide net. Insane Poetry's "Ghetto Metal" debut
singles "There Will Be Blood" B/W "Jihad" and Jim
Snooka's "Hostel" are causing havoc on the underground
music scene. With these two summer releases, Never So
Deep Records continues to beat the odds. Keep your ears
to the streets! These albums are sure to be heat
seekers.
About Insane Poetry:
Before Gravediggaz, before Insane Clown Posse, their was
Insane Poetry. Though the underground got its first
taste of the blood-splattered lyrics of rapper Cyco and
his posse via their 1992 album Grim Reality and the lead
off single "How Ya Gonna Reason With A Psycho," Insane
Poetry actually hit wax the previous year on Rodney
O-Joe Cooley's single "Get Ready To Roll". In 1990, they
introduced themselves to the LA gangsta music scene with
an appearance at the legendary "Coolin In Compton
Festival" alongside N.W.A., Compton's Most Wanted, and
Big Daddy Kane. So Insane Poetry's street cred is rock
solid...yet this ain't no irrelevant, old school outfit
either. Like Kool G Rap and Kool Keith, Insane Poetry
has managed to stay one step ahead of the underground
rap scene and relevant as hell. Following up on the
success of the 2007 album, 'Fallen From Grace', Insane
Poetry is back with the "Ghetto Metal" production of DJ
Bless. Look for the album "Dead
Sea
Scrolls"
About Jim Snooka:
Jim Snooka was first introduced as a feature on the
highly acclaimed album "Darko Effect" (Boondocks
Saints-NSD-2005). Shortly after, he showcased his skills
on the DJ Bless production album "A Perfect Murder". The
single from that album "Blowin Up The Spot" caused an
instant buzz and was placed in rotation by numerous
commercial, college, satellite and internet radio
stations. "Blowin Up The Spot" was the top 5 added song
of the week and broke into the top ten single slot on
RapAttackLives.com (Issue# 277-April
30, 2007). Snooka's first video from that single moved
through the internet like an uncontrollable virus. Jim
Snooka showed he could be humorous and thought provoking
at the same time. The "Blowin Up The Spot" video became
an underground favorite. With the release of his new
single "Hostel" and upcoming debut album "The Gospels Of
Reverend Wallace" (NSD-08'), Jim Snooka will have an
opportunity to show his all-star status.
About DJ Bless:
DJ Bless secured his first Record label deal with MCA
/Universal in 2002 at the age of 18 years old. Since
entering the music industry, DJ Bless has showcased his
production skills with some of the music industries best
producers such as; Kanye West, Scott Storch, Sean Combs,
Swizz Beats, Sha Money, Rick Rubin, Havoc, R. Kelly and
many more. He has also produced songs on LiL Kim's Chart
busting Album Labella Mafia (Atlantic Records 2003). In
2004/2005 DJ Bless signature production was heard around
the world on several high profile remixes including,
Mystikal's "Pu**y Pop" (Jive Records), Dirt Bag
Featuring Fiend "I'll Leave You Dead" (Jive Records) and
releases from both Keith Murray and the Outlaws. In
2005/2006 DJ Bless produced and mixed several songs on a
Wendy Goldstein Project "That One Way" (Czarnok, Capital
Records) and also placed music on EA Sports Fight Night
2005. DJ Bless is presently working on several major
industry production projects including the musical score
for the docudrama "Hoop Realities" (Key Stone
Films/And1) a follow up to the award winning documentary
"Hoop Dreams". DJ Bless has also been commissioned to
direct and score his first full feature film ("Insane")
to be released in the winter of 2008/2009.

TAG

The new label will be led by Hip-Hop mogul Jermaine

York-based venture. As president, Dupri will set the
creative vision for the label and play an integral part
in identifying and developing its musical talent.
This
is a milestone for the music industry as TAG Record’s
artists will be supported with a multi-million dollar
marketing effort that is unprecedented for any new
artist, including television, print, radio, digital and
event marketing.

with a chance of a lifetime. New artists will receive
ten times the typical marketing support – a first in the
industry. I’m hand selecting and molding these artists
to make history in Hip-Hop.”
The
launch of TAG Records is part of the TAG brand's
initiative to cultivate relationships with the urban
community through the development of programs that
provide opportunities for aspiring Hip-Hop talent.
“We’re very excited about our partnership with IDJ and

power of brand marketing.”
TAG

May. The artist will be given a unique opportunity to
merge their music with personal brand marketing.

showcase TAG Record’s artist and Jermaine Dupri across

anyone filling in for me but I will be catching up with

Prove 1" Bowers (KSDT-San Diego): "We
got onto Itunes Radio under the college radio tab
which effectively doubled listenership for last week AND
I'm getting upwards of 1k unique sessions on the Web
site for checking out past shows. Good news for the
joints if you ask me. SO much good stuff right now.
Don't forget the show is on Saturday nights from 6-7pm!
You can catch old shows at

Nesto
(WODU-VA):
"What's good everyone?
So the Pope is in the US and kicking it in DC. Good to
see the Pope blessing the US with his presence. Maybe,
just maybe people will start acting normal again and
running around beating on babies.
Anyone get an advance of the Roots album yet? If
so spread the love, I'm really interested in hearing the
album.
Oh yeah for the sports heads out there. Anyone want to
make a prediction for the NBA Championships? I'm
going to say it's going to be between the Boston
Celtics and the LA Lakers. Boston will take
it in 6 games. That's my opinion, I welcome yours...
Oh yes, a moment of silence goes out to the Virginia
Tech students. Let's hope this does not happen ever
again to anyone"...

Leahy (WHUS-CT): "So much heat on the
charts this week-thanks to everyone sending me great new
joints. Just in time too-besides my radio show I'm
playing 3 club nights this week, so it's good there's
heat to spread around. Playing out-of-state for the
first time tonight-wish me luck in Providence, yo"...
Kazzeo
(KHDC-CA):
"Even though the mere thought of watching reality tv
disgusts me, I decided to give Ms. Rap Sumpreme a
chance. What a mistake that was. Good lord. Bunch of
loud, ignorant, out of shape, no skill having morons
trying to be famous. One chick on there was as big as a
house. A couple looked like trans-sexual's. Plus, that
one hit wonder Khia (My Neck My Back) is on
there. If they're trying to find the next female rap
star, why is someone who already had a record contract
on there? It makes no sense. The only reason to watch,
if there is one, is that there is one girl on there who
is really good looking but she admitted to being a
heroin addict. So that's not good at all.
Can't wait to hear the Pete Rock album. The new
joint with Chip Fu is very hot.
Am I twisted for wanted to see the Marilyn Monroe
sex tape? Hmmm.
Who do you think is more dangerous, Foxy Brown
with a blackberry or Britney Spears driving?"...
DJ
EarthQuake (Live365.com): "Gotta love the
weather up in Seattle!!! Snow two weeks ago and then 79
on Saturday then talking about 30’s/40’s for this
weekend. What…..? Spring or Winter? I am confused"...
Edgie
Kokoski
(WUNH-NH):
"It's no secret that I'm a huge Red Sox fan, but
I did find the attempt to bury a David Ortiz
jersey in the new Yankee Stadium a little ironic as the
only person it seemed to curse was David Ortiz. Up until
last night's game in
Cleveland,
Ortiz had the worst batting average in baseball.
Although Ortiz' performance on the field has been
embarassing, it isn't even close to the embarassment
that Yankees owner Hank Steinbrenner
should be feeling. When asked about the construction
worker who buried the BoSox jersey, he commented "I hope
that his co-workers beat the shit out of him". Nice. And
they get mad when we call them the Evil Empire.
Seeing Hillary Clinton nurse that shot of Whiskey
on TV gave me a great idea on how to pick the
Democratic Candidate for President. I think
that Hillary and Barack should go head to head in
a shot drinking contest, just like
Indiana Jones'
main
squeeze Marion Ravenwood did against some goon in
"Raiders of the Lost Ark".
I'm on my way to
Atlanta
and I may just try and swing by Jermaine Dupri's
new label,
TAG.
No, it's not a clever acronym. It's actually a label
that Jermaine is running for TAG body spray company. So
who will be the lucky first artist to flaunt their
street cred by repping a shitty junior high cologne? I
think I'd rather be signed to Death Row than TAG.
Being an artist on TAG would be kind of like driving a
NASCAR sponsored by Playtex"...
