No live play, but every producer has that moment where they are playing an old track, and realzied their true potential. Self motivating when you know you have what it takes.
Local friends who are into it more than me. check out JFreshmuzik.com! I like Dj Phresh out of the bay area. My boy 2Smoove Da Kidd is a beast on the beats too. Major names would include E-40 and his wisdom & 50 Cent and his business mind.
