User talk:DJ BUSY B

Not too many DJs on the West Coast can claim originality in their DJing style. While the average DJ turns tables, DJ BUSY B TURNS HEADS. Self-proclaimed "BUZZ OF THE BAY", A Bay Area native born on July 2, 1981 in Daly City California, Brandon "Busy B" was first exposed to the world of music by his mother who had always played "Soul" records since he was an infant. At the young age of 5 he had witnessed a new culture phenomenon known as Hip-Hop. Like most kids, saturday morning cartoons played it's role in shaping his young creative mind during his childhood but cult movie classics such as "Wild Style", "Beat Street", and "Breakin" exposed him to an even more influential part in the molding process from boy to musician.

Relating to this culture was not an option for him, it became a part of him on it's own. He is not a predicate to the "ALL AMERICAN DREAM" such as growing up in a house with white picket fenses, a mother and father with a perfect marriage. He grew up in average household where money was always an issue, from paying rent, going to a public school with predominantly Black and Latin students, and hand-me downs. During his elementry school years he managed to figure out a way to make a little money to buy things on his own. After school he would recycle glass bottles and aluminum cans. This experience marked the beginning of his "Hustling" days.

Later in the years as a teen, he became more fascinated with all elements of this underground culture known as "Hip-Hop". From B-Boy to Graffiti Artist, he soon realized that it was more of the "MUSIC" that influenced him. While "Rappers" became the vital part of a music performance, seeing a performance by "DJ KID CAPRI" and the energy he created soon changed his perception of what entertaining was all about.

For years he pondered the idea of DJing. Not like most DJ stories you hear about, he didn't get his first piece of dj equipment given or bought for him by his mother or father. It was not until the year of 1996 at the young age of "14" where he finally got the chance to buy his own first set of turntables with his own hard-earned money that he saved from working full-time summer after summer in a wherehouse. A year later, at age "15" he got a taste of performing in front of an audience and was paid $300 for his first paying gig. Since then, he continues to separate himself from other djs through incorporating a foundation that has been forgotten from the early pioneer djs. Mixing, Cutting, and Scratching is the way he gets "busy" creating a buzz for himself, appearing on radio stations, television, and pumping up Hip-Hop night clubs all over the Bay Area and cities beyond. He is an example of how a "Vision" becomes "Reality".

He is "THE AMERICAN STREET DREAM": DJ Busy B.
