So.. you think you can dj? Word? Well, I think I rap pretty good-like.
However, I am a terrible dj.. No one wants to see that. However, I'm sure YOU could be much nicer on the wicky-wickys! Do you enjoy a good rap tune, turntablism, have a dry sense of humor, love to travel and possess a general love for all fantastic music no matter what genre??? Well then, I'm looking for you.

On Sunday June 25th, in collaboration with Remix Hotel, Rane/Serato, Okayplayer and the fabulous people at Blacksmith (go, my label!) I will be holding the preliminary audtions for the fun, fun, sometimes too much damn fun job of being my dj. Oooooh, you wanna do this, don't you?!??!

Go to http://jean-grae.com to download the application form

I will pick 25-30 of y'all to come through, chat, answer some silly but very important questions and most importantly, show me your djing skiillllz. I promise it'll be great and I really appreciate anyone who even took the time to read this.. Thanks a lot... got any questions? Sure we can answer them. Time, location...all that goodness. Word up y'all...

Exciiiiting stuff!!

"YTINU" - C. Murphys face

On Sunday June 25th, in collaboration with Remix Hotel, Rane/Serato, Okayplayer and Blacksmith/ Warner, Jean Grae will hold the preliminary auditions for a new DJ.

Find the official instructions and application created by Jean on her Web site at http://jean-grae.com and download the form.

Based on the responses Jean will pick 25-30 potential DJs to meet her in person at Remix Hotel, interview and most importantly, show their skills as a DJ in a 3 minute set of their choosing using Serato.

Please be advised that should things work out, this will be a long-term position that will involve a significant amount of traveling. Check okayplayer.com, remixhotel.com and jean-grae.com for a link to the application and good luck!

RE Crazy Dj Bazarro:
Some of you may know that for the last few years Jean's tour DJ has been the good man Crazy Dj Bazarro. Bazarro is still part of the Jean Grae camp doing the radio show, promoting, lending support in a variety of departments, and actively working on his and her career. A decision was made to find more of a show stopper of a DJ and for a short period on the Kool tour, X ECUTIONERS member and Pharaohe Monch's DJ Boogie Blind was rocking with Jean. These are big shoes to fill.

Up next in that spot, could it be you?

Do you have to look hip-hop?
Can you smoke ciggretes on the tour bus?
Will you get groupies with blonde hair?
Will the winner get 401K and a dental plan?

thanks for posting. i enjoy your posts. i copped your album "this week" recently. i'm still evaluating. but thank god it wasn't a short album. your little comment was a big relief. cuz i was in the Best Buy wrestling with myself over that short tracklist. i had faith tho, but like i say...i'm still evaluating the album.

peace, and best wishes to you. sounds like you relentlessly push your lyrical and expressive limits.

I want to be like Lord Sear

Hey Jean....I wouldn't mind being your dj and rockin with you; i know i would have fun putting a show together for you. But unfortunately, you know I'm committed to my other group (the Visionaries)...LOL.

I would've done it for free just to see Alex (2Mex) get all excited since he's like your number one fan. Anyways, good luck with everything and congrats on the new deal w/Talib & Corey...you deserve it! Tell Bazarro & Boogie Blind i said "what up". See you around somewhere on the road....

Also.. not forgotten.. In addition to having to fill Bazarro AND Boogie Blinds shoes..

You gotta be able to top Mr. Len..
Now, unless you know how to do impromptu spoken word poems such as "Im the Male DJ"

well.. it's gonna be a doozy.

And you guys are all great haha.. yes leave all your current groups and roll with me.
How much does it pay?
A coke and a smile.
Maybe a small classic bottle of coke.
And a grin. Or a smirk.
Ok, ok, an RC cola and a sneer?

Seriously though I'm not gonna talk about that here.. but it is a valid question.

ummm ask other stuff if you'd like and i will try my best to answer.

I got you for real but I can't be in NYC on Sunday cause I'm "...down south getting country love and I ain't even country thug". (Mase) If you need a round two or don't like any of the turnout this weekend, give folks more of an advance so I can schedule accordingly and fly up to NYC in order to get a new j o.

<<<<<<< R.I.P. King Dilla

I'm on my Detroit Sheeeeet...

Even your post is so Jean Grae-ish..
I am dying for the "Jeanius"!

p.s: You should really get together with Pete Rock and/or Q-Tip to put up an album. And joint project with Mos Def will be a killer for sure!

Keep it right.

i'm not a dj, but i really like jean, she's funny. i think she would be fun to drink with.

“So back we go to these questions — friendship, character… ethics.”

I am.
. A hoot to drink with..
Was the owl who used to do those commercials called "Hootie the Owl?"
He was sucky. I hated him.

No one likes a preachy owl.
A preachy crow is worse. All, "Caaaw, caawww you guys should do this.."

Fuck off preachy crow.

Oh boy. That was the worst reply ever.

btw, I-DEE is the best DJ in this thread. Hope he comes.
