Last week my crew the Villains and I got the opportunity to open for the GZA (Wu-Tang) in Ohakune and Welli alongside local DJ’s D-Rail, Affiliate and a bunch of other dope local acts.

Had an awesome time on the road and it was cool to be able to kick it with GZA and DJ Mathematics and shoot a video clip in Welli for JB’s new song “WAR”. Anyways, check out this little behind the scenes video made by Hitz of Funk Village/Villains from the GZA Tour show in Ohakune and JB’s video shoot!

 

 

Ahhh whhhaaatt!!

The quality of the battlers was the highest i’ve seen in years, this DVD will be worth copping once its released! Congrats to Vajra and everyone else that competed and lastly big ups to Christie and her team for keeping the art form going and running what looked like a quality battle! Respect

 

DJ Vajra - DMC 2011 US Champion

 

Below is a great review by Billy Jam of how the night went…

“How long you been practicing?” host Lord Finesse quizzed DJ Immortal at last night’s 2011 DMC US Finals DJ battle before the talented turntablist launched into a six minute routine that could determine the path of his future as a DJ. “My whole life,” said the Florida DJ born Jamie Keogh, qualifying that ever since he started DJing at age 15 he has dedicated every spare moment to honing his craft as a DJ/turntablist in preparation for an opportunity like last night’s big battle…

As you all know the homie DJ Vajra just took out the DMC US Finals in the weekend and will be travelling to London in October to represent the US in the DMC World Finals!

The footage of his routine probably won’t pop up online until after the World Finals or unless he uploads it himself as I know the organisers are very strict on making sure there is no filming at the event.

So click on the video below to witness the fitness and see what the homie will most likely be bringing to the World Finals stage. Shit is mad dope and will be good to see that “hiphop” flavor back in the scene!!

DJ Vajra just won the DMC US Final. About time, because he has never made the final and has been robbed HEAPS!

Hopefully I can get some video soon!
