situation I had to learn how to blend Hip Hop to Hip Hop and make it more interesting than the next guy. Because anybody can do that. The show was set up into challenges. One challenge you had to run up a flight of stairs with a record case. Another challenge you would go toe to toe in a dj battle. If you were the weakest link you went home. I just tried not to be the weakest link. How did you feel after winning Master of the Mix? It felt great. I consider it another accomplishment. It enables me to attend season 3. The next year it will be on VH1. So many great things came out of it. Publicity, great money and the ability to do what I love to do in a big way. What’s next for DJ P? I’ve got a new DVD coming out in about two weeks or so. It’s a kids mix. I took Jungle Book, Lady and the Tramp, Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory, Wizard of Oz, Back to the Future and Alice and Wonderland, blending Hip Hop and Rock beats. It’s a video. It looks like this kid sneaks into my studio after I just left, and starts scratching, mixing and cutting these records while recording to a Real to Real. In reality of course I made the mix but I’m no where to be seen. It’s called “Beats in Toyland”. Doing Master of the Mix season 3 and still doing shows. I have some events coming up with Mr. Freeze from the Rock Steady Crew. Freeze will talk about hip hop and I’ll follow with a DJ set. I think right now that’s were it needs to go. These kids right now aren’t really
