Fresh from rocking the crowd at the Jazzy Jeff x Droppin’ Science at Jazz Cafe, Skillz (p.k.a. Mad Skillz) drops his annual end of the year rap up for 2009. After last year’s effort was let down by lame production, this one’s a contender for best so far, touching on everything from the Kanye / Taylor Swift incident to various beefs from the likes of 50 Cent vs. Rick Ross & Eminem vs Mariah Carey, to the uprise of twitter & the sad demise of Mr Magic, Roc Raida, Baatin & DJ AM, all over a dope soulful beat. Heat!!

Grand Master Roc Raida: 1972 – 2009

Filmed on wednesday 27th October 2009 – Hosted by Tha En4cers (UK) in association with Vibe Bar

A very well shot & edited video montage of the roc raida tribute night – I felt honoured to be a part of it and to have shared the stage with so many UK legends..

R.I.P. Raida – My only meeting with the man was brief, at a trade show where he cut it up on the decks with my brother & fellow droppin’ science resident Dj Daredevil, for such a legendary figure it was great to discover what a humble & straight up nice guy he is – & he blessed me with a ridiculously sick mixtape drop too! I’m pretty sure the x-men video ‘in x-ercise’ was the first scratching video me & my brother laid our hands on – a massive inspiration. Life is way too fragile, rest in peace grandmaster.

Bonus footage! Roc Raida & Droppin’ Science’s own Daredevil Q & A scratching:
