Building a crowd to be able to play whatever you want,
Dealing with promoters and undercutting,
His circle of DJ and other crews,
His short time as a rapper part of A&D,
Being a sober DJ,
Playing for Sway at SXSW,
About how he used to get in the crowd with his laptop,
What he would if he wasn't a DJ
Quote from the show:
"If you come to the club and you wanna hear a specific song but the crowd is not with you. You can't just go where you want to. You gotta build 'em up. They goin' on a ride with you. And when you get where you want to, you can whatever you want. You can turn it into a family reunion." - Donte
