Beskrivelse

The Heavy Hitters step into the podcast world for the first time — and they’re not easing in. In Episode 1, DJ Enuff, DJ Camilo, DJ Kast One, and L. Boogs break down the origin of one of the most influential DJ collectives in the world. From Bronx parties and Hot 97 to global stages in Japan, Thailand, and beyond, this is the story of how a crew became a movement. They talk about the early days, the grind it took to get in, the evolution of DJ culture, and what it really means to be a Heavy Hitter — beyond music. From mentorship and business to brotherhood and global reach, this episode sets the foundation for everything to come. If you’ve ever wondered how DJs build empires, how crews stay relevant for decades, or what it takes to stand out in a crowded game… this is where it starts. Welcome to the Heavy Hitter DJs Podcast.

episode 09 DJ Wallah: The Sixth Borough cover

09 DJ Wallah: The Sixth Borough

DJ Wallah pulls up to the Heavy Hitter DJs podcast. The Newark native built his own lane before anyone handed him one, throwing his own parties as a teenager when the top DJs had every booking locked up. He breaks down how Jersey club broke out of Brick City and went on to shape some of the biggest records in the country, the 20,000 flyers a month that put him on Raymo and Lonnie B's radar, and the co-sign from Mr. C and DJ Enuff that made him a Heavy Hitter. He gets into his first nervous night on Hot 97, becoming the official DJ for the New York Giants, the Branson lives that pulled in 50 Cent, his ties to Naughty by Nature, and why every DJ coming out of Jersey still has to talk to the guy with the W. DJ Enuff, DJ Camilo, DJ Kast One, and L. Boogs sit down with the man who put Jersey on his back. Catch Wallah and Friends at NJPAC on June 26. The Heavy Hitter DJs Podcast is hosted by DJ Enuff, DJ Camilo, DJ Kast One, and L. Boogs. The show is produced and distributed by Merrick Studios.

08 Buju Banton: Too Too Bad and Built to Last

Buju Banton pulls up to the Heavy Hitter DJs podcast. The reggae and dancehall legend breaks down his new album Too Too Bad, out July 17 on VP Records, the Butterflies single, and why he split the record into three separate rollouts for CD, vinyl, and streaming. He gets into the 90s New York scene when reggae and hip hop ran hand in hand, the philosophy that keeps him reinventing himself across four decades, the Kanye record that came together during COVID, his tribute to Mr. Bogle, and the boys home he funds back in Jamaica. DJ Enuff, DJ Camilo, DJ Kast One, and L. Boogs sit down with one of the most enduring voices in the music. Too Too Bad drops July 17. Real drum, real bass, back to foundation.

episode 07 Rene McLean: The Business of Music vs The Music Business cover

07 Rene McLean: The Business of Music vs The Music Business

Rene McLean, aka RPM, is one of the architects most people never hear about. He put DJ Enuff on, broke records at Virgin, RCA and Electra, started rapping the vans before anyone else, and built the Mix Show Power Summit into the industry monster Jay-Z name dropped years later. He also ran the two room office on 38th Street where the Heavy Hitters, the record pool, the magazine and Dipset mixtapes all happened at once. This week he sits with L. Boogs, DJ Enuff, DJ Camilo, and DJ Kast One to walk the whole run, from a $30 a week internship to buying catalogs with BlackRock. Tap in.

She also gets into her first big gig at Cliff (and the night she left her laptop there), being a female DJ in uptown, the years-long Heavy Hitter courtship from Camilo and Pretty Lou, her flag football league, gaming streams, and the legend of "Caramel Dropa."
