I remember in 93 I found a tape in the house...put it in the deck and man that shit sounded so slow...I kept taking the tape out thinking it was chewed up or something...Too Short mixed in with Big Mike...I put it back in and a nigga shouted out my homeboy so I was like fuck it and let it play

I promise the only regular shit I ever bought after that was pac or Biggie or Scarface...If it wasn't for Screw I never would've listened to alot of shit...Thursday night at 7 at his house mannnnn the line would be so long...cars down the block everybody getting tapes...that nigga changed lives thru music real talk

I was living in the country for a couple years and I went by his house and told him man them country niggaz be wanting to hear yo shit but I cant keep selling em my tapes...that nigga grabbed a paper bag and put 100 tapes in it and said u good...didn't charge me shit...I was 16 man felt like I was on top of the world :lol:

That was one of the realest niggaz I ever met in my life and loved that dude...I could tell so many stories about them days

Share some more stories, man. I listen to pretty much nothing but DJ Screw's personal tapes in the car and when I work out...the shit really keeps me focused...nobody could fuck with his mixing skills at all to this day, and fuck people who think you have to be high to enjoy Screw....Screw music is beautiful to me
 
I caught on to screw late. Them country boys in the military turned me on to that and Swishahouse around. Actually listening to screw tapes was enlightening. He was a FANTASTIC Dj. The selections and on the fly remixing was great. Screwed up shit didn't blow up here until around 2004-2005, but there was a time that's all I rode to.

Respect to Screw. Lot's of cat's out here trying to do it but that sound is distinctive.
 
i got put on from buying the wrong mike jones cd, i got the mike watts chop/screw album, then i was like this shit is hot , the slow down effect and the mixing ,


i like swishahouse :dance:
 
Man if he wouldn't of got hooked on that lean he would still be here. He died way before his time. I knew the guy they talked about who had cancer who Screw showed love to . RIP Jason

Shit bro there was a point in time when young niggaz on the southside that's ALL we listened to...that shit made the bass hit so goddamn hard in the trunk...Pat Lemon had a box lincoln on 4's with 18's in the trunk...that shit was so hard niggaz didn't like sitting in the back seat...side moldings getting knocked off the car

Screw was so playa...all tapes was dubbed at night...that nigga pretty much was always working man and didn't really sleep alot because he got so popular so quick people always wanted him for something...niggaz going to his house late at night wanting tapes and he wouldn't sell em...man niggaz used to lie saying they knew the nigga :smh:

Thats that boy on the end in the black tee...some niggaz in this pic became rich some died and one fell way off and that nigga had bricks and I looked up to that nigga and despised him at the same time...life is funny like that

I ain't gonna lie to ya Spider back then it wasn't no love for u niggaz on that nawf...plex was deep...if I seen an afro or some braids on a nigga I was ready to pull that iron on that nigga...all that car stealing and jacking them Rosewood niggaz was doing...Northwood Manor niggaz with the bullshit...and plus man it was like two different worlds almost :lol:

it's crazy looking back on all that shit but for real man it just wasn't no love for the other side but I used to fuck all them hoes at Forest Brook Ike and Booker T :yes:

I got locked up with a bunch of niggaz from the nawf...a nigga from Rosewood and all over and them niggaz was some playaz but they just had fucked up hustles...one of them niggaz from Rosewood was trying to steal a Uhaul truck and the cops shot and killed him because he had a screwdriver in his hand and thats what he used to steal cars:smh:

Nowadays some of my best potnaz outta 44 and Settegast

You do realize I'm a Northwood Manor nigga, right??? Born and raised, so i remember all the BS...shit wearing red back in the gap would equal ass whooping on site in them days....hell i still don't wear red to this day because of that shit.....and seeing u niggas with them south side fades.....

I remember them days too well, i remember listening to i think it was pokey rapping on a beat "off in rosewood/where them hoes stay" after his load got stole and FUCKED UP by some Homestead niggas...

And trust me i ran thru worthing and a gang of they hoes back in 01, 02...hell ya boy flip almost caught one from me once back in 04, 05 behind a worthing chick i was fucking with. Nigga used to drive that suburban with the wrap on it for that game over CD that came out....he used to be right over there by that elementary school by claygate, right off of botany.....i think hump, a.d., one of them niggas used to live there

Now i look back on that shit like they was the good ole days.....i loved growing up in those times even though every time i went to the south side it was DRAMA

I'm glad I grew up in the H during this era.
I saw all this shit come to life.
Kingleo is absolutely correct.
Back then, the rivalry between the Southside and the nawf was thick.
Great post.

i barely even remember how that stupid north side/south side beef started....

i don't know if one of them dudes hopped fly on a screw tape or if we was just hating on the south side's shine....but i do know we had them south side niggas HEATED (as evident by kingleo's threat to have put that iron in my life for rocking the braids) because we was so grimy and had that "i don't give a fuck" attitude about us.

like i say when keke came up to chocolate town and started trying to perform "south side" the club went BANANAS, and not in a good way. this nigga killed the music and was got real bopper-ish, talking about "north side ni99as y'all ain't balling........where the ni99as pusing blades? where the niggas sitting on buttons or riding on 4's?" that shit must have hit a button because shit just started FLYING.....i know that ni99a felt relieved once he bust that left out the lot then the right onto 45 SOUTH....

but later on it's a trip....some other south side nigga performed at buffalo soldier off of homestead and 59....i can't remember who it was though....may have been pokey, not sure though...anyway them north side ni99as started clowning and this dude dropped the mic and pulled out that iron! he was like FUCK THIS you niggas ain't doing shit to me :lol: he calmly walked off stage and burnt out...

man them was the days and like ole boy say i'm so glad i came up during those times.....houston was LIVE back then man....carrington's, chocolate town, oasis, that MAICA MAICA,
 
Po-yo pulled out that iron?!? :eek::lol:


Dog I'm not sure who this was that did this cuz i wasn't there when this happened. This one is strictly off the strength of a good friend of mine and a few of his potnas who was there. I'm pretty sure he said it was pokey, but again I'm not 100% on this one. But yeah man ole boy pulled out the iron ON STAGE! Dropped the Mic and pulled it out, READY!
