gimantalon, August 30th 2009 |DJ Premier Reacts On DJ AM Death; He Spoke With DJ AM Less Then 24h Before His Death!! Crazy..
Adam Michael Goldstein (March 30, 1973 – August 28, 2009) was an American club disc jockey better known as DJ AM. Goldstein was a former member of the rock band Crazy Town, and scratched on albums for Papa Roach, Madonna, and Will Smith, among others. He collaborated with Travis Barker of Blink-182 at the 2008 MTV Video Music Awards, and has appeared in several television series.
On September 19, 2008, Goldstein was seriously injured when a Learjet he was traveling in crashed on takeoff. Singer Mandy Moore, with whom he was close, flew to be by his side at the Georgia hospital where he was staying.
Goldstein was found dead at his New York City apartment at around 5:20 p.m. on Friday, August 28, 2009.

Rare DJ Premier Radio Appearances ’98
As a fan of hip hop I have listened to many DJ Premier productions and seen some of his interviews, from reviewing both I think the voice and feel of the music he makes matches the beliefs he stands by in spoken word. His work is inspirational in the importance of discovering and embracing underground hip hop first, because it’s where the true essence of the music, talent and artform is born from. Part of the legacy of Gangstarr to me is their career example of how to stand by your beliefs in life and build upon them towards your own success and freedom of voice, no matter what obstacle or odds may exist that threaten to knock you off your path. I imagine it was no easy process to release consecutive classics on commercial labels the way they did, with albums speaking in rebellion against record companies and the corporate machine that threatens hip hop culture.Premier has and continues to release gems independently, also bless the radio airwaves with quality material, here are a few I’ve listened to recently. This first one was a visit by him up at Stretch & Bobbito’s show a few months before Moment of Truth was released, Premier was filling in for Stretch on this episode. I remember ’98 as a period of great production output by Premier and a time when independent hip hop releases and artist careers were emerging against the mainstream hip hop machine. I still go back and find songs from this era I like from many unheard-of artists.
Killah Priest stops by to promote his Heavy Mental album and kicks some rhymes for Bobbito, Premier runs through some quality underground hip hop cuts of ’98, such as Neek The Exotic’s “Exotic is Raw”, Tame One and Fatal Hussein’s “Everyday”, N.O.T.S. Click featuring Big L “Work Is Never Done” and a world premiere of “New York Straight Talk”. If you manage to find radio sets by Premier or Pete Rock from this period online, expect to hear quality material spun by them every time.

Deams – The Legacy Intro (Feat. DJ Premier)
Deams is coming with an EP, and every real hip hop head will know it!! Now as I look to the poll I see a lot of people are between 20-25 years so I wouldn’t blame you if you didn’t know Deams immediately. But most of you don’t need the introduction like always hehe. Deams is the first international artist of the Gang Starr Foundation, born and raised in The Netherlands he released a single with his friend Allstar Fresh (who is a very famous DJ over here).
Later he moved to New York city and become Netherlands first MCs in the New York hip hop scene, lived in the same house as DJ Premier, Guru and Jeru the Damaja when they were all making their debut… He got into Zulu Nation thanks to Afrika Bambaata himself and in the Gang Starr Foundation where he got one single, produced by Guru. The single is still considered as an underground classic, the 12inch is still growing in price! For those who wanna know why we didn’t heard more about Deams at that time was because he had to move back to The Netherlands due to difficulties with his green card.
(This is the remix version which isn’t produced by Guru, the woman in the limo is former porn star Heather Hunter)
Now more then ten years later Deams is finally having his debut EP “The Legacy“, you could say he almost did the same struggle as Percee P in a way. The EP has featurings like Jeru the Damaja, Big Daddy Kane, Ice-T, De La Soul and even more. He even got a beat by DJ Premier for his intro, who can say he has a intro by Premo with Preems voice and scratches on it? Man, this shit is going to be crazy. Specially for Europe! Support this shit, if you are going to buy the new Jay-Z album then you need to cop this album too haha. Judge yourself! Enough talk, I would like to thank Deams himself to give me the opportunity to exclusively release this Premo beat on my blog, big up!! Enjoy the fire yourself:
Deams – The Legacy Intro (Feat. DJ Premier) (Prod. by DJ Premier)
