With a deep history in mixtapes and plenty of high-profile DJ work behind him,
DJ A.P. gets respect both in the studios and in the streets. Besides his DJ work with
Ronny Jordan and
Channel Live,
DJ A.P. is also a mixtape maven. In 1993 he formed the NRC (Negative Reflection Crew) with
Just Blaze (then known as
DJ Just). Originally a New Jersey collective, NRC spread worldwide with members in Seattle (DJ B-Mello), Houston (Baby Roo), and all points in between. The crew became known for their party music DJ sets, which avoided spinning plain old hits in favor of remixes and blends. They captured this excitement in their street-level mixtape series Against All Odds and the freestyle-heavy Sudden Impact, which took The Source magazine's Tale of the Tapes number one spot in 2001.
DJ A.P. has also released numerous club singles on the AV8 label, both as a solo artist and with DJ Sizzahandz as State 2 State. ~ David Jeffries
