Grandmaster Flash & DJ AM Unite

Welcome to Young Hollywood. com.

The first DJ to be inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.

My name is DJ Grandmaster Flash.

We're here with the man of the night, Grandmaster Flash.

You know, many people are so excited to see you up there tonight.

It's going to be good.

It's going to be really good.

I just walked in the building, and it's like no me without an audience, so she's saying there's an audience waiting for me.

I'm an audience waiting for you.

I'm psyched.

I'm hyped.

Once the energy comes back from the crowd, then I hype me.

I like to go, you know, back and forth, forth and back.

Back and forth, forth and back.

How do you build the energy when you're on stage?

Like that first five minutes, I'm trying to find your pulse.

Once I find your pulse, then it's it's all over.

And you're collaborating with DJ AM tonight.

Excited about that?

Oh yeah, of course.

He's an incredible DJ.

He's done some big things.

I'm happy.

As a hip-hop pioneer, legend, are there some people that you really, really enjoy watching?

Snoop.

I love to death.

There's a lot of people like that.

We're very, very close here to Jerry Rice.

This is going to be so much fun.

I can't wait to hit the dance floor.

What song really gets you going like on the dance floor?

Like, what do you got it here?

Like this song right here.

You know, you bounce to it.

You look it.

Miss Cheryl Hines here has her bling on.

That's beautiful.

I know, my man of Boogie Down.

I'm going to get down.

I haven't said I'm going to go down, and then that's just taking it to an ugly, and I didn't forget, scratch the last one.

Go ahead.

I'm with the men of Hanson.

Who are some musical acts or musical people that you guys are listening to right now?

I was just honestly opening up my Simon and Garfunkel stuff the other day.

I was like, "Oh my God, this is so good."

We're here with DJ Casey Connor.

How much has changed from like Grandmaster Flash days physically doing it?

Now it's like got the laptops and all the technology.

Yeah, I mean, you're still mixing.

I mean, the basically the laptop is just for your music catalog.

You don't have to carry crates around.

You don't have to hire roadies to, you know, carry your your records around.

So, it's just all about digital right now.

Are you going to be able to contain yourself, or are you going to like jump up there?

I might dance.

I might get on there and do a little quick ones and twos action with Grandmaster Flash.
