Rest in power Roc Raida.
I can say he was a true inspiration to me because he was among the few groups of DJ's that made you want to become a DJ. A DJ that showed and proved his skills day in and day out. A DJ you'd always looked up to through videos, pictures, blogs, classic hip-hop records, and everything else that had his presence.

Roc Raida is a house hold name when you're involved in the hip-hop lifestyle. Whenever someone brought up scratching, and body tricks...the first name that came to mind was always Roc Raida hands down.
Much respect to the big homie, even though I never got to meet him or check out his shows, I still feel like he was a mentor to me and to everyone else who followed him.
Check out some of the many videos of Roc Raida killing it on the Turntables. Right here.
