For those that never met DJ Dusk, let me tell you a little about my friend. Dusk (along with Miles) was the man behind LA’s most authentic underground hip-hop weekly, Root Down. During the years he put the party on, he and his event’s reputation attracted the creme de la creme of the music industry, who usually performed for free just because that’s how loved Dusk was. A few years ago, tragedy struck when Dusk was run over by a drunk driver. Typical of his character, he saved the life of another person by pushing them out of the way of the car, giving his life in the process. Dusk was a hero in life, and he remains a hero in death. RIP, friend.

Peep the video of him MCing the Soundclash to get a feel for how hype his shit was. Much more than a DJ battle, Soundclash had ill producers like Will.I.Am making beats live onstage for the crowd’s reaction. Watch for the full length version from Mochilla.
