Here's one of the cats I grew up on.
A dope ass DJ.. Still is...
He's one of the reasons I do what I do.
Man....
I remember when I was coming up as a local DJ and i got to get back to the DJ area at one of the gigs...He was playing 2 Live Crew - "Mr. Mix Cut It Up".. Rocking doubles of it... I was went up to him and asked..."What record is that?".. He told me..but he didn't have to.. I was a nobody back then..
There was also this time my boy Crisis & I had a party.... we hired Streek to play cause we both agreed that he was fresh.. He came thru and rocked RUN-D.M.C. - "Peter Piper".. doubles...again... Crisis & I couldn't believe it....we just stared and watched...
One more thing that comes to mind is...without Streek... I wouldn't have started buying doubles.. I remember he told me while we were in his garage as I looked at his records..
I was like..
"You have doubles of everything!"
Streek then said to me....
"You don't buy doubles?!"
Anyhow..
Shout Out to a few O.C. legends...
before anyone knew what O.C. was... (Orange County)
Arabian Knight, DJ Raw (NIck), Crisis, Jam 3, Sweet Gee, Naughty Boy (R.I.P.)
..there's alot more but I can't remember exact names...
So let's listen to a intro to one of DJ Streek's mixtapes from 1989.
If you did a mix tape back in these days.. You needed to have an intro like this

That's pretty ill. I can't say I ever heard of DJ Streek before though.
