Dubcnn was given the great opportunity to speak with the west coast legend known as Egyptian Lover. Longtime fans of west coast hip-hop will surely remember the name of the DJ who started it all. A pioneer of the L.A. music scene over 26 years ago, Egyptian Lover, along with Uncle Jamm’s Army, set the tone for what would eventually become the sound of Los Angeles during the early 80’s. In this exclusive interview with Egyptian Lover, we get his thoughts on the west coast music scene today versus when he first pioneered the movement in during the 80’s, we discuss his involvement with Uncle Jamm’s Army, and get his perspective on the DJ’s place in hip-hop today.

This is an interview for all you old-school heads to reminisce with, pop those old dance mixes in the player and pull out those old Whodini, Soul Sonic Force and One Way records. For all you new-school heads, it’s time to get your history lesson on where this west coast music came from. If you think it started with NWA, 2Pac, Ice Cube, Snoop Dogg, or whoever your favorite rapper is out on the west, then this interview will definitley give you knowledge.
