In the early 80’s back before there was a West Coast Hip-Hop scene, a DJ crew in L.A. by the name of Uncle Jamm’s Army ruled the land led by their main attraction, The Egyptian Lover.
Once a former competitor, The Egyptian Lover joined the legendary crew by winning a DJ battle, put together by Uncle Jamm’s Army founder Rodger Clayton, in impressive fashion with his unique and dynamic mixing style.
After successfully bringing out over 10,000 people to The Los Angeles Sports arena for a party, Uncle Jamm’s Army and The Egyptian Lover set their sights on making records and put out jams like, “Yes, Yes, Yes,” “Dial-A-Freak,” and the extremely popular “Egypt, Egypt” before giving way to the likes of Dr. Dre, Ice-T and a slew of other Los Angeles acts that would put the West Coast on the map.
Tim “Styles” Sanchez caught up with The Egyptian Lover in a Hollywood studio as he was preparing his new summer release, “1984,” to hear some of the crazy tales in his 30 plus year career. A portion of this interview was released by the LA Weekly in February, 2014 . The following is the full version, exclusively for DubCNN.com
