Suckle was the first West Indian DJ and he had this fantastic source of music.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I had been interested in Indian music and I actually started studying Tableaus before I met him.
There are certainly talented instrumentalists coming from India. I see them performing all over the world.
English and world music were something that I had immense love for, and to get together with a fellow Indian and bring this sound and vibe to the world feels great.
The first record I ever listened to was Elvis Presley, and I remember thinking, 'Man this guy is cool!' The swagger he had really helped my confidence, because he really made me think that a white boy could make music like this.
The first Latin music that blew my mind was bumba, which was a Puerto Rican beat.
I like Honey Singh. I love the music that he does.
I've always been a fan of Nigerian artist D'banj. He's now signed to Kanye West's Good Music label.
All India radio was worldwide.
DJs are the new rock stars.
He was an original, an innovator, and his influence will forever live on in our culture. Whether they know it or not, all DJs have been influenced by him. Thank you, DJ AM.
