Biz Markie DJ Demo on Rap City (1992)
It's gems like this that keep me youtube searching even after hours and hours of fruitless searches. Just when I'm about to throw in the towel on random youtube searches, I find a classic video like this that keeps sucking me back in.
Diggin on Blue - Mixed by Biz Markie
Original post below.Even though he is well known for rocking the parties of your favorite hip hop moguls, the diabolical one is better known for having records, than he is known for mixing them. With all that said, Biz does his thing on this mix. Obviously, the song selection is air tight, but the real show is how Biz blends together an assortment of Blue Note classics. I'll admit that I slept on this mix because I did not expect much out of Biz Markie. Much to my pleasant surprise, Biz' mixing skills are at center stage with him rocking doubles so all the naysayers (like myself) know that he's nice on the 1's and 2's, but not too much double rocking so that you are not overly annoyed with the same break over and over again.

Biz Markie Cutting-Up the Breaks
The highlight of this video is watching Biz calmly cut-in the Leon Haywood break just as it appears the Mardi Gras break is going to run-out on him. You can tell he has the timing of that break down to the mili-second.
