DJ Christion
One of the key record breakers
in Tampa, Wild 98.7’s DJ Christion
holds down the airwaves and
local clubs. He’s a member of
several teams including Turntable
Assassins, We the Best, and
Terror Squad.
When can people in town for the Super Bowl
check you out on the radio
They can catch me at 5pm all week long and
on the night show. Pretty much everyone
that’s gonna be in town will be on the radio
too. I know [Fat] Joe, Ross, and Khaled are
gonna be in town.
What is your role with Terror Squad and We
the Best Are you the official DJ or do you
have some other responsibilities
Between Terror Squad and We the Best the
main role is holding down my market and
making sure all the people hear the latest and
greatest, whether it be from Joe or Khaled. I
give my input on any of their singles or projects.
I also DJ for Ace Hood.
Do you have plans to drop any mixtapes
I’m going to put out my own album within the
next couple of years. I plan to hit up every city
and get fans in other cities. I was trying to do
something different and I put out a Tampa to
Miami remix. I had Plies on it, 2 Pistols, Tom G,
Khaled, Ace, even Orlando, my PD, was on the
record. Two or three times a year I plan to put
out something to keep the streets knowing I
can put a record together. But it’s all a process,
I got a lot of learning to do. I gotta get fans all
over the world and once that happens, it’ll be
time to put out the album.
Who’s poppin’ in the Tampa scene Are there
any new artists from the area that people
should be familiar with
They should be checking for people like Tom
G, Key, Strizzo, OGK, Trinity, Javon Black, there’s
so many. Everybody has their own thing, but
Tom G definitely has a few club bangers.
What’s the word on the street with Tampa
Tony Has anyone talked to him recently
Oh yeah, he’s holding his head up. Unfortunately,
it didn’t pan out the way he wanted it
to. We stay focused on his movement, play his
songs here and there, trying to help out somehow.
I want to say he has an appeal going on,
but I’m not too sure. But the city always has
his back. We want to make sure people never
forget about Tony.
So what makes your city worthy of a Super
Bowl Why is Tampa the shit
It’s a melting pot. If you’re a freak and you
need a strip club fix, this is like the capital for
strip clubs. Then we got the party scene with
Ybor City. I’ll be at Club Skye throughout the
week. There’s a party every night. Downtown
and South Tampa are going on. It’s gonna
be freezing, but if you wanna hit the ocean
you can drive to the St. Pete area. You got the
Clearwater area. It’s something for everybody
here. And of course you have DJ Christion
holding it down on Wild 98.7.
What else would you like to mention
As a step to the album I’m putting out, I’m
gonna put out a mix CD with exclusive records
from each artist I work with. It’s called Cadillac
Crack and that will come out in the spring.
Shouts to my Wild 98.7 family, Tampa, St. Pete,
OZONE, Turntable Assassins, Terror Squad, We
the Best, and Black Group Marketing. //
