DJ Mehdi.

We weren't super close, but he was a good friend and I always admired him greatly, as a person, a DJ and a producer. 
I consider myself lucky to have DJed with him many times. We had some fantastic conversations and I've witnessed some amazing moments.

Hear's to the memory of our friend DJ Mehdi... A very special dude.


When I was in Paris in May: Mehdi, Brodinski and I threw a Rap party at Social Club... It was really fun. Here's some footage of Mehdi I shot there on my flip cam. It was a wildly fun night, and I'll never forget it.





A few nights later, I went to visit Mehdi and Busy P while they were playing at a club called La Bellevilleoise and shot the following footage. Crazy night, please epic stage dive at 8:30:

One of my favorite Mehdi releases, was this lesser know mixtape of his own beats from 2006 called Les Loukums, based on Dilla's Donuts album concept.

You will be missed my friend...
