About DJ SCOOB DOO:
If you ever get a chance to meet DJ Scoob Doo, you’ll quickly find out he’s more than a DJ for artists like Jim Jones and Lil Wayne; he’s one of the leaders of the next generation of street music. Born in Brooklyn, Scoob’s early life was held together by two hard working parents. Moving to East Orange and later to Orange, New Jersey, Scoob never left his New York roots behind, and his early DJ career consisted of making mixtapes for classmates in school off of late night radio shows. In 1993 Scoob’s mother passed away and much of what Scoob did during his life, after his loss, didn’t mean much of anything. As he puts it, “I thought the world was gonna end at any given minute.” It wasn’t until Scoob wanted and got a pair of turntables that he considered and began to vent out bottled emotions that held him back from living his life to the fullest. Not only did he vent, but he also went to the extreme. To date, Scoob produces the rapidly growing Streets Talk DVD, countless mixtapes series and the “Banned From Your Radio” show. Scoob Doo is currently getting more involved with other ventures, which include directing, producing, real estate and fashion.
