Roc Raida will always be one of the best turntablist ever, I still get bummed thinking that he is gone. I remember watching the documenttary "Scratch" at A party, where everyone was either high or drunk. When they showed RAIDA's DMC performance where he is cutting up "Ninja of rap" I bugged out and the place went silent. Everyone made me rewind it so they could watch. The drunks were screaming in amazement, the stoners either had a look of pure confusion at the speed of his technique or they were bobbing their heads.
Raida will always be missed... RIP!
A few hours ago at the UK DMC Finals, The X-Ecutioners paid a special tribute to the late Roc Raida.
After perfoming a 10 minute routine, Rob Swift made an emotional speech about Raida before he, Total Eclipse and Precision performed Raida's favourite routine.
