Ronald Coleman aka DJ OG Ron C began his DJ career at parties in his northside neighborhood of 5th ward Houston, TX in the 9th grade. In the 12th grade he got a job on the first street team for local Houston radio station Magic 102FM. By graduation Ron C, had earned a grant to attend college at The University of Wiley College in Marshall, Texas to study communication. But Ron would bypass college, preferring a more direct route to radio at leading Houston urban station 97.9FM The Box in promotions as an intern.
In ’94 Ron C was given a paid position at 97.9FM which was the same year he met Michael “5000” Watts who had also been given a DJ gig at the station, who was releasing “party tapes”, the equivalent of mixtapes today. The year was 1994 and a new subgenre of rap that had been birthed by DJ Screw on the south side of Houston had begun to spread to the north side. Ron C, self-proclaimed “screw head”, teamed up with Watts to release screwed and chopped tapes draped in the slowed down styles of their south side counterparts. In ’95, The Swishahouse was founded as a joint venture between the two DJ’s. DJ Screw would let local south side MC’s rap over his tapes and the Swishahouse would soon grow and give the same opportunities to rappers on the north side.
In ‘97 Ron C and Watts opened the teen club called The All Star. Freestyle contests would be held to harvest the city for its talent. Chamillionaire, Slim Thug and Paul Wall attended these contests and would later become members of The Swishahouse. In ’99 Ron C temporarily left radio to release the independent Swishahouse album entitled “The Day Hell Broke Loose” with his co-ceo Mike Watts. The Houston classic would go on to scan over 100k copies. The following year Ron inked an album deal with head 97.9 DJ Madd Hatta’s label Paid-n-Full Records and released “Southern’s Finest” which has scanned over 40k copies and featured the hit single “In Love with my money” by Chamillionaire and Paul Wall, That same year, after teaching Paul Wall to DJ, OG Ron C turned over his half of ownership of the label he helped found and joined the list of members who had left the Swishahouse due to the handling of business.
In 2002, after another brief stint at another station Ron C left radio for good and formed the Wreckin’ Yard as a record label.
“A DJ is supposed to break records…that’s what I do, bring you the next hottest thing. Radio just wasn’t satisfying that need at the time and that’s what I had set out to do with The Swishahouse and what I continue doing thru my independent CD’s, F-ck Action series, and my other mixtapes.”
Over the next 3 years Ron continued his critically acclaimed F-ck Action Series composed of screwed & chopped RnB. He later went on to be nominated for 4 Justo Awards, the grammy of DJ awards, winning 2 Justo’s for “Best Dirty South Mixtape DJ” in 2004 & 2005. Also In 2004 OG Ron C became the official DJ for platinum selling Universal artist Chamillionaire, putting in work as show DJ and offering his skills as exclusive mixtape DJ for Chamillitary mixtapes. In ‘05 he received his first Southern Entertainment award for the best screwed and chopped CD. He also released 2 independent CD’s; “Real Recognize Real” with his Brother Wood which sold over 20k and “Diamonds and Tattoos” with local artist Tow Down which sold over 20k.
In 2006, OG Ron C, who has chopped over 100 independent albums to date, has taken home another Southern Entertainment award, this time for best screwed and chopped slow jam, continues releasing works in his over 200 mixtape series, continues spreading the name of his Wreckin’ Yard Records/Gizzle Entertainment. thru appearances on 106 and Park, Rap City as well as other DJ’s Mixtapes, and continues keeping DJ Screw’s legacy alive by offering his own brand of audio intoxication to artists such as Master P, Chingy, 8ball and MJG, 36 Mafia’s Prophet Posse, Devin tha Dude, Z-Ro, the Ghetto Boys, Lil’ Flip, Pitbull, and Chamillionaire’s “The Sound of Revenge: Screwed and Chopped” which has sold more than any other screwed and chopped CD on a major label. OG Ron C has also appeared in XXL, The Source, Ozone, Murda Dog, Down Magazine as well as an assortment of other publications
