Band Members:Even though DJ Ritz aims to be The World Favorite Cracker, there's more
to this Tampa native than a po white trash schtick. He has been a deejay
for nearly a decade, releasing MIX CD's hosted by luminaries like Lil
Jon and the Eastside Boyz, Pitbull, DJ Paul of Three 6 Mafia, Young Buck
of G-Unit and the list goes on.
He got his deejaying start in the mid-90s using the turntables at a
local record store for $10 an hour. After four months, he had saved
enough money to buy his first pair of Technics 1200 and it was onward
and upward since then.
His next move was a power move joining Mad Linx’s Tactics and
Methods record pool, establishing him as a street-team grinder. Soon,
his turntable skills, as well as his passion and ear for music, landed
him a slot with Linx’s deejay squad The Shut It Down Squad. Linx,
Ritz, DJ Silent Rage, DJ Knucklez, DJ Q-45, DJ LowDown, Tony Montana, DJ Ryno & DJ Mingle Mixx. DJ Ritz and his work has been featured in several online and print publications including MTV.com and Ozone Magazine.
Ritz dropped his first Mix CD, "Show You" in
2002, and is currently preparing for a bomb-filled 2009, with WMNF's
Saturday Night Shutdown every Sat. Night/Sun. Morning from 12am - 3am
and as official deejay for Mo Gutta Game. Stay tuned.
