“Whatever’s going on in music, I can make it my own. I satisfy all audiences. You can’t put me in a category. I keep people guessing, and that whole mystery would make me a fan of myself†- LudacrisThank You For Visiting DJ Baddmixx's Official Myspace Page.
DJ Baddmixx started spinning vinyl records in 1983. His influence at the time was The Hotmix 5, who was considered the original Chicago mixmasters. He credits them with helping him become the mixmaster that he is today. The first mixer who inspired DJ Baddmixx to scratch was Farley "Funkin' Keith, also known as Farley "Jackmaster Funk." His early work saw him spinning mostly Chicago house, Italo house imports, and B-boy breaking anthems.
DJ Baddmixx won the first of many DJ competitions in 1985. Although he didn't consider himself a battle-type DJ, he was motivated by the competition. He was able to distinguish himself from other DJs by being known for his diverse musical tastes and his original mixing and scratching techniques. He was inspired by DJs such as Mix Master Ice, Joe Cooley, Jazzy Jeff, and Cash Money.
1993 saw the commencement of DJ Baddmixx's mixology graduation. He won the B96 "Chicago Mixer Search '93" competition. In 1996, he opened the original Mixxmusic. He went on to form several DJ crews, including The Mixxmobb, The Relics and The Vinylists. He also worked with these artists as a producer. This experience eventually allowed him to work with several record companies in the Chicago area and beyond. DJ Baddmixx also produced a number of well-known mixes, including The Rayz-Up Sampler, Baddmixx 1.0, Blendables 1 & 2, and Juke-Jointz Vol. 1.
