DJ SCREW TRIBUTE PAGE

DJ Screw, born Robert Earl Davis, Jr. (July 20, 1971 – November 16, 2000), was a central figure in the Houston hip hop scene. His innovation included the trademark technique of slowing down the basic tracks of a cut when he remixed it. This process is called "screwing" a song. Slowing down the song was supposed to recreate the effect of recreationally using Promethazine with Codeine also known as "lean" or "purple drank" in Houston slang. Like a true legend, DJ Screw pioneered, perfected, and popularized a unique movement. A moment of silence for the late great Mayor of Screwston, TX.
