“Cashin Out” Producer DJ Spinz Talks Radio Success; Explains Term ‘Keisha’

(AllHipHop News) Every summer, radio personnel and record label executives alike are looking for that breakthrough summer song to heat up the airwaves.

Early on, as this summer gets under way, radio stations nationwide are playing the Atlanta-born record, “Cashin Out” by rapper Cash Out, and produced by none other than DJ Spinz.

While Hip-Hop fans may still be getting used to Cash Out, they have already embraced the music of DJ Spinz over the last year, as Spinz has been responsible for the popular songs “Riot” by 2 Chainz and “Ring, Ring,” a Future and Rick Ross collaboration featured on Rick Ross’ Rich Forever mixtape.

AllHipHop.com caught up with the 23-year- old producer and radio DJ to find out the story behind the hit song, “Cashin Out”, and how the two came up with the hook and song.

“‘Keisha’ is another term for loud, as we would call it, or good weed. ‘Nina,’ you know, that’s a 9 millimeter, and ‘Cashin Out’ really speaks for itself. Me and Cash Out, we got in the studio in November, and we were going through a couple of records. He gave me the hook, I fit it around what he said, and it turned out to be crazy,” DJ Spinz told AllHipHop.com.

In popular Hip-Hop fashion, the remix was released last week and features Fabolous, Young Jeezy, Akon, and Yo Gotti – all artists that Cash Out and DJ Spinz hand-picked.

“We wanted to get each person for different reasons. We got Akon because he is a huge international artist, and Akon is one of my favorite artists of all time. Jeezy because he is a legend. Fab reached out and jumped on, and [Yo] Gotti, those were the best verses we heard, and I thought it would be a good balance because it’s not too heavy in one spectrum,” DJ Spinz explained.

While Spinz is new to the game in many people’s eyes, he actually has been working his hand in music for nearly a decade.

“I’ve been DJing since I was 14, and I got into radio back in Augusta, Georgia, my hometown, back when I was 16. So I started doing a music a while ago, and I really started making beats when I got to college,” DJ Spinz said.

Spinz has been busy on the heels of the “Cashin Out” success, as he has work with Big Sean, Waka Flocka, Travis Porter, Roscoe Dash, Future, 2 Chainz, and several others artists on the cusp of release.

“Me and Future did some more work, me and 2 Chainz, me and Waka Flocka did that “Rooster in my Rari” track and Rich Kids who just got a deal, work with Kid Ink, just continuing to make this quality sh*t. Also, me and Gucci got a record that features Fab as well; that’s co-produced by my homie, C4. That’s called “Makes No Sense”,” an excited DJ Spinz told AllHipHop.com

DJ Spinz, who was mentored by DJ Scream, can be heard on HoodRich Radio on Atlanta’s Hot 107.9 on Tuesdays and Fridays, as well as Sirius XM’s Hoodrich Radio with DJ Scream and Cory B.

Signs The World Is Coming To An End: “The New AIDS”

Signs The World Is Coming To An End: “The New AIDS”

Just when you thought it was safe and Magic Johnson had some magic medicine for your johnson, there is apparently a new form of AIDS emerging. This time, we’re lucky! This isn’t a sexually transmitted disease! This disease is transmitted via some form of parasite and they are calling it “The New AIDS of the Americas.” JUST GREAT! The reason for this is because the early symptoms of the disease are very similar to AIDS/HIV. Chagas Disease disease is considered a neglected disease and very much overlooked. LIKE AIDS? Yep.

 

Anyway, out is very much like AIDS in that the symptoms take years to emerge and is transferred from trypanosomes, some damn murderous parasite that was probably created by the government to control the population since the real AIDS has slowed up. But, over 300,000 people have this affliction and poor people are getting hit the hardest. Sound familiar? Yep. Read more on it here:


This real or fake?

BET CONFIRM TERRENCE AND ROCSI CONFIRM LEAVING 106 & PARK”

Here is the statement to confirm what we have already known.

“Today, after seven exciting years, 106 & Park hosts Terrence J and Rocsi announced that they will be leaving the show. It is no secret that there are a number of opportunities coming their way and we’re fortunate that they’ve been with 106 & Park for so long. They will be staying on the show for a while, so that we can have a ‘victory lap’ — a celebration of their years at the helm of 106 & Park — before their departure. Terrence J and Rocsi are destined for great success and we at BET Networks will always take pride in being their original home — and be a place where I hope they’ll always feel welcome.”

These two know something we don’t well. Terrence J does and I suspect with the Eddie Murphy rumors swirling, Rocs does too.

Daily Word: Take Another Shot!!

Happy Wins-Day, my saints and sinners!

Welcome to the day that you begin telling yourself the truth! The truth is that those who want a
dream bad enough make it happen, and those who don’t make excuses! The truth is that only those who are willing to do and dare are the ones who will ever achieve success!! The truth is….. Failure is necessary, and if you are failing correctly, it is an essential part of succeeding!!

I’ve been a failure for most of my life! In fact, I have more failures than I do successes!! I’ve tried many things, and some I was extremely successful at, and others I failed miserably!! Truth be
told, as I type this message, I may be failing to get my point across!! But the other truth is that who cares?!!!

Today’s Daily Word is dedicated to taking another shot!! Contrary to popular belief, you never only have one chance to do anything!! As long as you have breath in your body, you have all the chances you are willing to take!! If the door closes, then wait outside! If you’re tired of waiting, then climb through the window! If the window is boarded up, then break down the door!! If the door is made of steal, then buy a helicopter fly above, and then climb down….. (OK, sorry, I got
ridiculous with the last one!)

But my point goes back to what I said earlier…. Those who want a dream bad enough make it happen, and those who don’t, make excuses!! “I only have one chance so I want to do it
right” is an EXCUSE!!!!! Stop procrastinating!!! The universe is abundant, and the chances you take will be what get you to the next level of success!! Fail!!! Fail miserably!! But fail honorably!! Care not for the critic, because as the critic is criticizing, you are on the battlefield getting closer to your victory!!! Take another shot!!! NOTHING CAN STOP YOU BUT YOU!!!

Non Hip-Hop Rumors: Is Beyonce Pregnant Again?

By: Chuck Creekmur (@ChuckCreekmur) Updated Category: Rumors

ITS SILLY SEASON!

Again, this is a silly rumor, but lets take it there. Beyonce may be with child again, according to Hello Beautiful.

Now, forget the fact that her career is the king of her life, but she seemingly managed to squeeze out Blue Ivy in between albums. The internets are saying this isn’t even a rumor, but its a FACT that B is about to give Blue Ivy a brother or sister.

The rumors are saying that B and Jay are looking to drop the new bambino next year and that she is presently 2 months in.

I, like others, wonder if B is really going to take more time off to have a baby. Certainly, if she is preg, we are happy for her. Wonder if she breast feeds? Awkward weird thought.

I’m out!
