The Heavy Hitter DJs Podcast is back with Episode 2, and this one hits different. DJ Enuff, DJ Camilo, DJ Kast One, and Lboogs brought in DJ Lonnie B from Richmond, Virginia and his daughter Aliyah the DJ. What started as a conversation about Camilo's run as the international club king turned into something deeper: a group of DJs who built careers their kids grew up watching, sitting in a room with the next generation that watched and decided to pick it up.
Lonnie B has been in radio for 28 years. Key to the city of Richmond. On air in six markets. One of the most complete music libraries in the game. He is that guy. But the moment that will stay with you is simple. He was in Baltimore a few weeks ago. A guy in a Virginia State jersey had no idea who Lonnie B was. Did not care. But he knew Aliyah. Lonnie B said it plainly: soon they will not know me as Lonnie B. They will know me as Aliyah the DJ's dad.
He did not say it with any sadness. He said it like it was the plan all along.
That is the kind of torch-passing this platform supports. The full story connects back to Episode 1 and to the mixtapekings.com archive. If you are new here, this is a good place to start.
