‘MikiDz Show’ Hosts Spirited Discussion With ‘R.O.A.D. Podcast’

MikiDz Show

MikiDz Show

The R.O.A.D. Podcast celebrated its 100th episode live on the MikiDz Show on Monday. It featured the MikiDz and R.O.A.D. hosts, along with guest DJs Roctakon, Graham Funke, StoneRokk, and Scooter. (Moma filled in for R.O.A.D.‘s D-Miles, who was chilling in Aruba).

The live stream began with a discussion on the hottest club tracks of the summer. The crew analyzed the impact of hits like “Hot Girl Summer,” “Act Up,” “My Type,” “Truth Hurts,” and “Drogba (Joanna).”

The discussion then turned to a more serious topic: the decline in pay for DJs (1:26:00 mark). The crew discussed why they believe rates have gone down and how to deal with it. Audience members Jayceeoh, Bella Fiasco, Lady Sha, and Nitrane joined the convo.

With the passions flowing, the crew wrapped up the show with an East Coast vs. West Coast DJ debate (2:07:40). The discussion got a bit heated, though both sides made good points.

Watch the full episode below (it begins at the seven-minute mark). An audio-only version is also available via Mixcloud.

The MikiDz Show is hosted by DJs MikiWAR, Dainjazone, and Rell.

The R.O.A.D. Podcast is hosted by DJs Crooked, Jaime Da Great, Neva, and D-Miles.
