Mark Ronson on How Being a DJ Has Helped Him as a Musician and Producer
Mark Ronson and Bruno Mars in the studio.
Mark Ronson recently stopped by Charlie Rose’s show to discuss his Uptown Special album and what it’s like working with some of the biggest names in music. The Grammy-winner also spoke on his beginnings as a DJ and how it’s helped him as a musician and producer.
“Being a DJ is probably the closest you can get to having a modern musicology kind of course, you know. You learn everything about musicianship, arrangement, playing, especially if you’re studying old records. There’s a lot of great DJs like Dr. Dre and people like that that went on to become producers because it’s something about the way your mind works, about putting together music. But there’s also amazing producers that have never touched vinyl, so I think everybody has their own kind of entrance point.”

Mark Ronson’s “Uptown Funk” spent 14 weeks at number one this year, tying for the longest run at the top so far this century. However, the British DJ/producer had largely worked in the shadows of the artists he produced until then, like Adele and Amy Winehouse. Despite winning three Grammy awards for his work with Winehouse, it took years before Ronson achieved mainstream success as a solo artist.
CBS News recently aired an interview with Ronson about his dynamic career, from being a DJ and producing behind the scenes to evolving into a successful solo act. The eight-minute piece explores his relationship with Winehouse, the grueling process of recording “Uptown Funk” with Bruno Mars, and how it feels to have a number one song.

Kid Impersonates Mystikal in Hilarious ‘Feel Right’ Video
Mark Ronson and Mystikal have performed “Feel Right” on various TV shows over the last month, and we expected to see the veteran rapper do the same in the music video. Such is not the case though, as today the two dropped hilarious visuals for the funky single that features a group of children impersonating Mystikal and the band. We’re not sure if the kid lip synching to Mystikal can actually rap or sing, but his stage presence is clearly off the charts.
