Being a DJ one of the things that I had to decide over and
over when it came to downloading music was should I download the clean or dirty
version of a song. When I first started being a DJ it really didn’t matter because
I was in college and that was my only crowd to entertain for. But as I got more experience in clubs I began
to pay more attention to censored music. So I began to download both versions
of songs but then it became a huge clutter in playlist. When it really comes
down to it in my experience it really all depends on the crowds of people you
entertain. Now I will use myself as an example, in the beginning my crowd was
college students and club goers. I could play the dirty version because nobody
really cared and some people rather hear the dirty version so it made since.
Then I began to DJ for the student organizations on campus events where
teachers and important figures would be at. At this point I still really didn’t
download clean versions, I just played music that I knew for a fact didn’t have
any cussing in it. As my DJ career progressed I began to entertain a lot more
corporate events and family fun parties. The first question I always hear from
new clients is “DO YOU PLAY CLEAN VERSIONS OF SONGS?”. This is when I began to
realize very quickly how important it is to have clean versions of music
especially with how explicit music is today. So in the end I basically started
to just download the clean versions of songs, it makes everything a lot easier.
Believe me nothing is worse than having a song play for family or corporate
event and a cuss word or the N-Bomb drops, you only have a half a second to somehow
edit the song on the fly, but most of the time you can’t do it without the
crowd noticing. Now one other thing I notice with clean and radio versions of
songs is that they are NOT completely clean some of the times. Some cuss words are
considered clean in radio edited songs. So
in the end I just go with clean versions of songs, this method works the best
for me. Thank you for your time and stay tuned for more info on various subjects
