****THE HARDEST WORKING MAN IN THE BUSINESS****

MIKE PERRI AKA MC FLIPSIDE

One day i was downtown Hamilton record shopping at my friend Mark's record shop Dr.Disc. I was new to the dj world and would hang around the shop asking questions on how to dj? what type of needles i should use to scratch with ? How to scratch and what records to use ?. I was known as a hang around , every Saturday i would take the bus (1A king) downtown to Dr.Disc to look around and get ideas about djing.But on this Saturday November 24th 2001 my life was about to change.Mark from dr disc invited me to a drum and bass show, at first i was not about it but said hey what the hell let's give it a try.He said that his friend Mc Flipside was playing with
Freaky Flow and that its a show i must not miss.So later that night i put on my fiction pants and jumped on the bus downtown I remember it was really cold out and dark and I had to walk from jackson square all the way to Queen st because the venue changed to the Casbah. As i walked in the doors i made my way over to the Dr Disc crew in the back of the club, Mark ,Jumana and Aron were sitting down chillin ,I was a bit nervous because it wasn't my type of scene but Mark and Jumana made me feel at home.

Its now 900pm and Mark comes up to me and says "hey ang i want to introduce you to my friend Mike " i walked over to shake his hand ,Mark say's "mike this is Angelo Nasso good friend of mine this is his first show " mike smiles and bends down to me and says with his hand over his mouth" i will not disapoint ,you will feel my vibe and have a good time." I told mike"hey bro i was a big fan of your late night show Trippin on Energy radio show " he smiled and went on stage.

It is now 10pm showtime ,mike and freaky flow fucking blew the room up, great energy and vibe his flow was brillant the way he used the mic spitting crazy rhymes that flowed so tight it was breath taking.

Ok so after there performance I got to go and talk to the booth of them on stage.They were so cool and very humble and thankful to me as i kept giving them praise on there show. So i asked for there autographs and they went on there way back to Toronto. I was happier than shit when i got home ,that i had Mc Filpslide's autograph ,I still have it somewhere packed away.
Over the years i met up with him when i saw dj Dan in toronto last year and at Footwork with Simon Jain who by the way just realeased his first track cardinal sin . Mike will always be one of my Favourite djs and producers because he is down to earth ,puts 110% into everything he does and no matter where you are he always has time to spit a rhyme in your ear.

So if your in Toronto on Dec 5th check him out @ Flim lounge this is a party that can not be missed.
