Please excuse my blatantly rude level of braggadocio...lol!!! I know, I know...I'm either brain dead or partially retarded...just not sure which 1 yet...Mr. 40. Watt signing off!!!

De-U Records, Inc.

Google or Wikipedia us...

De-U Records was formed late in the year 1999 by our CEO & my father David Printis Sr. & his brother & VP Steven Printis. We got off to an exceptional start immediately with our first Hip-Hop project receiveing radio play, our first gospel artist getting inducted into the Gospel Hall of Fame, & our first kids educational product recieving national press all before 2003. In the first two years alone we had already managed to get The F.A.M.'s "Da Realist" played on WPGC's DC Home Jamz segment & the original "Multiplication Hip-Hop" featured on BET Nightly News. Since 1999 the majority of our success has come from our hip-hop dept./street team, children's dept., & our gospel department. As of late alot of satellite, mixtape, internet, & radio DJ's have been giving De-U's rappers alot of attention. E One Letter, De-U.c.e. Double, & MLG's solo music in particular has recieved alot of love lately. WPGC 95.5 debuted E One Letter & my solo singles this summer. The track "Sexy Lady" by myself De-U.c.e. Double is on "Check My Global Stats Vol.7: Hosted by Slim Thug". DNA & DJ Drama's Gangsta Grillz mixtape "Motion Picture Sh*t Vol.3: Street Kings" features E One Letter's "Go Get It Boy" off his "You Talk It I Walk It" debut EP as well. Both mixtapes are available in stores & online right now!!! E & myself were also featured on Comcast Cable all summer long on a 30 minute show for CTV called "It's About Time" along side elements of "The Epitome Band & Show". As for future plans stay tuned for my new solo offering "40. Watt The Mixtape" & E's "Now Or Never" mixtape. They'll both be coming to a parking lot or street corner near you in the 1st quarter of 2009...remember U've been warned!!!

Download Mixtape | Provided by DatPiff.com

The Money Federation b.k.a. Moola Fedi are da kings of "unscripted" music. Moola fedi is comprised of 2 Co-CEO's Dime$ & Q-Money. These 2 strictly represent DC & PG how it used 2 be & aren't too fond of da term "DMV" dat's being used now instead of DC. Q-Money is da muscle & Dime$ is da brains behind their operation. Unlike alotta fluke new rappers out now days these dudes lyric's represent their actual lives & dey know how 2 create their own internet buzz. Most rappers say they're real niggaz & dat dey did everything on their own but 4 deez 2...dat's a gross understatement. For an unsigned group their daily, weekly, & all time myspace plays & views are sick!!! No cheat codes or paid promotional services over here homie just hard work. Da only other artists dat get close 2 as much attention as them on da space are da 1's dat have major label deals. Check U're friend requests myspace addicts because The Arrival is now officially on dat piff. My niggaz literally gotta lotta money in their federation & 1000's of tracks on deck in da Moola Fedi HQ vaults so if U don't know bout these dudes yet don't worry...U will real soon!!!

Dancehall Thursday's @ Almaz

If U're a regular on my blog U may have already seen this flier before but it isn't a re-post it's just an upadate. Just letting all my Reggae heads like my cousin's MLG & Fetima know my nigg Spyda The DJ's Dancehall Thursday's has moved from Duke's City to Almaz...don't worry it's still on U Street. Oh & speaking of U Street...stay tuned my DC Hip-Hop heads!!!

Dis iz "Bar Nun" some "Pure" Bushit...

I was about to get on the Metro a couple weeks back when I saw Ft. Wash femcee Lady Lethal. We got to talking and she told me that she had heard club Pure (aka The Bar Nun) on U street's open mic night had been shut down (hopefully only temporarily!). They mentioned this club's open mic in Billboard as one of the top spots in the DC Hip Hop scene just this spring...& just a couple months later it no longer exists. This is a major blow slim!!! I love to perform especially with a live band so that shit used to make my monday nights. Oh well...I guess it's back to The Legend on tuesdays wit Dre & The Martini's by the studio on mondays with DJ Rico again. At 1st I wasn't gonna post this Youtube joint of me performing in the club but now it may end up becoming rare footage you never know...lol!!! The video's quality is horrible in my opinion it's a little "underground" to say the least but according to ya'll we're "underground rappers" so I guess I'm overdue for some unprofessional shit huh...enjoy!!!

Mike Jones & Lil' Wayne bite'n DC Hip Hop???

My nigga Dime$ of Moola Fedi was searching Rap sites when he bumped into a song that sounded strangely similar to E One Letter's single joint called "Go Get It Boy". The words & flow pattern on the hook are damn near identical. De-U Records has sold 1000's of CD's all over the country...even in other Continents & the mixtape that E's "Go Get It Boy" is on was hosted by DNA & DJ Drama. Shit...they've been black marketing our "Multiplication Hip-Hop" CD right here in DC for several years so I definitely wouldn't put it past Mike Jones to be jockin' DC in the mist of his fading career & DMV's come up. Me personally I'm already assuming he's guilty until proven innocent but listen to the hook & let me know what you think.

Wanna Make $100k A Year???

I'm not going to write a long drawn out explaination for the title above or for the Youtube footage below. Just trust & believe that I'm not joke'n, fake'n, or just being a bama try'n to create some hype or buzz. This is a serious job opportunity for professional salesman & street hustlers a like. I gotta six month old daughter myself so trust me I know it's hard out here. That's why I'm doing my part to spread the word & the wealth during these tough times. I'm an extremely giving person who does unto others as I would have them do unto me instead of trying to be off the swindles 24/7. You can read this & take it as a joke if you want...makes no difference to me. Just do me one favor pimp...this time next year remember that De-U.c.e. Double tried to help you get your little pieces of paper together during this so called recession. You can lead a horse to water but you can't make him drink...ya digg!!!

"Go Get It Boy" - The Video!!!

After a long wait & a lotta hard work the "Go Get It Boy" video is finally completed!!! E One Letter's debut solo single has come a long ways since the day it was created by him & ZO using only the MPC, Motif, & an old De-U sample. We recorded, mixed, & mastered E's single at my old college Omega Studios' school...wut up Priest!!! It started out as just an infectious local DC/PG club banger off of his debut solo EP called "You Talk It I walk It" which was released in late 2007. From then to now this song has been featured on a DNA & DJ Drama Gangsta Grillz mixtape, played on several local/national radio stations, & it was on Comacast cable's CTV every wednesday all summer long accompanied by elements of The Epitome Band. Now that all editing for the final version of the video is completed the "Go Get It Boy" movement has officially begun so just remember you heard it here first!!! E One Letter's "Go Get It Boy" is much more than just merely a hype club song with a catchy hook...it's a multicultural anthem!!! This video is for all people make'n it happen instead of sitting back fake'n & yappin'!!! This version of E's video is just for blog responses only. To see the high quality version of this visit the De-U Records, or Mr. 40. Watt Youtube pages but 4 now...enjoy!!!

This song is from my nigga 4 life...the one they call Blessed!!! He's one of the few people on this planet who knows our ancestor's past as good as I do, & another one of my daughter's many godfathers...lmao!!!

De-U on News Channel 8...

Here's yet another Youtube throwback De-U video I found from way back in 2003. This is probably one the best interviews of the hundreds we've been in over the past couple years because the info is coming straight from the horse's mouth instead of the sly fox's ass...lmfao!!! 2003 was a real popular year for De-U Records as far as national & local press goes. Back then we didn't have any publicists, managers, agents, or promoters & guess what...we still don't. If you know any good people tell em' to holla at ya boy...lol!!! Seriously though we do want some professional representation we're not against it at all, we just can't seem to find anybody who can do any better for us than what we've already accomplished for our damn selves. They say people aren't allowed meetings with major labels without any professional representation...I say some people just aren't trying hard enough...ya digg!!!

Feel Nice @ Duke's City

Here's another event my big homie Spyda The DJ put me on too. He's a "go get it boy" he don't need no help promoting...but I always show love to my nigga's events on my blog. Spyda stays on his grind harder then alot of you so called rappers do, but don't take my word for it ask DJ Alizay or Rane about him & see what they tell you. This event will be Friday night at Duke's city right down the street from Pure & Republic Gardens on U street. If it's anything in the DMV within the Reggae, Dancehall, or Soca club scene & my nigga Spyda is involved with it...it's gotta be official trust, so just remember you heard it here first.

MLG - Bad Bones

This is a free download from my big cousin MLG the 3rd member of The F.A.M. a group wit myself De-U.c.e. Double & E One Letter. He's yet another De-U Records artist who's sold 1000's of CD's by himself wit no help n da streets of DC, PG, & VA. He also helped 2 make & sell da original "Multiplication Hip-Hop"...dis Bad Bones joint he got cranks & it's a classic!!! It's 1 of da tracks 2 be featured on my next release "De-U.c.e. Double presents: 40. Watt The Mixtape" dropping between late 08 & early 09, which DJ Heat will host if all goes as planned. Just so U know...& trust me 100% on dis...MLG's not tryin' 2 keep it "gangsta" on dis track & definitely not wit his individual rap style. ML has done a whole lot in his lifetime good n bad street n business wise dat most only pretend 2 do. Honestly 95% of da time he chooses not 2 rap about his street past. Dis song is true art & a musical statement bout an incident way back when dat bothered him 2 da point he felt he needed 2 get it off of his chest through music instead of violence...enjoy!!!

BET News Interviews De-U Records...

This is yet another throwback De-U Records Youtube joint. This is from way back in 2001 before it was acceptable to show local luv to DC rappers & producers...way before ya'll were screaming DMV every two seconds like it's a real place on the map or something. Back then niggaz called it what it really is...DC!!! The DMV is a fictional place that only exists in the minds of DC, PG, & Mo Co. natives. Don't get me wrong I understand the connection between the areas & this so called "movement" more than you realize...shit I've made thousands of legal dollars for myself & De-U Records in the D, the M, & the V...have you? My appologies I seem to have got a little off the subject at hand. I'll go into detail alot more on this issue in future blog posts, but for now just watch the damn video you bamas!!!

Def Jam & De-U Records...

Here's some more throwback De-U Records Youtube footage for all you video bloggers. This is from back when the Hip Hop Summit came to Washington, DC in 2007. Yeah yeah yeah...I know this joint is old as hell but hey this blog isn't so fuck it...sue me. This was the second time De-U Records got a chance to chop it up with the Def Jam founder Russell Simmons. He's considered a legend in the international Hip-Hop community but in person he's just a really down to earth dude. Everybody who's anybody in the DMV making major music moves knows what it is with De-U, but in case U didn't I just officially stamped it for you...We do this shit!!!
