There was a time not too long ago where people weren’t checking for Buffalo when it came to hip hop. Still, our next guest DJ Shay was grinding his way through and is the man that is responsible for helping put it on the map.
He started DJ’ing when he was just 10 years old and played gigs all throughout his childhood. After he came of age he started making beats as well and dove into that world along with DJ’ing. Eventually, he founded Buff City Records and became involved in every aspect of the music business from signing artists, managing doing shows, etc. During that time he got introduced to a young and hungry Benny The Butcher and started working with him. After he saw how talented he was he decided to go all in on helping him (and eventually Conway and Westside Gunn) and do whatever he could do to help them in their career.
