If there is something I missed, drop a comment below. I am especially uncertain about which Dirtstyle records were produced (or co-produced) by MMM.

Thanks !heals! !!

cool

Bitch it's curtains cuz all that skratching is making me ITCH!!!..

I guess from now on,he's the main reason for me to buy any Beastie Boys Cd.They always been dope to me,but now with him,they ill as fuck.Mike is the poster boy to show those corny ass mixtape DJ's who yell through their wack mixtapes to say fuck you all,you piece of sperm tissues.I'm sick of those fuckers claiming the title of a DJ and not dudes like Mike,or any other real turntablist.Fuck'em rot in hell,no ressurection for them,drown in the lake of fire,may their souls get ripped apart with the doings of Satan.

Mix master cuts faster, breakin' heads and bustin' beats. But has the mother ship arrived? This one man music machine is wanted by seventeen different space-crime organisations for polluting the system with abstract 'fuck you' messages from earth. Someone will pay... In time.

You Ruled In Jet Grind Radio!!

He worked on the soundtrack/game music for SSX Tricky video game

One critic was quoted saying. “He is arguably the most provocative and the most controversial artist since Tupac Shakur. His words are infectious. They provoke the human emotion to feel what it has never felt before.”
After serving eight years out of a ten-year sentence for the Robbery and Kidnapping of a City of Milwaukee detective’s daughter, Newt Turner has finally been freed from State prison to implement his prison-conceived ideologies and philosophies to innovate and conquer the entertainment and publishing industry. He has unselfishly opened the gates to his heart and soul so the world can graphically experience how emotional darkness transforms into redemption.
After repeated thoughts of abortion, due to societal and family pressures, his mother gave birth to him on the University of Kansas campus in Lawrence, Kansas, where she was a sophomore majoring in Psychology and Child Development. Soon after she graduated and married, they moved to Milwaukee, Wisconsin. Like most black children, he never knew or seen his father. So he looked to his mother’s husband for love and guidance. But instead, he found himself entering a world of malicious acts of child abuse. Take a second and think. Imagine being four years old, naked…crying on the kitchen floor, while a man is standing over you, beating you with an extension cord.
With the consistent mental and physical abuse by his stepfather, he found a place where he could be loved and accepted…the streets of Milwaukee. The hustlers, the winos, the pimps and the prostitutes, the drug dealers and the drug-addicted and any other lost soul that walked the ghetto…became his father…became his next direction.
Though the street life consumed most of his soul and mind, he still found time for education. Nicknamed “Braniac”, the kids in High School ridiculed and teased him for his academic progress and standing. Chess Club. Perfect attendance. Honor student. At the end of his sophomore year, he surrendered to the peer pressure and chose a new direction…crime.
From putting handguns to his victims heads, to having a girl prostituting during Summer school when he was only fourteen (just so he could get the same year Jordan’s), to hustling’ “marks” for $50.00 a ball at his neighborhood pool hall, to snatching’ purses, to knowingly selling crack on a well-known drug dealer’s corner, (which caused him to have a shotgun pressed against his forehead and be killed if he didn’t leave the block)…he did whatever was necessary to take care of himself and those he loved, and to be respected by those around him. Barely seventeen years old, he exemplified the word hustler. Whatever he thought with his mind and whatever he touched with his hands had to turn a profit.
Although he barely graduated from high school and was accepted to two different colleges, in the spring of 1994, he was arrested for the Kidnapping and the Robbery of a City of Milwaukee detective’s daughter. He adamantly feels that he could’ve beaten the case if his cousin didn’t cooperate with prosecutors. In fear that his cousin would become a State witness, he accepted a plea agreement of ten-years in prison. He served eight.
While in prison, he laid down the foundation for G’Livin’ Entertainment, an independent entertainment company that specializes in music, publishing, modeling and films. With well over 1000 written pieces of poetry and lyric sheets, not including seventeen novels and twenty screenplays and the mind of a business tyrant, he has a substantial amount of ammunition to go to war with anybody in the entertainment and publishing industries. He was quoted saying, “The world is about to witness something cruel and unusual, yet beautiful and inspiring.”
His first project, “Paroled Sinner”, is a brutally honest and emotionally shattering testament about life in hell and redemption. Paroled Sinner is scheduled to be released on February 17th, 2007, marking the 65th birthday of murdered Black Panther Party for Self-Defense Co-founder, Huey P. Newton.
From almost being an aborted fetus, to an abusive childhood, which led to a violent life of crime and his incarceration, Newt Turner has emerged from the “depths of hell” with a vision and a plan. He has used his stumbling blocks as stepping-stones. His character, his words, his love for poor people and his subject matter are emotionally infectious.
