''Italic text Added:

  1. 3 N' the Mornin' Part 1
  2. All Work, No Play
  3. All Screwed Up, Vol. 2

I believe All Work... and All Screwed Up, Vol. 2 are actual Screw Tapes. Am I misunderstanding the above comment? --Driscoll 00:37, 28 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

All Work, No Play 3 N' the Morning Pt. 1 & 2 All Screwed up, are all commercially released Dj Screw mixes. You can buy them at most music stores (except 3 in the morning pt 1, I haven't been able to find it for years now). 3 in the morning and all screwed up are on Bigtyme Records. I'm not sure if you can get them at the Screw shop. It's a fact that Dj Screw had made 4 CD'S... "3 N Da Mornin" and "All Work No Play". When he made 3 N Da Mornin, he made part 1, part 2, high with the blanksta, and part 2 remix. There is a 2nd " All work no play" But I don't believe he(Screw) made it. He most likely mixed the songs, but didn't put it on cd's. All those Cd's that are named above, He mixed songs on the cd's, but then some other dj's wanted to slow a song or 2 down as a tribute.

Screw's Birthday

User 66.25.188.76 added the following text to the article: "NOTE: DJ Screw was born in Smithsville, Texas

I have reverted the edit. If it's true can someone put it in properly. --Spondoolicks 22:37, 4 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]

He was born in Smithville, TX p http://www.governor.state.tx.us/divisions/music/tour/birthdays.htm

Birthdate incorrectly listed as June 27th. THAT IS NOT HIS BIRTHDATE. Please watch "Soldiers United 4 Cash" DVD and see the following link for the correct birthdate July 21. June 27th is the birthdate of another rapper from his click named JUT.

Workers at Screwed Up records have informed me that Screw's birthday was July 21st.

June 27th Mixtape Confusion

Big Moe clarifies confusion over his b-day in the DJ Screw: the Untold Story DVD. June 27th is BIG JUT's birthday and the name of one of the most well-known Screw Tapes but many people misheard this as "Big Moe." --Driscoll 00:37, 28 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]


June 27th is the birthday of D-Moe, not Big Jut, Screw, or Big Moe. If u listen to the shouts over the K-Dee "Freshest Mc" instrumental on the June 27th tape , you can hear everyone saying happy b-day to D-Moe. Big Jut was not on the June 27th tape.Djcomatoast 06:29, 26 September 2007 (UTC) —Preceding unsigned comment added by Djcomatoast 06:29, 26 September 2007 (UTC)06:13, 26 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

NPOV/References

I originally placed an {{npov}} tag on this article. I now see that the main problem is actually the lack of references, so I have replaced it with a {{unreferenced|date=August 2006}} tag.

Statements like this are obviously non-neutral however and need to be edited/removed: "rivaled if not improved upon the original songs...."

Statements like this one need to be cited: "owe much of their success to DJ Screw and give proper credit in many of their songs...." - Zepheus (ツィフィアス)

Partial Discography

How is it possible that a "partial" discography has 35 albums? Seems more like a discography than a partial one.

It's possible if you are DJ screw, there are a lot of screw tapes out there

Actually not including underground mixtapes this seems to be his full discography. Look up DJ Screw Discography and you'll get a list somewhere between 35 and 38 titles. Angrymansr 14:32, 13 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]


It's not a full discography. Look at the website of Screwed Up Records and Tapes. They sell the original, official recordings. There are more than 100 different tapes.

Codeine Reference

Slowing down the song was supposed to recreate the effect of recreationally using Promethazine with Codeine also known as "lean" or "purple drank" in Houston parlance. This statement is incorrect Dj Screw began slowing down music long before he ever used codeine recreationally and this was not part of the vision he created. He even denounces this rumor in the soilders united for cash dvd —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 72.178.131.134 (talk) 19:57, August 20, 2007 (UTC)
