Dit keer geen foto modellen die je uit moet leggen dat een headphone plug in een mixer moet en niet in de slot in van een cd speler, geen strakke zonnebank gebruinde lijfjes, geen half naakte lichamen.... maar wel een vrouw.

Kuttin Kandi also appears in Much Music’s Busta Rhymes Special Edition. Kandi travels all around the world performing with high-profiled artists such as Jay-Z, LL Cool J, Mya, and BlackStar just to name a few.
In addition to all of this work, she voluntarily works with organizations such as Gabriela Network and FAHSI. Kandi is also a spoken word poet. From modeling for Starter clothing, shooting commercials for BET’s Stop The Violence campaigns to writing cover stories for YRB Magazine, DJ Kuttin Kandi has proven she is a force that cannot be stopped.


"Being a turntablist/battle DJ on vinyl and on the 1200's has been real memorable for me. However, the world is evolving, music is evolving, just as the turntable as evolved throughout the years. I use DENON's CD turntables because it's made me see how far music can go and how far a turntablist like myself can evolve. No other CD turntable has been able to convince me that it's time to kick it with the new era and next level of djing.
DENON's DN S3500's are up to par and have pure quality. With these CD turntables having the ability to make a DJ feel like they're still touching vinyl without any delays, they are showing all DJ's that still care about the feel of music underneath your tips, that you're not just a push button DJ. The feel of their mixer is superb. The Denon DN-X300 fader is battle quality and keeps me wanting to keep up with my skratching. With me practicing my CD spins, skratches, mixes and juggles, along with the dope sampling, looping features in no time i can start showing the next wave of competing with DENON."

Ik zou exact hetzelfde zeggen over een Numark CDX/HDX en dat zelfs zonder dik betaald sponsor contract, eerder omdat dat pas echt een vinyl feeling cd player is. Maar ach dat zal wel vrouwen logica zijn. ;-) (en voor ik weer iedereen over me heen krijg... de S3500 is een geweldige speler maar het is geen true vinyl feeling speler)
