DJ Code Money

DJ Code Money was the deejay for noted 1980s rap artist Schoolly D of Philadelphia.[1]

Their first single, "P.S.K. (What Does That Mean?)", is sometimes viewed as the first gangsta rap record.[2] The track includes hypnotic beats, rough scratching, and Schoolly's unflinching tales of the Park Side Killers: "I said 'You sucka-ass nigga, I should shoot you dead". Other singles released by the pair include "Gucci Time" (sampled by the Beastie Boys on "Time To Get Ill"[2]), "Put Your Filas On", and "Saturday Night".
