Robert Earl Davis, Jr. (July 20, 1971 – November 16, 2000), better known by his stage name DJ Screw, was an American hip hopDJ who was based in Houston, Texas. He was known as a central figure in the Houston hip hop community and was the creator of the now-famous chopped and screwed DJ technique. This creation led to his nickname of "The Originator".
Davis was recognized for his various mixtapes and albums mostly on a regional level, until after his death. His legacy was discovered by a wider audience when Houston hip-hop began reaching a national audience in 2005.
Early life
DJ Screw was born in Smithville, Texas. His father, Robert Earl Davis Sr., was a long-haul truck driver based in Houston. His mother Ida May Davis (who had a young daughter from a previous marriage), came to the area to be with her mother when her son was born in 1971. She returned to Houston, but the marriage was floundering; soon it would be over, and she and her kids moved to Los Angeles for a couple of years, then back to Houston, and returned to Smithville in 1980 when Davis was age nine.
[Lil Keke:] I'm draped up and dripped out Know what I'm talkin' 'bout Three in the mornin, gettin' the gat out the stash spot Fire up a fat sweet Turnin' on the bulb lights Hand on the wood grain Ass on the tight white I'm showin' naked butt in the great state of Texas Home of the playas, so it never be no plexin' So long we've been waitin' Never ever hatin' In Houston we Elbows, In Cali they Daytons So 1996 you hoes better duck Because the world gone drip candy and be all Screwed Up Just pop in your grey cassette Turn up your freakin' deck Lend me your ear because the SOUTHSIDE finna wreck Down here we smoke tree Then let the world see true hidden talent like Screw and Lil Keke Ain't no love for hatas and you bustin dick suckas On the south side we stay paid MuthaFucka! [Pocket Full of Stones - by UGK is in the background mix] "I got a pocket fulla stones" [DJ Screw:] Lil Keke gone and tell 'em what time it is... [Lil Keke:] It's time to lay 'em down like a fresh set of dominoes To all the playas, all the pimps, all the bitches, and all the hoes Who's the man, who's the boss Who's the nigga that payed the cost I really don't give a damn cause I ain't the one who gonna take the Loss Grippin a grand up in the slant workin' the wood It's understood, Flippin these fo's and slammin these doors, Pullin' these girls, and wearing these clothes Who in the the hell was able to tell the southside they had to chill From hittin' that boulevard "con" belts and buckles, woman and grill I'm poppin that trunk and smokin that skunk and pulling off candy red Sittin on buck, not givin' a f**** and able to turn a head Somethin' serious when I let go cause I got a way with words I'm able to clown when using a noun to take the place of verbs My lyrics go together like a pair of socks and shoes My flow is slow because it's bolted down by DJ Screw Take it from me, the boy Lil Ke, the H- The A- the R- and D Menace to society Born and raised to be a G I grabs the "phone" go on and on Two or three songs I won't postpone Cause these lyrics comin' the very top of my dome So many ways it pays If you can flip the script by moving your tongue And take a dose and listen close, promise that you'll be sprung Jackers and hustlers, players and macks Foreign doors and Cadillacs Syrup codine that makes you lean and killer sweets rolled out the sack All these things remain the same because I'm so able to win,
