I’m Benton Jeter, but most people know me as DJ Easy B. No bragging, but I know how to take care of serious business on the turntables where I live in Atlanta and across the nation.Now I’ve produced a documentary film, “Muzik Luvahaz,” because I’m sick and tired of the exploitation of rap and hip hop music. I know there are people, like me, who are true hip hop lovers aka, luvahaz, who are upset with the same old negative rap and hip hop music.I’m inviting you to watch my documentary that shows how the hip hop culture and community are suffering because of so many negative images coming from rap music – drugs and violence against women and the community, to name a few things.The purpose of “Muzik Luvahaz,” filmed across New York City, including the Bronx, Manhattan and Brooklyn, is to bring awareness to various areas of hip hop, such as its rich positive history.This is a true labor of love – considering I’ve been working on this project for two years, determined to get my message out. I took my own money to finance this documentary because that’s how much I believe in it.
