Rudy Lawrence has 1 Dj Needles concert.

Born in St. Louis, MO and raised in East St. Louis IL, James Gates aka DJ Needles aka Nodzilla actually stumbled into deejaying in 1994 by doing house parties with tapes and cds. In 1997, Needles got a job at Vintage Vinyl (St. Louis Landmark Record Store) and was surrounded by so many dope, rare and "gotta-have" records, he became a collector and began learning to mix. Shortly thereafter in 1998, Needles released his first mixtape entitled "98 Fresh Mix Tape" featuring music from Pete Rock, A Tribe Called Quest and Black Star.
