DJ YRS Jerzy has been on his grind building up his name, dropping mixtapes and helping independent artists get shine. Killing the internet with his current series “Jerzy’s Evolution” and the most recent that was hosted by SKE Records Co-CEO Q The Question that gained a huge online presence, it is now official that DJ YRS Jerzy has now joined the SKE Records movement.
SKE Co-CEO Q The Question speaks on why him and Trel Mack added DJ YRS Jerzy to the team.
“The SKE Records brand is growing in the industry and amongst music fans, as a indie label on the rise it’s only right to strengthen your team. Me and Jerzy was in talks for a few months, as I was connected with him through the popular music publication?hip-hopvibe.com. I saw his grind and it is always good to add someone to your team that’s young and hungry. Trel Mack saw his grind as well, as he showed his value and worth for the label lending us hand in Trel Mack’s “Inspired By Greatness” EP and he just has the IT Factor.”
DJ YRS Jerzy will be one of the promotional directors for the label along with DJ A-Yo! who handles promotions for SKE in Spain and most of Europe. Due to him and Q The Question’s international ties in Nigeria, Ghana,? Spain, Dominican Republic, France & many countries in Europe, this will only take SKE Records to the next level to become a worldwide brand.

Read the entire interview below:
Where did the concept of?Jerzy?s Evolution?come from??(Laughs). There really is no concept, I just wanted to find an avenue to bring the rap game together and I have done that by having various figures in hip hop to host these mixtapes.
Somewhere in the back of your mind, were you thinking of all that DJ Drama contributed to the mixtape game??Not really. I wanted to do my own thing and see how big it would become.
So far, are you pleased with how well the first?Jerzy?s Evolution?did??Yeah, I feel like me and Q the Question took the game over with this one. We dropped it on Hip Hop Vibe, so you know a lot of these other websites started copying it (laughs).
What was it like working with Q the Question??It was dope, we had fun doing this project.
Were you surprised by the energy he brought to the tape??Yeah, it was crazy, I didn?t know he was going to go in like that. Having Q the Question do this was a great way to start the series off.
Can you talk about the upcoming?Talented Minds?series you have with Q the Question??Right now, we are accepting slots for the mixtape, but we are in the development stages. Given the feedback we got off the?Jerzy?s Evolution?tape, I feel this one will be even bigger and we have another separate series also in the works.
What should fans expect on these upcoming mixtapes??You can expect it to be everywhere, these mixtapes are full of good music and have strong promotion behind it.
So far, how would you rate 2013 on a scale of one to ten??I?d rate it a twenty (laughs). Everything is taken off.
Once again, give us your Facebook and Twitter???Facebook is ?DJ YRS Jerzy? and Twitter is?@IAmDJYRSJerzy.
