In this episode of the Long Island Music & Entertainment Hall of Fame Podcast, host Tom Needham sits down with DJ Johnny “Juice” Rosado — the legendary turntablist for Public Enemy, award-winning producer, filmmaker, and Hall of Fame Board Member. A defining figure in hip-hop’s evolution, Johnny Juice has spent decades advancing the art of turntablism while preserving the culture’s authentic roots.

Tom and Johnny discuss his newly expanded role as Public Enemy’s official DJ, tracing his long history with the group and how his creative vision continues to shape their sound. They also dive into his acclaimed documentary, Bronx Boys: The Evolution of B-Boy Culture, which recently won the Audience Award for Best Short Film at the Long Island Music & Entertainment Hall of Fame’s inaugural Music Documentary Film Festival. Through the film, Johnny explores the origins of hip-hop’s dance element and celebrates the pioneers who helped build a global movement.

This engaging conversation offers a rare look at hip-hop’s past, present, and future — from the Bronx streets to international concert stages — through the eyes of one of its most passionate historians and innovators.
