11. DJ Clue
DJ Clue changed the mixtape medium forever with his mid-'90s releases, which emphasized breaking new, exclusive music instead of showcasing mixing and scratching skills, as the first wave of tapes did. He was one of the first mixtape DJs to graduate to major-label albums; his 1998 debut, The Professional, went platinum. Later, his label, Desert Storm Entertainment, broke the careers of Joe Budden and Fabolous. And through it all, he's been a mainstay on NYC's radio-waves and club circuit.
