Mr 1000 performs live at Roc-D-Mic Fridays at Club Yakum in Houston, Texas, on January 2, 2015. Preserved in the Dammit Boy Productions DBTV archive, the footage documents Mr 1000 during the Club Yakum chapter of the recurring Houston independent hip-hop showcase.
The 12-minute recording documents two performances from Mr 1000. The set opens with “Magic & Candy” at 0:00, featuring C-Clain, followed by “Ready For The Funk” at approximately 6:20.
The surviving footage captures Mr 1000 performing directly on the Roc-D-Mic stage and preserves his participation in Houston’s independent live-performance circuit during this period.
Hosted by Wickett Crickett, Roc-D-Mic provided independent artists with a recurring platform to perform live in Houston. During the Club Yakum period, Dammit Boy Productions became increasingly involved with the events, with Tre Dizzle working Roc-D-Mic as a DJ in addition to participating as an artist.
Mr 1000’s appearance is part of the surviving group of DBTV recordings documenting performers who appeared on the Roc-D-Mic stage during the Club Yakum era.
This performance was filmed January 2, 2015 and originally published January 5, 2015. Other surviving DBTV recordings from the same date document Boleggz, C-Clain, Jus Kno Mac and additional performers, allowing the individual videos to collectively reconstruct portions of that night at Club Yakum.
C-Clain’s appearance on “Magic & Candy” also provides a direct connection between two artists independently documented elsewhere in the DBTV Roc-D-Mic archive.
The footage forms part of the broader DBP record of Mr 1000 and preserves an early dated example of his Houston performance history documented by Dammit Boy Productions.
Preserved through the DBTV archive, this performance documents Mr 1000, C-Clain, Wickett Crickett’s Roc-D-Mic platform, Club Yakum, and Dammit Boy Productions during an active period in Houston’s independent hip-hop scene.
Together with the other surviving January 2, 2015 recordings, the footage helps reconstruct a single Roc-D-Mic night through multiple individual performances while contributing to the larger historical record of the artists, songs, venues, events, and relationships preserved by Dammit Boy Productions.
