I want to be a DJ
 

but I have almost no clue what I need to get started, can anyone seriously give me some idea into what im getting invovled in?

uuhhh, Iont know too well, but I'd guess u'd have 2 start at partys n work ya way up. Make some mixtapes and pass em out as much as u can, get em around everywhere. If niggaz bootleg it u should be happy, cuz more niggaz;ll like it, but u gotta make em good.

well...besides whut he said^

u need turn tables..and mad shit....

umm...mix shit...send some to like....iono..."real" rappers and shit..

yea you deff need the following...

Microphones
Amps
Speakers
ATLEAST 2 turn tables - to switch between records
Records {mostly old school to mix in with new school lyrics}
Mixing software {to edit shit for computer}

dude, you must have some crazy dough...this shit listed
above is needed if your serious, and it only gets more
expensive...look to spend no less than 1500 for all that
above on GOOD equipment :)

Bootleg fruity loops and pose your pants off.
