Tell us about yourself.
I’m a solo deejay. I’ve been deejaying for 11 years now, since age nine. I love to write, rap and perform music.
How would your classify your craft or specialty?
There is no box to put me in. The only music I don’t play or haven’t played is country [music] in the club. Everything else, I play.
Tell us something that not many people know about you.
If I wasn’t deejaying, I would be a kindergarten teacher. I love to teach and I love small children. I went to school for early childhood education, but I was flunking out [of] classes because I was busy trying to deejay. Teaching was my passion but the money in deejaying certainly wasn’t a deterrence.
What is your dream car?
Aston Martin
