What was your favourite hobby/present as a kid?

How did you get into DJing/presenting?
Been DJing as long as I can remember, since I was 12.

Who/what have been your biggest influence(s)?
Michael Jackson, Shortee Blitz, Fonti, Trevor Nelson

What have been your biggest achievements?
- Head of Warner Music Street Team, Kent Division (first street team in Kent ever)
- Have also played at artist's after parties for the likes of Boyz II Men and Jon B.
- Played across Europe from Bristol to Belfast, and Glasgow to Barcelona.

Name a tune that you love or inspired you
Lady - D'Angelo.
This made me realise how much I really loved RnB. The soul and emotion in this record is like no other.

What is your favourite lyric?
Brown Sugar - D'Angelo. The whole song is just sick. D'Angelo is the Don man!!!! You can't test him.

What's your dream gig or collaboration?
On a Beach in Brazil or maybe Puerto Rico with thousands of peeps that really know their RnB and hip hop. It don't get no better than that!

What are your interests / hobbies outside of music?
Football, Man Utd baby! The title is ours next year! And WWE, it's always fun watching a man get beat down with a chair!! 

What three rules do you live your life by?
Family First
Get Money & Don't Stop!! 

What's your weakness?
Nando's 

You're on your way home from a rave and you're starving, there's a kebab shop or a bagel shop, which one do you go to?
Kebab shop easily! But forget that dirty doner meat. It's straight shish kebab or chicken for me!!! 

If God was a DJ, who'd it be?
Jazzy Jeff. The man is a genius when it comes to blessing the decks! 

What's your favourite piece of clothing and why?
It's got to be trainer's...I used to be a big trainer head but calmed down massively in the last couple years. Nowadays, I just kinda stick to the same selection of trainers - stan smiths, air force ones, converse all stars, and superstars.... and when they get a little worn out or scuffed, I bag a new pair (don't get it twisted, I'm not rich, but dirty trainers is a no no)

If you weren't a DJ / Presenter, what would you be?
Actor. I was really good at acting at school, I nearly went stage school, but my parents couldn't afford it!
