In his words;

Music had always been there for me, growing up. Dad had a big stereo in the sitting room and we were always listening. Subconsciously, I kind of picked it up. In high school, I was a social prefect. My job was to make sure there was constant fun, so I wanted to do something new, fresh. I hired a DJ and it kind of blew my mind. I’d never seen a live DJ perform. I’d never seen what they do. Seeing him do it live. . .it motivated me. I had to learn how to do that. So I learned how to DJ.

From there, I got radio gigs and started doing Industry Night. Industry Night back home is a weekly event that showcases upcoming and established talent. I was the DJ for 5 years and it let me build up trust with my audience that I was good at what I was doing. Then, I started making my own records, touring, and all that.

On if DJing was a thing when he started, he said;

No. People just thought it was a hobby, like we were just people who were excited about music. They thought DJs would end up in the club and die in the club. They didn’t have any expectations. When I started as a DJ, no one thought anything. But I’ve always had different notions. I wasn’t going to be a regular DJ. I wanted to be innovative.
