Influence.......I used to love listening to clashes on cassettes back in the day Killamanjaro was my sound for that;. But juggling wise, Stone Love with Rory was so sick especially on the bus from school....mad vybz!

Career Bio..........It all started in a restaurant in Toronto where I worked, we always had organized clashes after work to the point where we realized that there was talent amongst us.  So a guy decided he wanted to promote parties and another guy and myself wanted to DJ.....we formed a sound called “Tropical Vybz”.  I was the main DJ the other guy handled the microphone and it just took off from there in 2005. 

Most memorable moment....It was my first party and I had never used CD turntables in my life, .so I had to learn quickly before my set started.  I reached the club after 12, so I was already late and the DJ playing decided to play a ‘kill the party’ song before my set which made me mad.  It felt like sabotage so I took the mic, put in my CD, looked in the crowd, and said, “.who God bless”, the crowd shouted, “no man curse”.  Then I pressed play.......it was elephant man’s “you too bad mind” the place went in a frenzy.................

Most embarrassing moment........... Playing at a Club where the DJ booth was so dark...that all we had to use candles and cell phone lights and realizing that the CD turntables we were working with did the opposite of what we were used to....................... Crazy...............

What I really love........is a DJ who surprises and teases the crowd!
