hails
from
a
city
that
care
forgot
long
ago,

is
the

In

80's
when

around
12
years

had
his
attention
with
mix
shows
playing
the
hottest
music
out
at
the
time
and
mixing
it
all
together.
He
spent
many
late
nights
recording
to

the
mixes
of
local
DJ's
like

1987,
he
began
to
learn

to
mix
like
the
DJ's
he

on

One
year
later
at
the
age
of
17,
his
tapes
were
a
hit
among
all
his
friends
in
his
neighborhood.

of
those
hot
mix
tape's.

him
learn
to
perfect
his
mixing
skills.

for
the
next
4
