Which is your favourite mix/genre of music?
Well, I am very diverse, I mostly do hip-hop, dance hall, Indian, afro…; basically everything…I am at liberty with music.
Is your profession well-paying?
(Hums)…Yeah, I can say so. It’s a very good career, if you know how to hustle. Many disc jockeys are out there for the fame and money, but if your passion drives you, everything else will fall in place. I have hustled a lot to make it this far. All my needs are now settled.
Are your parents/guardians proud of what you do?
I am from a Christian background, so, my mum was somehow reluctant, but my father was supportive…but I went on to pursue my dream. Currently, my whole family is very supportive.
What is the longest/shortest session of gracing the decks in an event?
My longest period was nine hours non-stop, while my shortest was one and a half hours.
Do many ladies hit on you?
(Laughs)…yes, it happens a lot, it’s obvious…
How do you deal with that?
You have to be cautious and have control. I have had issues with my past girlfriends, but am glad some understand the situation.
How affordable are your rates?
They are very cheap. (Laughs)… Very affordable, though it depends on the kind of event. I charge as less as Kshs10, 000 for some events and as much as Kshs100,000 depending on what am bringing along – the machines or other disc jockeys.
How far have you travelled courtesy of your career, both locally and internationally?
I have been to Uganda and South Africa.
Locally, I have been to Eldoret, Nakuru, Samburu and other places.
What would you advise any upcoming disk jockeys out there?
It’s all about the passion, the love of the game and the art; not the fame and money. Work on your skill, have inspiration, know your music and be patient. Deejaying is tough; you need experience and have the ability to know what the crowd wants. Patience pays.
