You do hip hop radio in Winnipeg. Give me the details and expand on your experience?

Over the years the show has evolved in different ways. I started with a 5 dj show. It all boiled down to me after a while. Since about 2001 I've been going solo. I used to only play Turntablism. Now I play anything - but 95% is hip hop related. Recently I've done interviews with the likes of Immortal Technique and O.C., and I plan to continue interviewing more. It's my favorite time to play records - I play what I want - so its real dope for me.

What do you do when you are not making hip hop?

I work at the Graffiti Gallery where I teach kids how to scratch and run the computer network. We run a beginners and advanced program for scratching. I'm also working on finishing my degree in computer science.

What is your favorite hip hop experience?

- Jamming with A-track
- Talking to Chuck D briefly
- Chillin with the X-Men
- Meeting Talib Kweli, Shabbam Sadeeq and Mos Def
- Talking with Smif N Wesson
- Too many to name them all

What are you currently working on?

Currently working on my solo EP - keep your ears open.
