Why this name?
Dj Sham-rock was given 2 me when I was a kid. never liked it but was stuck with it. As the game changed, it got corny(er) so i dropped the r o c k and adden pain. everybody always called me sham anyway so i eventually just stuck w/ that.
Do you play live?
I do play live but over the last couple of years i'e been getting my company together and haven't done any gigs. restructuring my camp means i have 2 record new music when company is complete u dig?

So there's no clear advantage, same rules still apply, cream rises to the top.
Would you sign a record contract with a major label?
of course. They have the resources to do everything big, but i would sign through my production co. because
