Camaican Sensation
I started spinning when I was twelve, messing around, spinning birthday parties, dances, weddings, never stopped scratching. I'm 20, spin hip hop and drum and bass, but more importantly, scratching, dubbing and beatjuggling.
Tell me about your history? How did you get where you are now?

Have you performed live in front of an audience? Any special memories?
I do live gigs when requested, I havent done as many as I used to, I love it because of those special moments when people just don't stop screaming.
