I constantly grew up around music. Always exposed to every single genre of music at such a young age growing up in Southern California. My parents would take me to live concerts and they made sure that music was a strong foundation in my life.

 

In high school 95-99 they called me Radio Raheem. We didn't have a radio station or regular DJ at my school, so I walked around campus with my portable Aiwa cd/cassette player. Some teachers hated me, some loved it, but all my peers really appreciated it. Made mixtapes, cd compilations by recording songs from the radio, cassettes, records and cds that were in the house. I started diggin for records at the end of my Sophomore year. At the end of Senior year, I was DJ. It happened so naturally. I’m incredibly thankful that this art found me.
