BRIEF CAREER SYNOPSIS:
It all started at a young age when a young infant barely out the womb started talking and running. A decision had to be made Football or Radio, I chose football and I was damn good at it. While in college started to figure out that I wasn't going to make it to the league and started doing college radio. I started surfing the internet found a guy named Big Bear in the radio biz. I was on him like white on rice. I called him four times a week for about two months until he talked to some of his people.
1. What was your last non-Industry job?
Man, I delivered KENTUCKY FRIED CHICKEN. I already know what you're thinking...yes, in PALMDALE, CA they deliver chicken.
2. What got you interested in Radio?
Truthfully, I knew I wasn't going to be a scientist or a doctor so I started recognizing my gifts. I could make people laugh and I talk to women. By George, I think I've got it...communications...radio.
3. Your boss and morning co-host, BIG BEAR, is a huge man but a mellow, gentleman. Ever see him just lose it?
Hell yeah! One time at a club he lost it and was forced to whoop some ass! But he was protecting a co-worker who got caught up in some drama. But that's just the kind of guy he is... cool guy, who genuinely cares about people. If NECESSARY... he can flip it on you.
4. What's your favorite part of the morning show?
I really enjoy doing show prep because I know every topic that's going on in the world.
5. Where do you see yourself in five years?
I have a weird fascination with weather so I would love to be a meteorologist. I'm going to change the game and be a hip hop weatherman. All the weathermen out there are too...uncool.
6. Who do you consider to be your mentor(s)?
I have a few from when I came into the game. I had some great people take me under their wing. J. PHILLA and JOEYBOY aka THE NUTZ out in ARIZONA. J SCRATCH, a vet in just the entertainment biz. Without a doubt, Big Bear. He is a great teacher.
7. It's midnight on SATURDAY night in OXNARD. Where do we go to find you?
In the club at CHAPTER 8 in AGOURA, CA. There are a lot of cougars, if you know what I mean.
8. In 2006, what area of your "game" do you want to improve?
I want to improve on my production skills. I think that can take me a long way.
9. If you were to leave Radio today and you could choose any other occupation, what would it be?
I would pursue being a fighter I train in Muay Thai, Kenpo and Jiu Jitsu. I would try that out before my body gives out on me.
10. You find a magic lamp and a genie grants you three wishes for your station...not you, personally. What are your three wishes?
Wish number one: Unlimited promotions budget
Wish number two: Exotic station vehicles
Wish number three: Strip Club Fridays in the Studio. Everybody is a V.I.P.Bonus Questions
