I always loved music, but it was a passion that I had put to the side for my whole life.

I dedicated most of my life to basketball, and that was my plan until my junior year of college when I got ill and was bed-ridden for eight months. In those months, I wanted to be productive, and I taught myself how to produce music on my computer. When I went back to school, I started taking all my classes in music and DJing a lot.

I grew up drumming but had to put it on the back burner because of basketball.

Criticism doesn't affect me much now.

Basketball is my first love. If my health had permitted me, I would still be playing, but I am glad in retrospect that everything happened the way it did.

I get the same rush being on stage DJing that I did on the court.
