How are things going for you recently?

Life as an artist has not been the same ever since COVID ;but I have learnt so much a long the way 

What have you been up to?

I have been working on my music and raising my young ones; so basically ADULTING

If you could go back in time, what musical era would you choose to experience? Why?

The 30’s, because the music was so raw and honest ,and I love the style of the era ,even though it was tough times they used music as a tool to speak the ugly truth and thats the blues!

Tell us a bit about the mix.

The mix is mainly focused on the afro vibrations , from the diaspora and in the continent wether its drill or dancehall or afro beat , I have also added surprise elements to create a musical mood swing

What’s your favourite track in the mix? How did you discover it?

I honestly hate this question , because I have no answer for it , but I could say don zilla and rezz surprise me with the music they create .its mind bending.

Finally, who else would you like to see in the series?

I would love to see Houdini , authentically plastic,nsazi,donzilla the whole gang.
