RADIO PRESENTER
FROM OCTOBER 2019 TO OCTOBER 2020 I RAN A RESIDENCY SLOT ON THE BBC ASIAN NETWORK, A WEEKLY RAP SHOW BRINGING THE LATEST TRACKS, GUEST MIXES, FREESTYLES AND INTERVIEWS. THIS WAS A KEY LEARNING OPPORTUNITY AND GROWTH OPPORTUNITY FOR ME TO GET BEHIND THE BOARDS AND BEHIND THE MIC TO PRODUCE AND PUT TOGETHER A WEEKLY RAP SHOW WITH MY UNIQUE ANGLE. STARTING OUT IN THE STUDIO, THE SHOW WAS MOVED TO BEING REMOTELY PUT TOGETHER DUE TO THE PANDEMIC AND WITH THAT BRINGING PERSONAL IMPACT AT HOME AS WELL A LOT OF UNKNOWNS, I WENT ON TO PRODUCE SHOWS WHICH WENT FROM STRENGTH TO STRENGTH.

DEMO
MY AMBITION IS TO DELIVER A STANDOUT SHOW WHICH WOULD BE BLENDING THE BIGGEST NAMES IN HIP HOP CULTURE FROM AROUND THE WORLD WITH THE UK RAP SCENE, CONNECTING THE DOTS BETWEEN SOUNDS AND COLLABORATIONS THAT ARE HAPPENING RIGHT NOW.
TALKING TO THOSE BIG NAME ABOUT WHAT INSPIRED THEM AND HOW THEIR STYLE DEVELOPED TO WHAT WE HEAR TODAY WHILST ALSO PUTTING ON THE NEXT BIG UP AND COMING NAMES. IT’S NOT JUST ABOUT THE ARTIST ON THE MIC BUT ALSO THE PRODUCERS AND TEAMS BEHIND THE PEOPLE.
MY INFLUENTIAL RECORDS SERIES SHOWS THE ACCESS I HAVE GAINED MYSELF, AS WELL AS THAT MIX IN WORLD RENOWNED – SWIZZ BEATS, SHENSEEA, FABOLOUS, DIZZEE THROUGH TO THE MORE HOME GROWN PS HITSQUAD, RV, GIGGS.
