During his career he has won a DMC DJ of the Year award in the Scratch DJ category (2001), and was one of 6 nominees for best UK hip-hop DJ in the UK Hip-Hop Awards. He has also been nominated by Q magazine as one of the ‘Ten DJs To See Before You Die’, has released a series of mix-tapes and has toured the globe with the likes of Goldie and the Scratch Perverts.

He is currently the hip-hop correspondent for Sleaze Nation, The Face, and IDJ magazines, and also writes the DJ page for Hip Hop Connection magazine.
