With the dawning of 2010, the deejay is already experiencing brighter days with the recent announcement of his nomination for two Excellence In Music and Entertainment (EME), awards.
The Cassia Park native has been nominated in the categories of ‘Best New Artiste’, going up against the likes of G-Whizz, Ras Penco, Chase Cross, Romain Virgo, Chevaughn and Portmore Empire young guns Merital.
