Skribble forever changed the way that DJs are perceivedÑhe raised the bar with his music, his hustle and larger than life personality. He is one of the first DJs that made everyone stand up and take notice that the person playing the records could be as big a celebrity as the musicians themselves. When you look at SkibbleÕs credits you wonder if there is anything left for him to do. As a member of the Young Black Teenagers he created a sound that defined the times. As a solo artist he has spun with the forefathers of hip-hopÑGrandmaster Flash for oneÑto one of the best MCs to have ever livedÑthe Notorious B.I.G. He kept New York moving as a hip-hop DJ on the top urban station (Hot 97.1), as well as spinning house on KTU. And his face was universally recognized from the half dozen MTV shows he hosted (The Grind, Spring Break, SisqoÕs Shakedown). ItÕs amazing he still found time to perform 200 plus live shows a year. Though the music sounds a little different today, Skribble is still one of the most demanded DJs out there. HeÕs taken his sound to a new level, doing gigs with Dave Navarro of JaneÕs Addiction fame. Their show is a rock-electro live remix experience that showcases the genius of each of their talents. With SkribbleÕs mad skills on the turntables, and DaveÕs notorious guitar riffs the two play off each other to create a unique experience with every gig. As a solo artist, Skribble remains one of the most captivating DJs to watch and listen to. He has taken his own musical journey through hip-hop, into house and come back full circle to hip-hop. His skills have only grown as his musical tastes have changed. His ability to combine new sounds into his already established repertoire have made his shows both innovative and familiarÑitÕs the Skribble everyone knows and loves, with a little extra on top.
