About Me

I edited my profile at Freeweblayouts.net , check out these Myspace Layouts!
I was born in Melbourne, Australia, and I still live here, but I did live in Cyprus for two years. I've been involved in music since a very young age. I've been in choirs and singing competitions, Michael Jackson was my favourite growing up. Pro-wrestling has also been a life long passion of mine, for over a decade now.
I was introduced to hip-hop culture at the age of 11 and I haven't looked back since. I'm an aspiring Hip Hop emcee, deejay and producer, I've been writing rhymes since I was 12 and making beats since I was 16. I started using the name Hazard in 2002 and came up with my production company Apostroph'e Productions in 2005.So far I have made a lot of raw and un-polished recordings. However, I have completed six mixtapes, "Warning Signs Vol.1: The Acapella Experiment", "Warning Signs Vol.2: The French Connection", "DJ Hazard vs. Nas: Illmatic Chopped & Screwed", "DJ Hazard vs. Notorious B.I.G: Ready To Die Chopped & Screwed", "Warning Signs Vol.3: The Melting Pot" and "Hazard vs. The World: Royally Chopped & Screwed". I am currently working on a mixtape of some tracks and freestyles tentively titled "A Vibe Called Next".
I produced and hosted my own radio show, "Basement Soundz", now I'm a part of the Hip Hop Kick Off show with my boy J-Zon on Melbourne's SYN 907 (90.7 FM) every Wednesday from 8-10 pm, I also do album reviews for www.planeturban.com.au. I'm currently studying the Advanced Diploma of Music Industry (Technical Production).
