quotes on Funky-T:
"Funky T is een dj met talent op overschot. Niet voor niets won hij de dj contest van Laundry Day, draaide hij op Suikerock en stuurde ons een bom van een set op waarvan we niet konden stil zitten." (100 procent)
"Voor de Switch-mixtape contest kregen we 140 mixen, in de laatste selectie zat jouw mix, die zeer leuk was om te beluisteren. Laat dit een steun zijn om als dj te blijven volharden en te geloven in jezelf." (Switch - stubru)
"Verdiende winnaars van Bacardi B-Live wedstrijd" (YTC @ B-Live – Laundry Day)
