I edited my profile with Thomas’ Myspace Editor V3.6 !
My very first demo track “Represent To The Fullest” Cuts By DJ Shortie Blitz & Produced by Def G(Soliheen) was entered into Radio1’s competition “Battle Of The Demos” on Tim Westwood’s show. Two demo’s up against each other, the public phoned in to vote a winner. I went on to win this competition for weeks running thus cementing my arrival to the HipHop scene in the UK.A year later I followed it up with “Life Is Hectic” ft Mpho Skeef Produced by Def G(Soliheen) which was on the Echoes Magazine compilation album “HomeGrown” featuring the very best UK tracks released that year. ____________________________________________________________ ____________________________________________________________ ____________________________________________________________ ____________________________________________________________ 1998 as a group (Chris Smoove & Prestige) together setup an independent label Social Misfits Recordings and secured a distribution del with BMG.
