Hey friends and family,

I wanted to share a quick update about a recent health scare. Last Monday, I may have experienced what’s called a TIA (Transient Ischemic Attack), which is like a mini-stroke. Thankfully, my scans came back clean, and the doctors now believe my symptoms were caused by stenosis in my neck and a herniated disc, likely due to years of DJing and poor posture.

I’m resting at home now and making big lifestyle changes—eating better, exercising, and staying on top of my meds and appointments. This has been a scary experience, but I’m doing my best to stay strong and take care of myself so I can be here for my family.

Thank you for all the love and support. I don’t have the energy to chat with everyone right now, but I appreciate you all and will reach out when I’m feeling better.

Praying for better days ahead!

I grew up in a household where music was always playing. On weekends, my mom would fill the house with her favorite records while cleaning—everything from Kenny G and Barbra Streisand to Boy George and George Michael.

Sharing a room with my older brother, I got my first real exposure to Hip-hop. He played everything: N.W.A., Run-D.M.C., LL Cool J—you name it. It was a constant part of my life.

As I got older, I branched out and discovered pop legends like Prince and Michael Jackson. But it wasn’t long before Hip-hop called me back. Snoop Dogg, Bone Thugs-n-Harmony, Tupac, and Biggie—these were the artists that took my love for music to another level.

It was through my cousin and my good friend Mike (pictured) that I found independent Hip-hop. They introduced me to Living Legends, Hieroglyphics, Eminem, Abstract Rude, Atmosphere, Aesop Rock, and Rawkus Records, just to name a few. That was the turning point. I dove headfirst into this world, discovering countless other incredible artists along the way.

Hip-hop became my passion, my culture, my life. As my DJ career took off, I knew I had to carry that torch, to wave the flag for Hip-hop music and urban culture wherever I went. In many ways, Hip-hop has saved my life and shaped me into the person I am today.

The culture means more to me than words can express, and I take pride in representing it every time I step behind the turntables. ✊🎧

I got my name when I was about 17. Back then, I’d stay up all night listening to music, mixing records, and making beats. I remember not going to sleep until 6 AM, only to sleep all day. That lifestyle drove my parents crazy, but I was naturally a night owl. It was my cousin Randy who eventually gave me the name, Nocturnal.

I picked up a gig tonight at ! I’ll be on deck from 8 to 11 PM, spinning feel-good Hip-hop and R&B with some vibey tracks to match. I’m truly blessed and fortunate to have good friends who look out for me. Whenever they call, I do my best to return the favor. If you’re looking for something to do this Friday night, slide through and catch the groove with your big buddy Noc!

Gotta give big love to my people and . They went above and beyond to make this TwitchCon trip one I’ll never forget. So many memories, so many inside jokes, and way too many inappropriate jokes at the most inappropriate times 😂. Merdrea and Relay are real ones, and I appreciate them so much.

They say never meet your heroes because they might disappoint you—but that wasn’t the case when meeting ! Wait, am I calling Cook my hero?! Well, he’s cool AF, that’s for sure. No doubt, he’s a top-tier streamer with content that’s a cut above the rest. If you’re not familiar with Cook, it’s time to get familiar because his streams are insanely entertaining. Big shoutout to for making the introduction!

Woke up today with my anxiety through the roof, and it quickly spiraled into a panic attack. I started feeling pretty low. Thankfully, I was able to eat some breakfast (shoutout to the wife), and after a couple of glasses of water and some deep breaths, I started to feel like myself again.

Once I got things under control, I jumped behind the decks and worked on my set for tonight. Even though I’m planning to take a step back from DJing, I still have some obligations on the calendar, and I fully intend to honor them. One of those is dropping a set at tonight for their grand opening. This event is big for the city, the culture, and the scene, and I’m honored to be part of it.
