<p>A veteran DJ with close to 40 years of experience. An avid music lover since birth and collecting records since he was a toddler. Starting out at age 11, doing his first job as the house party Dj for his family and friends in the neighborhood, Prime honed his skills graduating to making mixtapes, djing school dances, even hosting his own hotel event while in high school. Developing his beat making and production skills while in college, Prime was given the opportunity not only to be the main Greek and Campus party DJ at Bowling Green State University, but to take his talents to the airwaves of primetime DJ of the campus radio station WBGU 88.1 (Power 88). After a year, he became the Urban Director for his success of turning a subpar station into a competing and rival station against commercial stations in Northwest Ohio area. Using his dorm room as a primary location, Studio B-237 (his actual room number) was launched. In that one room, he co-founded his first rap group, Black Minds of Music, which eventually recorded more than 70 songs, performing in local shows and shined as opening acts for X-Clan and Minister Louis Farrakhan over the course of his college career. PRIME continued to produce Hip Hop tracks after college, working with local artists in his hometown of Columbus, Ohio. He contributed to the fast-selling Columbus Mob album “MIDWEST FUNK SOUNDTRACK”. PRIME produced Jakk-N-Jill’s “The Chronic” and assisted production on Insane’s “Tahitian Treat” and AKA &amp; Eddie B’s “The Outro”. Tai-Pan, PRIME’s friend from college, was next to be blessed with the skills of PRIME on his first full-length album entitled “THE RISE, THE FALL, THE RISE” on Educated Records, exclusively produced by PRIME which sprung the single of the same title featuring Terri Whitlow formerly of Teen Dream. The summer of 1996, PRIME released his debut solo effort, “BUSTOWN FLAV”, a cassette EP which became the hottest collection of independently produced songs everywhere on the Columbus streets.
