Just like any kid with big dreams, I had my sights set on joining a cool profession. And let’s be real, growing up, we didn’t have Netflix or endless options for entertainment. So, radio? That was my jam! It became my escape, and before I knew it, I was hooked – not just on listening, but on the art of crafting a show. The planning, the precision, the pure magic of it all? Yeah, that’s where my love for radio really sparked.
Now, I’m not one for the spotlight or fame. I believe in letting my work speak for itself – creating moments on-air that make people feel something. That’s what drives me every single time I step into the studio.
So, why Da Problem Child? Was I a rebel growing up? Ehehehe, not quite! When I started out in radio, I went by my real name, Steve. But when I made my grand return, I was handed the responsibility of hosting The Most Wanted Xtra. And, let’s face it, “Steve” didn’t exactly scream radio energy. The name Problem Child had already started making waves on The Evening Switch, thanks to the crazy vibes we brought to the show. I was a ‘problem on air,’ in the best possible way. So, Da Problem Child it was!
When I’m not raising hell on-air, I’m pretty chill – cool, calm, and lately, a little more collected. What I love most about radio is the freedom it gives me to be myself and the amazing family I get to meet on the airwaves every day. It’s a job that keeps you on your toes, constantly learning, unlearning, and growing. The daily challenges? They’re the fuel that keeps me going!
And my weekly dose of pure joy? The Most Wanted Xtra, every Friday from 2:00 PM till 5:00 PM, with the one and only Dj Modern aka the Scratch Maven! It’s not just a show; it’s my therapy session with beats. Music and I? We’re tight. Don’t believe me? Tune in and experience it yourself. Chao!
