Outside of his lyrical endeavors (reaching back to high school) he has been a club DJ since 1994 and regularly tours worldwide. RasCue possesses skill - that is evident.
However skill without diversity is like sugar alone.

Listeners to Dancehall Riddims were treated to weekly doses of his rare assembly (contact Urban Umpires exclusively for archived episodes).

He has and continues to tour the world. Japan, Brazil, England, Canada, Scandinavia, the Caribbean, and a full European tour (w/ Cali Agents) are just a few of the countries in his repertoire.
In a never ending pursuit of engagement and meshing of creative process RasCue has collaborated with countless artists and DJ's. Among those are Mos Def, Mystic, Cali Agents, J-Rocc, Cut Chemist, DJ Shadow, Nu-Mark, Cool Chris, Romanowski, Z-Trip, DJ Pogo, DJ Tonk, DJ Craze, Jay-J Hernandez, DJ Spinna, Louie Vega, DJ Marky, Q-Bert, and Mix Master Mike.
