DJ X-Rated

DJ X-Rated: The 2 x U.K. Dmc DJ Battle Champion.

DJ X-Rated is a name synonymous with producing good music & impeccable turntable skills that always brings a smile to the faces of fans and promoters alike as they remember genius performances.


From the early age of 10 years old DJ X-Rated was always messing around with his Mother’s record player. After being given her record collection he made his own cassette mix tapes, by “pause mixing” on old tape cassettes. His selections consisted of Funk, Soul, Latin & Motown & later Hip Hop. With his pocket money he went on to buy old turntables & records at car boot sales & record shops.


After releasing his first vinyl record on his own label (Strictly Beats Recordings) in 2003 he was immediately picked up by Bomb Hip Hop Records out of San Francisco and was asked to appear on the legendary global release of the “Return of the DJ” series along side the likes of Mixmaster Mike (Beastie Boys) & the infamous DJ Q-Bert. Musical appearances on M.T.V’s “Pimp My Ride” & Channel 4 television & Sky T.V where to follow.


Bomb Hip Hop Records (San Francisco) publish DJ X-Rated’s debut solo album “Get Live Get Down” with great success. The album features i artists such as Blak Twang & U.K Hip Hop Icon Blade (of Mark B & Blade). Going from strength to strength he soon found himself travelling Europe & the U.S supporting acts such as Run Dmc, Wu-Tang Clan, Gang Starr & Jeru Da Damager to mention but a few.
