Cash Money is often credited with creating one of the crucial scratches of the turntable art form - the transformer scratch. The ever-self-effacing Cash Money credits another DJ, Spinbad, with the invention, but historians / trainspotters of the form say that Cash Money was the one to perfect it. His mixes graced many of Sleeping Bag Records' releases and his record with MC Marvelous (Marvin Berryman), Where's the Party At?, came out on the label in 1988. Since then he has competed internationally, and in 1988 when he won the world title, DMC then banned him from entering again, (just like they did later with Mixmaster Mike) because honestly no one else had a chance. In 1998 DMC placed him in the Hall Of Fame with the accolade of "Worlds Greatest DJ".

He is still the only DJ ever to hold all 3 major world titles at the same time, when in 1998 he won the DMC World Championships, the DMC world Supremacy and the American New Music Seminar DJ competitions. Over the years He has also worked as a producer / remixer with stars such as Snoop Dog, Q-Tip, Public Enemy and Busta Rhymes as well as topping the charts with PM Dawn in the early 90's.

Cash money is by far the best all round Hip Hop entertainer on this planet, it's a fact. His style is not Just Hip Hop, he plays Funk, Breaks, Disco, Electro, RnB, Reggae and Dancefloor Classics. Everywhere he plays promoters, DJ's and crowds alike agree, they have never seen anything like it before. He rocks everywhere he plays. When we met Fatboy Slim at the Boutique in Brighton, he bowed to Cash in respect and sighted him as one of his major inspirations next to Grandmaster Flash.
