DamnShaq: Quality Over Quantity - Episode 66

Nov 08, 2018, 05:00 AM

On this episode I am joined by DJ, presenter and all round creative, DamnShaq, discussing everything from the pressures of being a young creative, finding his voice in the industry, how to turn things around when they don’t go your way, the importance of having a good support network and loads more

I’ve had the pleasure of being part of and seeing Shaq’s story up close and personal, from taking him under my wing at the BBC as his ‘boss’, to giving each other advice, to gassing each other up about what the future holds. This chat was personal, honest and eye-opening.
