 The Infamous Mad Linx has been making noise on the radio since 1994. Believing that you should always strive to become better, Mad Linx has never stopped his quest to be the best.
The Infamous Mad Linx's radio career began at WMNF community radio. From there Linx expanded his radio presence to WTMP in 1997. In 1998, he graduated to Mix-show director. In 2002, Mad Linx became the afternoon drive jock for WTMP Hot 96.1 FM. Be assured that this is not the final stop on what will ultimately be a very successful career.
Mad Linx loves to rock a party, and he has done it around the globe. Never wanting to be just a "hot local DJ," Linx turned his attention to the world, embarking on several European tours throughout his career.
Always looking to expand on his talent, Mad Linx had a stellar year in 2002. Mad Linx became "The Official EA Sports DJ." Not willing to stop there, Linx became national recording artist Angie Martinez's Tour DJ. In 2003, Mad Linx became "The Official Adidas Basketball DJ" and joined Tampa's #1 Radio Station, WLLD Wild 98.7 FM. "I'm finally at home at a place that will showcase my talents, and that will enable me to grow more than ever."
Now, Mad Linx has ventured onto the next phase of his career. 2004 was the year that Linx has not only been heard, but seen as well. Black Entertainment Television took notice of Linx's strong personality and on-screen presence. Last year was a big one for Mad Linx on national television including the following: featured DJ on BET's Rap City for 2 more episodes, Spring Bling concert events DJ, 2 episodes of Access Granted, and in a major move, BET has chosen Linx to be the substitute host…yes, HOST, of the popular show Rap City. Adding to that fire, Linx was named the host for the Rap City Top 10 Countdown airing every Saturday from 12:30p-1:30p during the BET Black College Tour.
Elevating his career to the next level in 2005, this year Black Entertainment Television has named Mad Linx the new host of the Rap City airing every weekday from 4-6pm Eastern Standard Time. This major move is a credit to the hard work and perseverance that Linx has put into establishing himself in the entertainment industry. Rap City is currently seen in 79 million homes daily and is the one of the top rated shows on BET. In addition to this Linx continues to be on the entertainment scene through various national touring dates.
Stay Tuned, it is only the beginning of 2005; you won't believe what happens next!!!!!!!!!
Business:
Started Tactics & Methods in 1998. The company's divisions include: marketing and promotions, record pool, consulting and DJ services. "If you have no Tactics & Methods in life, you will never be successful."
What It's About:
"Being a DJ is a privilege that should never be taken for granted. We are messengers of the music. My mission is to take it back to the essence, where the DJ was the most prominent part of the Hip Hop puzzle. It was the DJ, not radio, not corporate figures far removed from the culture, it was the DJ that broke the music and we made everyone crossover to us. I'm here to keep it that way."
