Last year I got 🥉 place in the US Finals… This year I got 🥈. We’re moving in the right direction.

Congrats to BITESIZE💖🇵🇭 for becoming back to back USA champion in the Open and pushing me to be better without even knowing it…

And also congrats to D̶J̶R̶C̶3̶ for becoming back to back USA champion in the Classic and reminding me how much more I still have to learn 🚀

BRING THAT TITLE BACK TO THE STATES 🇺🇸

In the mean time… it’s back to just trying to get better than yesterday 📈

Goal for 2027: 3x East Coast Champion & USA Champion 🫡

Last weekend at might’ve changed my life.

I used to be a bedroom DJ thinking I wasn’t good enough but now…

I realize the only thing holding me back was myself.

One more song chant in an Open Format room? ✅

Now I’m on a mission to make this happen in a Hip Hop room 🫡

Yes I know it’s VERY subtle BUT…

Pay attention to how I end in a completely different position.

What’s interesting is this is the first time I unlocked a cut that doesn’t end at the top of the sound but instead ends in the middle which now unlocks new combinations for me

I tried to do some research and discovered the DELAYED two click but that scratch starts in the middle of the sound not the top 🤔

No I’m not saying I invented anything but it’s cool to come up with new patterns through feeling because it reaffirms that my mind is still open to learning 📈
