He said his first performance at Quthing District in Lesotho was a thriller in a come together session in 2013 where he performed alongside one of South Africa's finest artistes, Problem Child and Thubzin the Heavy Drummer.

He also recollects some of his breakthrough performances alongside South Africa's greatest musicians; Uhuru, Naakmusiq and Shota.

He said his good effort has granted him slots in the Flight 326 and 180 Experience shows on RB2 hosted by Captain Sean on Saturdays at 530pm to 6pm and on Tuesdays at 2am to 230 am.

Deejay Zoski said at his leisure time he produces birthday mixes preferably House music but noted that he is also flexible to play RNB and hip hop music.

He said Botswana's top deejays in the likes of DJ Chabo, Ricky Lamar, Team Distant and DJ Gouviea are a source of inspiration for him.
