Shaping the Perception of Haiti
Based in Queens, he became popular not long after 50 Cent and G-Unit
rose to fame. His new fame has enabled him to have his own radio show
on New York’s Hot 97 as well as on Sirus Satellite Radio. Because of his
close relation the G-Unit group, he was made their official DJ.
On January 15, 2004, DJ Whoo Kid won the award for Best Mixtape DJ at
Justo Faison's Eighth Annual Mixtape Awards. He has appeared on
magazines such as XXL, Tablist, Mixtape,[citation needed] and many
others. He has also released DVDs and a clothing line in Japan.
Whoo Kid's mixtape musical selection tends to lean towards aggressive,
New-York flavored gangsta rap, and his show features many new and
unheard tunes, often exclusives from the G-Unit Records camp.
He has branched out into journalism,[citation needed] and has written
about DJing in Bahrain, which he visited with Tyson Beckford and John
Legend, where he hung out with Michael Jackson.
He was also featured in the video game, 50 Cent: Bulletproof.
He went to Queensborough Community College for some time.
When Eminem and 50 Cent were scheduled to make an appearance
during the Grammy Awards, he convinced everyone to change the
channel. It was the first time he saw a "Free Yayo" shirt-his time worn by
Eminem.[4]
Inspired by the shirt, he started working extra hard on his rhymes while
keeping in touch with the G-Unit crew who were letting him know that he
would get his chance once he was a free man.
On January 8, 2004, Tony Yayo was released from prison, but after
presenting a forged passport to his parole officer a day later, he was
imprisoned again for a few weeks.
Upon release, Tony Yayo was finally able to start work on his debut album.
Whilst working on his album, he was also recording on the G-Unit Radio
mixtape series in which he announced his return on the street level.
