In 1990 Howard graduated from T.S.U. with a Computer Science degree and accepted a Computer Engineering position with a Memphis based firm. He satisfied his passion for DJing by producing mix tapes containing popular styles of music from other regions in the country and “opening up” for popular DJs in the city.

America’s Premier Steel Spinner Howard Q. continued working to bridge the distance between the streets and mainstream urban radio by hosting the first ever mix show (Power Mix @ 6) and live broadcast from “The Spot” on the 100,000 watt heritage station WHRK K-97 FM in Memphis Tennessee.

(Thursday & Sunday night mix show live from Denim & Diamonds on K-97, Old School Drive @ 5 on V 101.1, Weekend guests spots on Power 98 & Saturday night live on Hot 107).
