DJ Pepsi entered the music scene at a young age. Influenced by his older brother
Oskido, he soon developed his own style. Pepsi started playing in Hillbrow clubs such as Arena and Razzmatazz in the early 90s. He grew as a deejay and very soon started playing nationally.
When Joburg's ground breaking radio station Y-fm started broadcasting, Pepsi co-hosted the Phat Joe Show on Fridays. He released his first album, Sexy Summer Grooves Vol 1, a House compilation in 1999. That was followed the next year by Vol 2.
Pepsi began playing Ibiza in 1998, one of the first SA deejays to do so.
In 2000, Pepsi discovered songstress Tamara Dey, releasing her debut hit EP "What am I to do?" and later her well received album "First Lady".
The iconic Spring Day Music Explosion was incepted by DJ Pepsi in 2001. Hosted alongside DJ Mahoota, the tour is now in it's tenth year and has grown to twelve shows.
Pepsi's Lyrics, his third album, was released in 2002, followed by Bumpa Tsotsi in 2004. The hit single "Come fetch your wife" was off this album. Pepsi's last album release was Royal House Collection, which included the hit Pepsi's Revenge.
