Ross “ Kahuna” Howard aka DJ Big Kahuna Let’s start off by giving credit to where credit is due. In 1969 I was birthed to a set of parents that made IKE and TINA; David Ruffin and Tammy; all look like they were sparing partners. But, none the less they are mine and I love that they had me and gave me to the sons of SOUL and gave me the nurturing nectar of FUNK, JAZZ, and R&B, to motivate my mind.
The energy, well it is like if you touched a light socket with a Barbie/ booby pin when you were three. LOL, yeah that strong, and yes it hurt because I did not know what that foot tapping feeling was all about. Well after a few time of touching that Diamond Needle on a cold steel platter I knew I needed to know what this was giving me a shock of a life time. To hear the soft scratching sound that came from the black rubbery Frisbee like disc amazed me. Yes a FRISBEE!!!!! I saw the name label on the machine; it read S E A R S. Only being four years old I did not know that SEARS was a mega company back in the day along with a company called FEDERALS and they both use to be in my neighborhood and my family always shopped there to get stuff for the house but never for the machine that sent that special energy through my soul.
Fourty years later I have learn and harnessed that energy for my soul. That energy is call music. Having had learned to play three instruments and then finally learning to play my turntables I bring to the music world more than my EARS. More than a ordinary listen would bring to the headphones. Between my ears lays a vast knowledge of his first 45 brought (DELLS ”stay in my corner”) and then learning what a 78 (Ella Fitzgerald) was and learning who BLUE NOTE was and what they are today. Between my headphones comes the Kahuna of the lost and past souls of yesteryears and the newest heart beats of today’s soul breathing life into the music world.
I would like to thank all the stations that gave me the opportunities to bring musical narration to the people of their communities:
