By the time I reached high school, I had made a name for myself selling my mixtape CDs around my neighborhood, local stores, and barbershops. That’s when I realized that I wanted to pursue a career in not only DJing but doing radio as well.

Muzique Magazine – To what or whom do you accredit your sense of style?

Wow. That’s a great question! I was born in Providence, RI to Haitian parents, so I definitely accredit my style to my Caribbean background. I grew up listening to a lot of legends from my hometown in Providence, RI to my second home in New York City, to my current home in Orlando, FL.

So, I would also have to accredit my sense of style to legends like DJ Buck, DJ Big Stress, DJ Half Pint, Fred Da Great, DJ Finesse, DJ Rukiz, DJ CR, DJ Squeak, Funkmaster Flex, Kid Kapri, DJ Red Alert, Tony Touch, DJ Camilo, DJ Clue, DJ Envy, DJ Superstar Jay, DJ Whoo Kid, DJ D-Strong, DJ Stakz, DJ Juice, DJ D-Nice, DJ Prostyle, DJ Nasty, DJ Khaled and the list goes on…

Muzique Magazine – What are some of your greatest challenges, and what is your greatest attribute when it comes to your work ethic?

At the moment, the COVID-19 pandemic has been by far one of my greatest challenges as it has kind of forced us, DJs, into a challenging space. With all the clubs and venues shutting down, it slowed down the money we use to pay our bills.

As a result, a lot of us DJs are using Instagram Live, Facebook Live, Youtube Live, Twitch, and recently Mixcloud Live to stream our sets. My greatest attribute when it comes to my work ethic would definitely be that I’m definitely a hustler and I’m different! I’m still learning the game and it inspires me to be better!

DJ Xclusive City is unstoppable. He’s been known for breaking records over the past years, he was the first DJ to premiere “If” with DaVido back in 2017.  And the first to break Afro B’s smash hit “Drogba (Joanna)” in the clubs.  Xclusive City was chosen back in Dec 2019 as the newest member of the world famous Da Union DJ Crew.  He now does 104.5 The Beat and iHeartRadio weekdays with Viva La Koi, weekends with DJ D-Strong and has his own live mix show Sunday VIBEZ on Sunday Nights playing the latest tunes and upcoming artists. 

 The term DJ is used to describe a wide variety of characters in today’s musical landscape.  There are DJs who are on the radio, DJs who spin at clubs, DJs who perform at festivals, DJs who produce…and then there are DJs who do it all.  That is DJ Xclusive City.

Alwyn Morrison explores betrayal, judgment, and survival on new EP “Trial”

Alwyn Morrison

Life isn’t always a straight line, and Alwyn Morrison explores that in “Trial,” a four-track EP that goes beyond the familiar territory of love and heartbreak. The project blends pop, rock, and singer-songwriter influences, exploring themes of betrayal, false accusations, emotional pain, self-defense, and survival. Each track is inspired by courtrooms and is a step in a personal journey of understanding, acceptance, and ultimately freedom.

The first track, “Puzzle Piece,” is Morrison’s raw, heavy alternative rock sound, fitting the weight of betrayal and false accusations. The song has a sense of tension, putting you in the shoes of someone trying to understand a difficult situation. Followed by “Everybody Bleeds,” which follows that emotional path, creating a song about confusion, openness, and the struggles we all face, and it’s an emotional listen, with hard truths and personal experiences laid bare.

Alwyn Morrison

The project’s focus track, “Monster,” goes into more personal territory. It explores what happens when we are judged or condemned for the choices we make, and it carries a message that goes far beyond Morrison’s own experience. The central theme will strike a chord with anyone who has felt misunderstood, unfairly labeled, or defined by others’ opinions.

Alwyn Morrison

The EP closes with “Fireflies,” a track that shifts the mood, contrasting childhood innocence and memories with the realities of adult life. The sequence moves the story toward resilience, survival, and earned acceptance. Alwyn Morrison spins a musical tale of hard life experiences put to the test. The courtroom concept gives the four songs real purpose to move on without letting past experience dictate the future.

Fanny Alexandra explores emotional recovery and self-discovery on “Ceasefire”

Fanny Alexandra

Not every fight ends a relationship, and there could be long-term emotional damage, with questions about identity, attachment, and the difficult path to moving on. “Ceasefire” is a ghostly alternative rock ballad in which Fanny Alexandra navigates difficult terrain, exploring emotional dependency and the search for selfhood after a toxic relationship.

“Ceasefire” is full of sad melodies and hints of atmospheric rock, making it a dark, cinematic listen. The song’s alt-rock pivot provides an emotionally charged foundation, and it’s about the internal battle, especially when your identity has been so tied to another person.

Fanny Alexandra’s ethereal vocal approach suits the song, lending real emotional weight to the exploration of self-loss and internal tension. “Ceasefire” is a reflective track, with atmospheric instrumentation and deeply personal songwriting that capture feelings that can linger long after a tough chapter closes.

It’s about finding yourself again, and its emotional arc moves from openness and dependence to the hard-earned discovery that personal freedom is more than just walking away. Fanny Alexandra’s love for dark, emotional alternative music inspired “Ceasefire.” Her art is about intimate storytelling, cinematic atmosphere, and making music that explores the quieter struggles people tend to keep inside. In this record, she turns the fallout from a toxic relationship into a meditative reflection on the long road to selfhood.
