The station, which is powered by the U.S. Census Bureau, will feature a wide range of genres including afro beats, dance hall, reggae, soca, hip hop, top 40 and big chune, and will serve as a complement to sister station WVEE-FM (V-103).

He has since been heard on airwaves in many cities along the East coast. In 2012, Kweku launched Dark Secret International which is dedicated to developing long term business relationships with African, Asian and Hispanic communities across the globe.

At age 16, he joined "Super Saint Disco" in St. Andrew and travelled across Jamaica performing in sound clashes and dances. He later joined popular Jamaican station Hot 102 FM where he produced four award-winning and top-rated current affairs radio programs. Mix Master David is one of the top requested DJs in Atlanta today, he plays dancehall parties as well as crossover events mixing hip hop, top 40 and electronic music.
