DJ Fresh On How He Came Close To Giving Up On Radio. Media personality DJ Fresh is one of the most loved radio hosts on Metro FM but the star has admitted that it took a lot from him to finally get his big break and that he came close to just giving up the passion and the skills he had of ever being on radio.
As an encouragement to listeners to never give up he shared his experience of worming his way into radio and how persistence can do a lot more for a person.
He said that at one point he even stopped sending demos because he just couldn’t get a foot in the door.
“I pretty much stopped and then the YFM opportunity appeared. But I had stopped sending demos because I was like nobody is responding. Nobody is calling.”
Fresh said that he got so disheartened that he decided to focus his energy on school instead. Only to finally get his break.
“After five years of trying and trying, I stopped because I was like let me focus on school. So that is what I did, and then the light shone.”
