Hello My name is Martin "DJ Mookie" Smith,
My dad (T. Richard Smith) host of the IMPAK show on KXCI is the reason I wanted to get into being a DJ. He's been on the airways for over 40 years now and taught my brother and I about the rich history of R&B 50s-present music. During the summers of early 90's-early 2000's my dad would take my brother and me down to KXCI to watch him do the Sounds Of Joy Gospel show. My dad had a chance to become one of the first Black African-American Broadcaster in the state of Arizona. He interviewed huge megastars like James Brown, Dennis Edwards of The Temptations, Larry Cunningham of The Floaters, Sam Moore from Sam & Dave, The Bar-Kays at Casino Desert Diamond Monsoon and many, many more electrifying superstars. My dad had a passion for doing the radio show and being a MC! An it was doing the shows with my dad on the radio were I fell in love with being a DJ. I just got my official DJ certification last year 2018 and ready to give you the soulful sounds of IMPAK every Saturday night from 9pm-12am. My dad passed away on November 29th, 2019 and I took over the show for him now. IMPAK with DJ MOOKIE will continue. R.I.H. Thomas "T. Richard" Smith. I Love You so much!!
Yah Bless Y'all,
Martin E. "Mookie" Smith
