Fred Buggs was born in Brooklyn and raised in Queens. Being exposed to local bands and talent shows, as well as hosting fashion shows, all contributed to him being on radio. Following a visit to WWRL (NYC), where he was guided by some of the best in the radio business, an opportunity arose at WBLS (NYC) to engineer for Frankie Crocker. Following his on-air start, Buggs moved around the East Coast, becoming one of the architects for Power 99 FM (Philadelphia) and 98.7 Kiss FM (NYC). He also achieved much success in programming operations.
 
After five years, he ventured deeper into the music industry, working with Def Jam and Warner Brothers/Cold Chillin’ Records as Marketing and A&R Director. However, in 1993 the “radio bug” was calling him once again. The stage was being set for New York City’s first hip-hop radio station, a time Buggs describes as “special.” With the radio energy growing within the community, he returned to programming 98.7 Kiss FM as Assistant Program Director/Music Director.
 
God, family, and the community are very important to Buggs, and he has been honored with several awards during his career, both from the music industry and the community he serves. Tune into his world on SiriusXM FLY weekdays from 12 pm–6 pm ET.

Grammy Award Winning DJ and producer Kid Capri is globally known as an originator, innovator, and pioneer of DJ culture. Capri’s humble roots trace back to his parent’s home in the Bronx, where ten-year-old David Anthony Love would scratch records on his father’s old Zenith stereo system. As soon as he was old enough, he hit the pavement and caught a buzz hustling his DJ mixtapes on the streets and performing local gigs. His grass roots hustler mentality became a template for success emulated by the DJs that followed in his footsteps. Dubbed “The Guru of Mixtapes,” Capri literally redefined the term “DJ” as he blazed a trail with his array of fire mixtapes and lit crowd-hyping performances.

Capri was the first DJ to perform on major networks like BET and VH1, and was lead judge on VH1’s Master of the Mix DJ competition show. He starred in the popular HBO series Def Comedy Jam and returned for the Netflix Def Comedy Jam 25^th anniversary special. Capri has produced tracks for Snoop Dogg, Jay-Z, Madonna, Heavy D, and 50 Cent; and has years of touring experience with legends such as Diddy, Jay Z, Aaliyah, Salt-N Peppa, Timbaland, and RBRM (Ronnie/Bobby/Ricki/Mike).

Capri won a Grammy for producing a song on Jay-Z’s classic album Hard Knock Life, and narrated Kendrick Lamar’s DAMN., the only hip-hop album to ever win a Pulitzer Prize. He premiered his signature crowd-hyping vocals at Jennifer Lopez’s ALL I HAVE Las Vegas residency during the magical portion of her show dedicated to The Bronx. 

Tune into Kid Capri’s The Block Party weekends on SiriusXM FLY for exclusive Kid Capri content that bridges hip-hop’s generational gap by infusing old school jams with new school bangers. From local legend to global icon, Capri continues to shape the landscape of DJ culture.
