Prince Pauper has been deejaying in New Orleans for the last twenty some years. No longer in clubs, the record selecting now happens at the every once in a while yard dance and monthly on the local community radio station WWOZ, 90.7fm. He spends his working days at Domino Sound Record Shack on Bayou Road playing more records in hopes that people will extract more reggae, international, and other genuine goodies from the shop to put on their own speakers. When customers are sparse, he tends to the flowers out front.
