DJ QBert Performs on REVOLT Live’s ‘1s and Tuesday’

DJ QBert

Last week, the one and only DJ QBert stopped by REVOLT Live to put down a routine for the rising TV network. Over the last couple months, we’ve helped bring nearly a dozen heavy hitters to the show but having QBert was a special treat. In addition to doing what he does best, the legendary “Jedi Master” also spoke with the show’s co-host DJ Damage about how he got into DJing, his jazz-inspired approach to scratching, never-ending education, latest albums, and more. Watch QBert’s set and interview below:
