Cosmo took over the Philadelphia scene when he was still just a teenager, playing at many of the city's top nightclubs before he was even legal . Although he was young, he possessed the musical savoir-fare of the ages. While growing up, Cosmo made himself at home with his family's record collection, which included everything from folk and blues to jazz and pop . However the style of music that had the biggest impact on him was hip-hop. When he started DJing, he took his love of hip hop and combined it with his knowledge of the other forms of music - developing a style of mixing music of different genres seamlessly to create a "bigger picture." This was the style that years down the road would influence many of Philly's most acclaimed DJs. As a DJ, Cosmo's musical knowledge crosses over to his approach to spinning. He sees each DJ set as a movement. much like a piece of classical music, that takes the listener on a journey from point A to point B. He was also able to incorporate the music training he had as a child, which includes violin, guitar, bass, piano, drums and music reading into the way that he would construct his sets.

Already established in Philly as one of the top DJs by the mid nineties, Cosmo moved to New York to take a job working at Eightball Records. It was here that he became a fixture on the scene and ended up spinning regularly in the downtown circuit. Although he loved his time in New York, he eventually returned back to Philly to finish college. Upon his return to Philly, he started a party named The Remedy. This party became an instant success, and further solidified Cosmo's reign at the top of the Philly DJ community. After a near fatal car accident, The Remedy was kept afloat by Cosmo's friend Rich Medina, and after Cosmo's return the two of them continued to preside over what is now called by many, "The dopest continuous weekly hip-hop jam in the United States" (Bobbito - 360hiphop.com, 2001.)

The turn of the century saw many changes for Cosmo. He started traveling to Las Vegas on a weekly basis to spin at Baby's Nightclub, inside The Hard Rock Hotel & Casino. He also started to devote more time to production and recording. Since 1997, he released several records, such as The Militant Mindstate, Munk Wit Da Funk, One Way and more. He also worked on his own solo material, which was by definition hip-hop, but showed as much influence of Neil Young as it did by EPMD. Included in his catalog of solo material was his distinctive mixed CDs - mixes that stayed true to his vision of a "movement in music," much like his DJ sets. During the first several years of the 21st century, Cosmo continued to play on the road, and at home he still presided over his parties like The Remedy, and Candyland, which he DJed with his friend ?uestlove of The Roots. Eventually, he moved back to Brooklyn where he teamed up with fellow music lovers DJ Ayres and DJ Eleven for The Rub, which is now widely considered New York's best DJ/dance party.

And that's the thing with Cosmo. He always lets his passion for music take him to new places, inspiring his DJ contemporaries and the people that come out to listen to him. Whether he's spinning for an intimate group of 50 or an audience of thousands, he always knows what song will engage and, of course, move the crowd. Whatever it is that he's involved with, judging by his track record, it could easily be the next big thing.
