He claims to be a born-again Christian and says that he will not be looking back.

The former club DJ has worked with the likes of Easy B, DJ Bunz and Otis Fraiser.  The 40-year-old claims that he was a big name in the late ‘90s and early 2000s.  He tells Showbiz that he received a calling from God that he should leave has his old life.

Saul says that his calling began in 2006 when he migrated from the copper mining town of Selebi Phikwe where he used to be a resident DJ at El Paso night club to the capital city. 

“I could feel that there was something calling me and I was slowly loosing love for the turntables,” he explains. He also mentions that the calling became so strong to the extent that he would have visions and dreams of God calling him.

Saul who is now a pulpit usher and a structural committee member at the Assemblies of God says that a number of night club owners attempted to offer him jobs, but he declined.  He says a number of club patrons always ask him why they do not see him on the decks anymore.

The former DJ says he still has love for music but in a different form.  He also says in his spare time he goes around hospitals preaching, praying for patients and helping the needy.

He mentions that since he has started his Christianity journey he does not miss the club life and is not planning on going back to his old ways.

Saul says his deejaying career started when he was still at high school using cassettes to mix after being inspired by his uncle Baleseng Baleseng a former RBI personality.
