Er ist neben Rakaa Iriscience und Evidence Mitglied der Formation Dilated Peoples. Seine Aktivität in beiden Gruppen brachte ihm den Spitznamen "Babu The Dilated Junkie" ein. Er gewann 1997 erstmals in der Geschichte des Turntablism zugleich drei Titel in drei Kategorien des ITF DJ Battles: Den ITF Beatjuggling World Champion, den ITF Scratching World Champion und mit seiner Crew, den Beat Junkies, den ITF Team World Champion Titel. Das ITF DJ Battle gilt als eines der bedeutendsten international organisierten DJ-Battles.
