With his distinctive bass-baritone voice, DuBose quickly became a sought-after announcer for various events, phone auto-attendants for Fortune 500 companies, and voiceovers for national commercials. He then ventured into radio, hosting live shows on KHWY-FM in Barstow, California, for over seven years, where he honed his on-air skills and developed his craft.
DuBose's extensive knowledge of R&B history and the national R&B singles charts led him to create and host the syndicated radio program "Timeless Traxx," which reaches over 40 stations and has expanded to the international market in five countries. On the show, he counts down the top R&B songs in America, based on the National R&B Charts, and shares the history of each song, including the date it entered the charts.
The show's success led to the creation of the award-winning YouTube webisode series "Do You Know," which provides a visual representation of the radio show, along with trivia about the history of R&B. DuBose's extraordinary knowledge of R&B history also earned him a job as a show contributor for the popular TV One program "UNSUNG," where he shares unknown facts and commentary about legendary artists.
