Cheese was later Invited by Tony Prince to appear in the inaugural DMC DJ World Championship. Cheeses portion of the competition incorporated scratching, which initiated a different approach to deejay battling and changed the course of DMC competitions moving forward.[7] I
In 1985–1986 under his label Profile Records, Cheese released two vinyl 12" singles with the group Word Of Mouth entitled 'Coast to Coast'[8] and 'King Kut'.[9] King Kut would be used in the coming years as a way of "basing songs around how great your deejay is."[10]
In 1986, Cheese would headline both nights at the London’s "UK Fresh ’86" show at the Wembley Arena.[11] It was during these performances that DJ Cheese performed his set along with KMC and MC Original G from Word of Mouth.[4][12] Later that year Cheese would collaborate with Fats Comet on the song 'Eat The Beat'.[13]
