He also interviewed various guests including St. Louis’ own Nelly and the St. Lunatics.

Craig put his stamp on his adopted hometown of St. Louis. Through his work in radio and more recently his Community Cuts for Kids project (#CCFK), Community Cuts was first launched as Blac’s way to give back to the community after becoming a hugely popular as an On-air Personality at WFUN-FM’s Q95.5.

Over the years Community Cuts has not only provided haircuts to boys and hairstyles for girls, but also school supplies and health screenings so that the area youth are set for their first day of class. Craig Blac’s Community Cuts for Kids kicks off its 17th Year in August 2017.
