P-Money (real name Peter Wadams) is currently scratching and mixing his way at the very top of New Zealand's hip-hop, DJing scene. He is from Papakura City, south of Auckland.


P-Money's initial entry into the music industry was via DJ competitions and student radio. He won turntablism competition the New Zealand DJ Championship three years in a row, and in 2001 ranked third equal at the Technics DMC World DJ Championships.


His debut album Big Things was released in 2002 and went gold in New Zealand.


His second album Magic City was released in 2004, containing number one single Stop the Music (November 2004). The album includes collaborations with local and international artists including Akon, Skillz, Jatis, Aasim, Capone, Grandmaster Roc Raida, and Scribe.


The talent and hard work of Aotearoa's champion DJ was recognized with the awards "Best Producer" (for his work on Scribe's multi-platinum album The Crusader) and "Songwriter of the Year" at the 2004 New Zealand Music Awards.


P-Money records for the label Dirty Records, which he co-owns. As well as Scribe, he has produced for other New Zealand artists including Decepticonz, Che Fu, Nesian Mystik, Mareko, and King Kapisi.

Mises on Money (5493 words)
We may give the name commodity money to that sort of money that is at the same time a commercial commodity; and the name fiat money to money that comprises things with a special legal qualification.
In Mises's theory of money, money is not what the State says it is – what he calls the "nominalist" theory of money.
The concept of money as a creature of law and the state is clearly untenable.

P: Yeah I guess it did, at 14 when I had the belt drive set up, I had that for 4 years and it was so frustrating.
P: Yeah the same obsession I had for DJing I had for hip hop production, I was fascinated by beats, where they got the breaks from, what machines they used and how the whole thing was made.
P: Certain might be famous or there'll be heads who are knowledgeable about the UK scene but as a whole most people don't know what's going on.
