For the character from the Terminator franchise, see T-X.
Norman Rogers (better known by his stage name Terminator X) (born August 25, 1966) is a retired American DJ, best known for his work with rap group Public Enemy, which he left in 1999. He also produced two solo albums, Terminator X & The Valley of Jeep Beats (1991) and Super Bad (1994), featuring, among others, Chuck D, Sister Souljah, Kool DJ Herc, the Cold Crush Brothers, and a bass music track by the Punk Barbarians.
Terminator X retired in 2003, and has been running an ostrich stud farm in South Carolina.[1]
In 2010, he returned, with a new album entitled Judgement Day, set for release in 2011. It is said to be "a tribute to the five elements of hip-hop, which include B-boying, graffiti, rapping, DJ’ing and knowledge" [3]
