Knowing what to call Houston Alexander really depends on what day you see him. If you grew up in his native Omaha, you might have known Alexander by his graffiti tag, Scribble. These days, listeners tuning into his Sunday night show on Omaha's Power 106.9 know him as Strong Arm. On a few Saturdays a year, this recent addition to the Ultimate Fighting Championship steps into the Octagon as The Assassin. It's a name he earned fighting his way through the bush leagues of mixed martial arts on his way to the big show. But it's on Fridays during the school year, when he simply goes by Mr. Alexander, that Houston does some of his most important work: teaching Nebraska school children about the true history of Hip Hop through his Culture Shock School Tour. Educator, graf artist, DJ, professional ass-kicking machine, read up on what makes Alexander a modern day Renaissance man.
