Aston Taylor Jr. was born in the Bronx borough of New York City to sound system professional and DJ Aston George Taylor Sr.〔(Ex, Christian. "Funkmaster Flex Return of the Master." Vibe Mar. 1997 )〕 At age 16, he began DJing at local nightclubs.〔 At 19, he began working with fellow Bronx native Chuck Chillout for WRKS 98.7 Kiss-FM in New York. He later left KISS, and spent a brief period at 107.5 WBLS-FM.〔Shapiro, Peter (2005) ''The Rough Guide to Hip-Hop'', Rough Guides, ISBN 1-84353-263-8, p.149-150〕
In the early 1990s, Flex made club appearances at many of Vito Bruno's operated nightclubs. Bruno later convinced Joel Salkowitz, a regional vice president of Hot 97, to begin airing live broadcasts from clubs where he was performing. When they realized the resurgence of Hip Hop was coming fast from its fallout in the eighties, they increased the hours of this urban radio programming.〔Charnas, Dan (2010). ''The Big Payback: The History of the Business of Hip-Hop'', ISBN 978-1-101-44582-2〕 Due to the success of that programming, in the spring of 1992 Funkmaster Flex began mixing and hosting his own show, a specialized rap program on Hot 97. With this, Hot 97 became the first pop station in New York to showcase rap. Flex has been with Hot 97 ever since, and currently airs nationally through syndication during weeknights and weekends.〔 He is well known for his signature "bomb drop" sound effect over records.
