We're bringing the HEAT Friday! 🥵


Imagine! After weeks and weeks of back and forth weather we are finally seeing consistently warm days. Chicagoans are blasting Lil M.U. down Lake Shore Drive, Mario's Italian Lemonade is finally open for the summer and everyone is using the nice weather as an excuse to barbecue for no reason. Just three of a thousand reasons why I love Chicago!

This Juneteenth I'll be joining some of the best DJs in the city at Let's Jam!, a community barbecue at the lake. I can't wait to have a Blackity Black time and celebrate all that African-Americans have done to not only build this country, but carry it forward—even in the raggediest of times like today. If you haven't heard an afro-house set from me, you'll want to be there!

The inaugural AMAPRESSURE is quickly approaching and my body is beyond ready for the night! There are only five discounted tickets left before they go up to $15. Lock in your spot to hear all amapiano, all night long, from all femme DJs! We're bringing the HEAT to The Wild Hare Friday. See you on the dancefloor!


NEW MIX!

I went live on 10PMRadio with a really fun, high-energy mix! From Dancehall to Jersey Club, there's truly something for everybody (Black) in this mix. Tune in!


Welcome to the Dyasphere

This year was the best birthday I've had in several years! Not only did I play two shows that are very aligned with who I am and where I want to go in my career, I simply felt loved and considered by the people around me. While I did not vlog the day of, I did capture the weekend celebrations at ASHAWO and Vigro Deep's show for JAMA! Tap in!

If you're existing on the internet like the rest of us, you've likely heard the ongoing conversations of elder millennials and younger ones alike about feeling less inclined to go out and "party" but still wanting to gather publicly with friends. While I can't completely agree—I will likely be partying until my final days—I will say that I've absolutely hungered for a space to socialize and meet new people without the pressure of typical nightlife. Introducing CTRL-ALTÉ-RPT, where you can...
