Lagos is the entertainment hub of Nigeria. It is that city where there is always a fun event on every street corner, and a Lagos party is undoubtedly incomplete without a DJ entertaining guests with the best grooves. Several DJs are making waves in the industry, and it’s great to see that they are receiving their flowers recently. Being exceptional at what you do is great and would certainly help you command the big bucks in your career. This piece explores a list of exceptional disc jockeys spinning records and raking in the big dough.
DJ Crowd Kontroller
Crowd Kontroller only started learning how to DJ as a hobby during his time at the university since he has always loved music. His passion for music can be felt in every beat he has ever produced. This DJ’s love for music and beats has certainly paid off, making him one of the most sought-after jockeys in Lagos.
DJ Tunez
Tunez started out his career by being the official label DJ of Starboy Entertainment. His first official production was Iskaba with Wande Coal, which was a big hit as many described it as the 2nd best song of the year. From his early career stages, it was clear that Tunes would be making all the right moves, and his numbers are a testament.
DJ Consequence
DJ Consequence is not a newbie in the entertainment scene. His ability to seamlessly mix different music genres and understand the kind of music each crowd enjoys is something not just any regular disc jockey can achieve.
