DJ Jedi has had a very full career thus far. While touring with Digable Planets, Jedi has done every major festival, from Coachella in Indio to Sonar in Barcelona. He’s toured the country as the DJ for the Def Poetry tour, he’s won an Emmy, and is currently a resident the legendary Root Down crew and the Modern Audio Collective (with J-Logic and Dam Funk).
In his own words:
While Jedi’s influences may stem primarily from hip hop culture, he also carries a deeply rooted appreciation for the classic soul, funk, jazz, rock, dance, and pop music that hip hop so heavily draws from. He believes strongly in the power of music to bring people of different cultures and backgrounds together in ways that they otherwise wouldn’t, and is never too proud to whore out his services for weddings, bar mitzvahs, industry showcases, and birthday parties.
With that said, make sure to check out DJ Jedi this Saturday at The Come Up. Check out this mix from last week’s Do Over, where he was one of the guests.
