Special Guest:
KID CAPRI
Grammy Award-Winning DJ and Producer, KID CAPRI, is globally known as an originator, innovator, and pioneer of DJ Culture. KID’s humble roots can be traced back to his parent’s home in the Bronx, where ten-year-old David Anthony Love would scratch records on his father’s old Zenith stereo system. As soon as he was old enough, he hit the pavement and caught a buzz hustling his DJ mixtapes on the streets and performing local gigs. His grassroots hustler mentality became a template for success emulated by the DJs that followed in his footsteps.
Dubbed The Guru of Mixtapes, KID CAPRI literally redefined the term “DJ” as he blazed a trail with his array of fire mixtapes and lit crowd-hyping performances. “A true master is somebody that makes other people want to do what they do.” - KID CAPRI
