DJ BlackOut is a native New Yorker who began mimicking his father who was also a Dee Jay. On the turntables from an early age, BlackOut became well versed in all genres of music. BlackOut's passions continued into his early teenage years where he got his start as a Dee Jay at high school parties and local clubs in the New York City area. BlackOut received his first break when he met Wyclef Jean at a club where Blackout was deejaying. Soon after, he joined the Refugee Camp/Booga Basement as a deejay, thus getting his first experience of touring in the music industry. During his time with the Refugee Camp, BlackOut began dabbling in music production. Eventually, sharpening his skills on the production side, while still deejaying within the music industry and becoming a staple in the industry. After extensive touring with various artists such as Jada Kiss, MIMS and others, BlackOut realized he needed to get out of his comfort zone, so he moved to Miami, Florida…which turned out to be the best decision of his life.
