Read Sir Jay Boogie’s bio:
DJ Sir Jay Boogie began DJing around sixth or seventh grade. He mastered blending, mixing and scratching at an early age because in his neighborhood it was the “thing” to do. When Boog’s mom relocated from Ohio to California in 1987, he was sent to live with his father in Alabama. By twelfth grade, Jay was DJing high school functions and other local area events. At this point, he had even started to build a collection of dj equipment and still uses some of his original controllers, mixers, and turntables to this day. While attending Central State University in Wilberforce, Ohio, he was an intern for Radio One. By the time that situation turned into an employment opportunity, Jay was bitten be the “DJ” bug once again.
Sir Jay Boogie began DJing professionally (for money) in 1998. Since then, he has moved crowds, while performing for numerous event promoters and organizations at clubs, comedy shows, step shows, festivals, fund-raisers, corporate events, college parties, receptions, etc. Some of the cities he has performed in are Atlanta, Los Angeles, Houston, Dallas, Philadelphia, Charlotte, Memphis, Detroit, Grand Rapids, Indianapolis, Des Moines, Louisville, Cleveland, Columbus, and Cincinnati.
