DJ Radikal
Atlanta, GA
Turntablist Born and raised in Brooklyn (Flatbush), New York, DJ Radikal grew up in the birth place of Hip Hop. At the early age of 5 he developed a passion for the 1’s and 2’s. He watched many family members on the turntables and studied DJs at block parties, events, and by watching videos. When he saw DJ Jazzy Jeff and DJ Nabs in action live, his life changed forever and his desire to learn the arts of scratching and turntablism was etched in stone. His parents saw his relentless passion and decided to invest in his dream. Today DJ Radikal is a staple in the DJ community and has devoted his craft to the Lord. As nice as he is on the 1's and 2's, Radikal's love is exemplified in fatherhood and mentoring the next generation of musicians through his enrichment program, Radikal DJ Academy. |

Aaron moved to Atlanta and felt a call to return to music but on mission for the Kingdom.
