Born and raised in Vancouver, DJ KIDD started changing the city's urban
music scene in 1999. Feeling there was a need for something totally
different, he practiced the Cali-style of mixing he grew up listening
to on mixtapes. Honing his skills dj'ing house parties, high school
dances & weddings, Kidd quickly became one of the top mobile dj's
in the city.
He was soon introduced to the nightclub scene by local promoters, put
into rotation and has been packing the clubs ever since.
Now, he has shared the stage & performed for the likes of Snoop
Dogg, Ginuwine, Jin the MC, Chingy, DJ Kool, Pete Rock & CL Smooth
just to name a few. In addition, he has rocked parties from the likes
of Maxim Magazine, Smirnoff Vodka, Alize, The Telus International Ski
& Snowboard Fest, Hot Import Nights, and many more. He also has
been featured on TV shows like MTV Select & Pass The Mic.
His skills have also gained him opportunities to travel across Canada
and the United States.
Now, he resides at some of Vancouver’s biggest and highly acclaimed
nightspots, not to mention a monthly residency in Seattle.
As a DJ of experience coming into his prime, DJ KIDD is known for his
smooth mixing, “shut the club down” remixes & party
rocking emceeing style. He also, continues to keep his name in the streets
with his cutting edge, hard hitting mixtapes which satisfies any soul
that longs to be moved onto the dancefloor.
With his latest mixtape release(the 9th in his collection,) the Soy
Clothing-sponsored “SO SICK” mixtape he is not only maintaining
the game but stepping it up for those who remain to stay oblivious.
