DJ Blayze's Rise to the Top of the Music Industry
Dj Blayze has recently been promoted to A&R of BSMG Records, known as Beat Sumthin Music Group. The label's CEO, multi-platinum producer, writer, and engineer, T Berry and the executives are thrilled with their new acquisition. They believe that DJ Blayze will help launch the label and their artists careers to the next level. Through his hard work and dedication, DJ Blayze has climbed his way to the top of the music industry and has worked with many artists along the way.
DJ Blayze Has Always Loved Music
"I actually started deejaying in elementary school", says DJ Blayze. DJ Blayze was born on May 7, 1973 in Mobile, Alabama. Early on, he developed a reputation as the music kid and his mother always made sure that love of music was fueled.
He was just five years old when he was chosen to conduct the Mobile Symphony Orchestra, during an elementary school field trip, thus giving birth to a music connoisseur. "On Saturday mornings I would provide the 'soundtrack' for my mother as she cleaned the house" and "really became interested in being a DJ in middle school while watching other djs perform". It was only fitting because at these parties DJ Blayze wouldn't be the one dancing, he would stand or sit right where the DJ was set up, watching intently to every movement of the dj.
DJ Blayze Radio Career
DJ Blayze started his professional radio career at WDLT-FM in Mobile, Alabama and moved over to WBLX-FM before moving on to WVEE-FM in Atlanta, GA. His radio journey would lead him to WOWI-FM in Norfolk, Virginia to KIIZ-FM in Killeen, Texas. Now he's back home holding down middays on the Gulf Coast heritage station 92.9 WBLX-FM.
DJ Blayze First Mix Tapes
His first mixtape was called 'DJ Blayze Most Blunted', which he has plans to reactivate in 2023. Credited for being one of the first in his city to embrace the mixtape game, he has dropped several mixtapes underground over the years and in the last decade dropping mixtapes in New York City through his affiliation with Bronx DJ coalition SCURRY LIFE DJs.
His most recent projects with Meego Daigotti (Big Meego Sh$t) from Mobile, AL and Mz. Goodz (Hard) from Cleveland, Ohio can be found online.
DJ Blayze Transition From On-Air Personality to A&R
DJ Blayze has been in radio or very close for over 30 years and has seen many trends come and go. After years in radio, DJ Blayze is seasoned to transition from on-air personality to a dual role as an A&R. He has hosted showcases, worked personally with and has consulted artists which lends years of hands-on experience.
He will be working with BSMG Records as an A&R and he couldn't be more excited for this opportunity. "I'm looking forward to being a part of not only the company but also continuing to mentor new artists".
