Dummy is an unlikely name for a mastermind, yet DJ Dummy is definitely not a dummy when it comes to the turntables by any means. This Battle/Club/Concert DJ, as well as musical director and producer, grew up in Brooklyn.
In 1991, people took notice when this djing genius took the stage at the Supermen DJ Battle at the incredible age of 14. Hosting big names in the DJ battle circuit such as Mix Master Mike, Steve D, and DJ Eightball; the Supermen DJ Battle was a great accomplishment for a DJ. Dummy battled against his older brother and notable DJ, DJ LS1, who was proclaimed the winner of that battle. Yet Dummy's remarkable performance established his name within the industry and jump-started his career.
Not only is he talented at the skill of djing, but he also has the uncanny ability to excite a crowd of any size. This ability has attracted many of hip-hop's premier artists. These artists have observed Dummy's flawless ability to recreate the skill of the DJ live on stage. Through the years, Dummy has worked closely in creating stage shows and/or djing tours and concerts for the established artists such as Common, Talib Kweli, De La Soul, Kanye West and Mos Def.
