Disk Jockey in Nigeria which started off as a hobby for some people has gradually become a professional business which is a source of livelihood to many Nigerians.
The Djing industry has gradually grown over time due to popular demands of parties organized on a regular basis.
As the music industry blossoms so is the Disk Jockey industry which welcomes fresh and new enthusiastic individuals onboard regularly.
Meanwhile, popular Disk Jockey, DJ Neptune doesn’t really think the industry is moving forward as he claims its being monotonous.
For the DJ, he expects his colleagues to try new things away from the regular way of Djing to make the profession more interesting.
The urban Radio DJ said: “DJs are needed to diversify their sets and not be scared to try out and promote new music. The monotonous style of DJing has made going out and listening to music boring. Most DJs are skeptical about trying out new music because they are uncertain as to how the crowd would receive the music.
When you’re on radio, it’s a different sect. You’re not at a party. Use that medium to introduce new music to them (the audience)” DJs are an important part of introducing new music to Nigerians apart from the media.”
