Critical Beatdown Artist Dj KU from Tampa Fl. is back for another session in the Hip Hop Room tonight!!
Demanded state wide and nationally, DJ KU is one of Florida's most highly recognized and sought after DJ's. With over ten years of solid DJ experience under his belt, he continues to be one of the southeast's most respected and influential DJ's in the nightclub scene. KU began his lifelong relationship with music as a diehard hip hop junkie, but through the years, his ear quickly became attracted to and exposed to the likes of funk, soul, house, electro, and more. And today, with an unquestioned love for all kinds of music, his catalogue spans the test of time and has proved itself time and time again to entertain any crowd.
KU has traveled the country, as well as parts of the world to bring his signature sound to audiences of all kind. Past cities include the likes of Los Angeles, Miami, Las Vegas, Vancouver, Tokyo, Bangkok, Hong Kong, Boston, Austin, and many more. Through the years he has been fortunate enough to work with such nationally acclaimed acts like the late DJ AM, DJ Jazzy Jeff, DJ Scene, DJ Vice, Tony Touch, Lil Jon, Diplo, and more. Noteworthy celebrities he has had the honor to provide soundtracks for include Kendra Wilkinson, Kim Kardashian, Bill Bellamy, Michael Jordan, Derek Jeter, and more.
Throughout the years, his efforts have not gone unrecognized. His critically acclaimed mixtape, "Ill Commuzikation," has moved over 5000 units in Florida alone and has been downloaded over 10,000 times since 2009. Also, during the summer of 2011, he was invited to join Critical Beatdown, a collective of DJs, crowd movers, and taste makers with members all throughout the United States. As of recent, Pulse Magazine, a publication based in central Florida, named him club DJ of the Year for 2012! And finally in May of 2012, Ku was invited to compete in the infamous Red Bull Thre3style (Southeast Regionals in Charlotte, NC) and came home the champ!
Amongst all the same old DJ's there only stands a few who really stick out and leave a mark. One of those being Florida's own DJ KU. With his feet firmly planted in the roots of true school DJing and turntablism, he without a doubt brings a refreshing sound to the new school ways. In a rapidly growing digital age, KU has managed to evolve, yet stay true to the ways of what a DJ should really be. His music selection, flawless mixing techniques, turntablism, and stage presence are on a level of their own. Whether it's hip hop, rock, reggae, funk, house, or anywhere in between, he always manages to keep the dancefloor alive and full of energy.
