DJ Lenno – “the God father of Australian R&B” & accredited ARIA award winner…..

Mention the name DJ Lenno to most Australians, and immediately you’ll get a response synonymous with……. The most famous Australian Urban DJ, of all time.

The impact that Lenno has made on what we listen to today in urban music, has earned him, the connotation as the “God father of Australian R&B.”

Whilst fitting in a colourful career as a lawyer, DJ Lenno been instrumental in pioneering urban music in Australia for over a decade

With 4 gold albums to his credit, DJ Lenno has since sold over 200,000 CDs, achieving not only combined gold & platinum status but also an accredited ARIA award as testimony to his massive following in Australia; as well as over a decade of success & appearances in more than 600 clubs and events worldwide.

DJ Lenno was the first DJ in Australian history to release an urban compilation called “The Ultimate R&B Collection” (released through Warner music Australia in 1997). Cutting edge at its time, the critics couldn’t stop raving about it:

“Over the past 10 years despite its immense popularity R&B has taken a beating in the credibility stakes….This album is quite a nice little offering in the dark and dodgy world of compilation albums….Lenno puts together the best of such genre….and provides an album worth owning….”Sunday Telegraph NOV 23rd 1997

The Sunday Telegraph graphically mirrored public response to Dj Lenno by rating “the Ultimate R & B Collection” a 7/10, out bidding Spiceworld by the Spicegirls (5/10) and Carnival of Souls by Kiss (3/10)…. R&B had come of age and thanks to DJ Lenno was now commercially accepted.

“Based on my success as a DJ, I felt there was a need for an injection of big glam and excitement in R&B as there was with dance and house events….. If urban music had to appeal to the masses in Australia, it needed to be packaged and showcased in such a way that even the most hardened Sceptic would embrace its universal flavour... I therefore focused on delivering in my live sets, a vibe and experience that was nothing less than hands in the air excitement……”

DJ Lenno delivers on the excitement factor, with shows that are nothing less than hands in the air euphoria taken from his unique music programming and interactive crowd involvement.

Head to head, no other urban DJ in Australia can claim to hold the talent or experience that he does ….. It’s that simple. “He is not just a DJ; he is the legend that has helped pioneer an Australian industry….” Fatman Scoop 2004

In all, the Gospel according to the Godfather is simple. “Urban music is about expressing your culture. It doesn’t matter where you’re from, what you like to wear, or what you like to listen to, we all have a story to tell. Urban music allows you to express that story and most importantly listen and appreciate the story of others. We always have a lesson to learn. Urban music makes that learning, a lot more fun.”

Lenno’s music will inspire you, conjure your emotions, and most importantly shake your booty- “……. As a result of my fortunate musical experiences, it doesn’t matter where I perform around the world…. I am always quality confident…. That I will rock your party…..” The Godfather 2008
