What's good world??? I was born in Jamaica Queens and moved to South
Side Queens when I was 8 years old. I've been living there for the
last 17 years. I'm a focused, hard working individual, and yes, I do
hustle hard for that paper. I've been a dj since age 17. I bought a
$16,000 dj set, cash, when I was 18, and started doing mixtapes at age
20. I am the owner of Vinyl Villanz Inc., an entertainment company I
started in 2004. We handle business for artists Royal & Promise (R.A.P). We also handle flyer production and cd duplication. Currently, I am a member of the 5 time Justo's Mixtape Award winning dj team, Noize Mob, and Bum Squad DJs as well. I also formed The Elite, a promo team formed primarily for the clubs. I'm still on my g-rind, handling business everyday, every hour...hustlas don't sleep, they take naps. In the entertainment game, you have to work 10 times as hard as the next man to make it...I'm not looking for a shortcut...Hardwork...that's the only way to see success in anything you
do. Welcome to MY SPACE!
DJ HPNOTIQ
DJ HPNOTIQ̢۪s career as a DJ began at the age of 17 when his friend got a cd mixer set for Christmas in 1999. Due to a settlement from a hit and run car accident, which nearly claimed his life in 1990 when he was only 8, DJ HPNOTIQ was able to buy his own dj set at the age of 18 in 2000. His equipment included a pair of Technic 1200 series turntables, and a number of amps and speakers. Having one of the largest DJ sets in his neighborhood, he became his neighborhood's go-to dj. In 2003 he got into doing clubs such as Club A in Queens, Tabu in Long Island, & Babalu̢۪s in Manhattan. After making a couple of trips to labels such as Def Jam, Interscope, & Atlantic Records, he realized that he needed more promotion & began doing mixtapes. In 2005, he had mastered the ins and outs of the mixtape game, and he built his reputation on doing that. Understanding that consistency is the key to success, he was dropping mixtapes rapidly. One thing that seperates DJ Hpnotiq from a lot of others in the mixtape game is that he can really dj. Gradually, DJ Hpnotiq was becoming a household mixtape name.
In 2006 DJ Hpnotiq connected with artists such as Juelz Santana, Jim Jones, Sheek Louch, Fredro Starr, Ice-T, Redman, David Banner, Memphis Bleek, and Papoose, and that’s just to name a few. He caught the attention of Fredro Starr from the legendary rap group Onyx, who heard a mixtape he hosted, and was asked to host his artist's first mixtape. Fredro told him, “When I heard how you hosted that mixtape, I was like, wow, I gotta get him to host our joint�.
In November of 2006 his friend DJ Woogie, Philly General of Bum Squad DJs, asked him to join and put him down with Bum Squad DJs. In January 2007 he joined the Noize Mob DJs. Noize Mob won the Justo Award for best DJ team 5 times in a row. Other DJs on Noize Mob are DJ Chuck T, Superstar Jay, and Love Dinero just to name a few.
Although a DJ, Hpnotiq is also a businessman. He has his own entertainment, Vinyl Villanz Inc., and is dealing with a couple of up & coming artists, who he promotes and manages. He̢۪s putting in work, paying his dues, and has his mind set on becoming one of the music industry̢۪s greatest djs.
