DJ P, hailing from Springfield, MO is this year’s winner of BET’s “Master of the Mix” competition. DJ P beat out ten other nationally and internationally recognized DJs to become Season 2’s winner, with a prize of $250,000. DJ P’s party-rocking hip-hop productions have established him as a legend in the underground DJ community. He is widely considered one of the pioneers of “blending,” more commonly known as “mash up”. What sets DJ P apart from the many hip-hop DJs out there is his technical cutting and scratching skills, combined with a unique song selection that moves and excites crowds. He draws on vast musical knowledge and utilizes all types of genres in his creations; from 80s New Wave, to alternative rock, to drum and bass, and of course, classic and relevant hip-hop.

Diamond D
Hip-hop legend Diamond D, originally DJ Jazzy Jay, has been honing his beat making and turntable skills since the late 1980s. Over the years, Diamond D has worked with some of the game’s most acclaimed artists such as A Tribe Called Quest, The Fugees, Jay-Z, and Busta Rhymes. His work as a producer has earned him a Grammy and recent live performances have been met with live crowds and rave reviews.
