Currently the youngest on-air mixer in the nation, you can catch him spinning live week nights on 100.3 the Beat’s popular “Kendra G Show.” You can also hear DJ Damage amp up the “Friday Knockout Show” on Temple University’s student run radio station W.HI.P. or witness him holding down the hottest parties on college campuses and clubs throughout the country. He’s been cosigned by legendary DJs: Drama, Omega, Jay-Ski, Touchtone among others, pegged the “Hottest DJ in the Hood” and is self-proclaimed “King of Temple University.”

With his growing popularity, DJ Damage’s success thus far is remarkable due to the challenges he’s been able to overcome along the way. Adopted at three months by his lovely mother, Adrienne Stokes, DJ Damage (born Abdul-Quddas Muhammad) was raised in the rough environment of North Philadelphia. Growing up, Damage and his brother FESE were inspired by the work of Will Smith (the Fresh Prince) and DJ Jazzy Jeff. But while FESE set-out to be a rapper, Damage struggled to find his way at first. In 2004, when his family underwent financial hardship, he resorted to selling drugs to help make ends meet. He quickly learned it was not the route for him and began honing his skills on the one’s and two’s.

In middle school Damage linked up with classmate DJ Young Shizz who helped teach him the basics of DJing. Soon after– at only thirteen– Damage was creating quite a buzz throughout the city; winning over skeptical high-school crowds, packing basement parties on weekends and all the while making considerable amounts of money. Today, he prides himself on being an original. Unlike many of his peers, he does not rely on pre-mixed songs and mp3 players, but uses his sharp musical ear, great song selection and timing to keep the crowd moving.

Enrolled at Temple University as a Broadcasting Telecommunications and Mass Media major, Damage somehow manages to maintain a 3.0 GPA while keeping up with his demanding career. “I never thought success would come easy,” he says, crediting his hard-working mother for instilling a strong work ethic in him. When he’s not putting it down on the turntables, the business-minded DJ is building his brand online. He communicates with fans through blogging, videos and his web series “The Damage Report.” He is also CEO of entertainment group Stay-Wit-It Ent and recently started a crew called Da Skratch Addictz with local DJs Amir and Macky.

Never missing a beat, Damage he is gearing up for the “Kollateral Damage” tour where he’ll be DJing live at over twenty colleges; with performances from artist such as Meek Millz, Wiz Khalifa and Wale. In the future, an ambitious Damage hopes to broaden his career as a radio show host and give back by starting a non-profit after school program teaching young people media technology.

Humble, yet hungry, the young DJ stays grounded despite his many achievements and constantly strives to take his career to the next level. Armed with a winning personality, driven nature and poised for greatness, it’s safe to assume the best is yet to come for DJ Damage, just stay tuned!

For the past few years, DJ GregNitty has been presented with that task and has delivered. As a DJ for 100.3 The Beat in Philadelphia he is in prime position to take the reigns as the areas best mixer. Rocking out everyday on the radio at 5 pm, his music is the party that gets thousands of listeners to forget about their the stress of their workday. It is a melodic journey filled with energy that can’t be duplicated by any of his competitors.

If we are talking about clubs, not only is he responsible for ushering a pied piper-like crowd to clubs during the live broadcast he mixes at every Friday. But once the crowd is there, you would think it rained in club because people are so drenched in sweat. You know how the DJ plays that one song that you can catch your breath on and take a break during the party? Well those songs are not played during a GregNitty party. He is one of the rare DJs who understands he is responsible for not only changing records, but changing lives.

How do you feel when you walk out a party and the DJ killed it? It can truly make a person weak. For those few hours, you forget about the trials and tribulations that life can bring but instead embrace and celebrate it. Those DJs are rare. Gone are the days when a DJ could just “spin records.” They are supposed to take people into a world where the music takes to a favorite memory or unforgettable time. That’s DJ GregNitty. That’s my DJ. Let the party begin!!!

Kendra “G” began her radio career while attending Hampton University. Upon graduating from Hampton, she landed her first commercial radio job in her home state Connecticut with WZMX Hot 93.7. Utilizing her outstanding people skills and her sense of humor to entertain her listeners every weekend, she immediately impressed the Program Director who, in turn, made her the main fill-in jock for the full-time air staff. Within months her hilarious comments and her “tell it like it is” personality made her a well known name in Connecticut. It was only a matter of time before Kendra “G” would naturally be entertaining listeners on a daily basis. That time came in November of 2003.

For over a year, Kendra “G” took Buffalo, New York by storm! Saying what she felt to entertain and inform her listeners every evening on 93.7 WBLK. Her evening show was the undisputedly #1 evening show in WNY and with opportunities like interviewing Grammy award winning artist such as Alicia Keys, or even dancing with Usher in front of 30,000 people in Toronto, Canada, it was evident that her radio career was only going to get better.

And better it did! Kendra became the energetic voice in the morning as she co-host the TREY THE CHOCOLATE JOCK MORNING JUMP-OFF on POWER 92 in Chicago.
