DJ G-Spot

DJ G-Spot is one of the hardest working DJs in the Midwest. His motto is "To be the best at what I do." What exactly does he do. G-Spot holds it down with mixshows on WBLK in Buffalo, NY, www.energyradio.fm and www.royal-radio.com. G-Spot also gets busy at the hottest nightclubs in Cleveland, OH every week and keeps his name in the streets with the gulliest mix CDs.

Music has been a priority for G-Spot as long as he can remember. "I have been DJing over half my life. I started in the basement when I was 12". His mother purchased his first set of Gemini turntables and spinning at his 8th Grade Graduation was his first official party. Then he moved on to proms, graduations, and the college party circuit and eventually became one of the most well known DJs in Chicago. While he was spinning at one infamous Windy City club, he met Sam Sylk, who was there hosting the club for WGCI. Sam and G immediately clicked and formed a fast friendship. Sam was actually relocating from Chicago to Cleveland, Ohio to work at WENZ. Sam was so impressed with G's skills he offered him the chance to tag along and work at WENZ with him. G decided to take a chance and "fulfill a life long dream"

However, when G first arrived in Cleveland it took a minute for him to become an on air personality. In the meantime he did everything and anything at the station. G-Spot worked as a Board Operator, in the promotions department, a weekend mixer, he did overnight slots and finally in 2000 he was a full-fledged on-air personality/mixer working 6 nights a week. G-Spot learned some of his most valuable lessons while at WENZ, "I touched every aspect of the (radio) game. I learned you can never be one-sided and you have to always consider everyone's musical tastes. The best way to stay in touch with the streets is to make sure to stay in the public, go out to the clubs."

From his humble radio roots G-Spot has expanded to a variety of mixshows in two different markets. You can listen to his show Monday through Friday with the Magic Ride @ 5 on WBLK Buffalo, New York.

One of his best and worst experiences was with rap music's current king, Jay-Z. "I opened for Jay on the Blueprint Tour and it gave me a chance to meet Jay and work with him. But there were a million egos on the stage and everyone wanted to be the man." The soft-spoken G-Spot is more content to let his work ethic speak for him than to brag about himself. For years he's been getting recognized for his excellent skills as a mix master. He was nominated in 2001 & 2004 for the Mid West DJ of the Year at the Mix Show Power Summit. In 2003 and 2004, he won Mid-West DJ of the Year at Just O's Mixtape Awards and in 2003, he won the Cleveland Scene Music Award for DJ of the Year. DJ G-Spot was also the 2004 Official DJ for the Coors Distribution Convention in Honolulu. He has also been inducted in Whoo Kid's Shadyville DJ Crew, Core DJ's, LXG & Pure Pain.

G wants to start doing A&R for labels and promoting more records. Revealing a small portion of his master plan he says, "I come across so much new talent as a DJ. I want to use my mix CDs to push new artists and send those to other labels." He's currently working with one of his good friends, Eddie Bauer, who also happens to be the drive time on-air personality and Music Director at WENZ. G-Spot knows he's destined to be the next big thing in hip-hop. "If he can sell in Cleveland he can sell anywhere. He's one of the best raw talents I've ever heard." Besides all this G-Spot still manages to make a new mix CD every month, deejay clubs throughout the Mid-West area and he listens to every single record he gets. In 2004, DJ G-Spot launched globalmixtapes.com which features mix CD's from the top deejays in the U.S. He also has a house music label, SolFreek Records with DJ Sincere of Houston.

"I bust my butt to make it happen, I'm always working. If I'm not working, I'm asleep but I don't sleep very often." In addition to his busy radio schedule he keeps himself accessible to the public as the resident urban DJ at The Spy Bar on Friday Nights & Kaos Nightclub on Saturday Nights. G Spot also produces Mix CDs (Reggae, Neo-Soul, Rap, Old School, Slow Jams etc.) and promotes records. The music industry better be ready because the hardest working DJ in the Midwest is about to take over the world.
