Brooklyn, New York, United States
Brooklyn born and raised, this native son of New York began DJing in 1990. Butta Brown honed his skills doing the New York City college party circuit where he developed a following. His first big break came in 1995 when he began opening parties for Harlem’s own DJ Craig G, now on HOT 93.1 in Connecticut. Under Craig G’s guidance, Butta Brown further built his reputation by playing larger scale events and 5000 seat capacity concerts. In 1997, Butta Brown was the headliner DJ for Jay Z’s first sold out Brooklyn appearance at Aristocrat Manor. His talent, passion and love of the art form allowed him the opportunity to play alongside DJ legends including Kid Capri, Red Alert, Africa Bambatta, Luv Bug Starski, S&S, Biz Markie, Funkmaster Flex and Enuff. As his popularity rose, Butta Brown also began to attract attention from other artists, DJS and media Queen, Wendy Williams. And in 2003, his hard work earned him a nomination as the Best R&B Mixtape DJ at the Justo Mixtape DJ Awards. Not co
