Dj Chalant

“I love the connection with people that music affords us .I want to continue creating events & spaces for that to continue.”

Chalant is a multi-hyphenate creative who has planted seeds in different realms within the media and entertainment industry.

Chalant began Djing after becoming influenced by the history the “DeeJay” played in the creation of Hip-Hop culture, and after witnessing a live DJ set by the legendary “DJ Premier” while attending a beatmaking convention in NYC. “I just got really inspired to try it (DJing)”. “ I was already a rapper, and a producer, so at first learning to DJ was something I wanted to do strictly for fun”. Chalant began spinning house and block parties in the neighborhood. This soon led to him and a group of friends organizing and hosting parties at small bars and lounges in DC.
