Club Vibe Artist Watch: Ready D

He won the SADMC Championships four times and also won the DJ of the Decade award. He competed twice in the world DJ championships and finished in the top ten both times. Various publications rate him amongst the top 30 hip hop DJs in the world.

Best known as the DJ for (POC) Prophets of the City, he toured Europe extensively with POC for a period of six years and performed alongside groups like Public Enemy, Fugees, Ice T, Spearhead, James Brown, Rob Swift, Steve D, Will Smith, Black Eyed Peas, DJ Spinna, Jazzy Jeff, etc.

Apart from performing in clubs, Ready D took the art of hip hop DJing into many areas where it was unknown, including big music events around South Africa such as the Ice Festival, Synergy, Camel Experience, Oppikoppi and the KKNK Festival (a week-long tour into rural and underprivileged areas where most of the community do not have electricity), Woodstock Festival, Alex Groll International Inline Skating Championships, Redbull Downhill Extreme Champs, Grahamstown Jazz Festival, North Sea Jazz Festival and various trade and expo shows.

These days he can be heard daily on GoodHope FM’s ‘The Ready D Show’ and seen on the hit Channel O show Mzansi Rides.
