Personal life
DJ Jamad is an innovator.
Music
When Jamad was 10 years old he was taking trumpet lessons. He soon lost interest in it, but still had a passion for music from an early age on. As a kid he was recording radio stations and learned how to be a DJ by copying what others did. His first DJ Gig in a Club was in 1990. To this day he has released over 50 records.
His main mixtape series is called Afromentals.
DJ Jamad also produces the Afromentals Mixshow, a long-standing weekly radio show on Sirius Satellite. Periodically, he presents Operation Hot Combs (OHC), a one-hour “guest takeover” that airs during the mixshow. These special segments allow artists, producers, and DJs an opportunity to guest host and promote their individual projects and talents while giving listeners a candid view of the featured entertainers and their personal musical interests.[2]
