Today we are featuring a DJ who is known world wide and goes by the name DJ Era. This Los Angeles native has taken he country by storm by deejaying for major artists like singer Monica, August Alsina, J Holiday, Sean Garrett, Lloyd, Nipsey Hussle and more. Born Kevin Cox, he got his start in the business by hanging out by the DJ booths at the local parties and clubs he would attend. He decided to try turntables out for himself and landed whatever local gigs he could find around Atlanta while attending Morehouse college.
