Born in the East but raised in the West, DJ JAM got his inspiration to be a DJ when he was only thirteen 13 years old. Jam's brother-in-law bought him his first turntables and mixer from a friend who was visiting from NYC. JAM had experimented with playing the trumpet, drums, keyboard and guitar throughout his elementary, middle and high school years. Now he had a new instrument to learn; two turntables and a mixer. Fast forward to 2009, DJ Jam is now the official DJ for Snoop Dogg, Dr. Dre and Warren G.
