Selector. Storyteller. Soundsystem.

Dame Tha DJ behind the decks Behind the decks Chicago, IL

Dame Tha DJ moves between genres without losing the room — a Chicago sound built on energy, taste, and timing.

From corner bars to brand activations, every set is designed to peak. Hip-hop into afrobeats, R&B into house, a Jay-Z deep cut into a slow-burn soul finish — every transition is a moment, every drop earns its place.

Catch the residencies every Monday at Licorice Lounge, every Saturday at Lloyd's, and every other Thursday at O'Rourke's Office on Chicago's South Side. Based in Chicago, booking worldwide for clubs, private events, weddings, and brand activations.
