He’s the DJ who skyrocketed to fame and became one of the most sought-after names in America, spinning tracks at some of the biggest events around. The DJ has brought his energy to celebrity weddings—like Beyonce’s—and even performed at high-profile moments such as President Barack Obama’s 2009 inauguration. Over the years, he’s not just been a turntable master; he’s also stepped into the spotlight with original music. Tracks like “Calling All Hearts” and “Future Is Mine” showcase his range beyond the decks. Since 2014, the DJ has dropped five original singles, proving his staying power in the industry.
Before all the glitz and glamour, he got his start while still in high school, deejaying at New York nightclubs during his senior year. His big break came when he was discovered by music mogul Sean Combs while working at the iconic Manhattan club Lotus. That moment changed everything. Born Cassidy Durango Milton Willy Podell, he carries on a family legacy rooted in music—his father, Jonny Podell, is a well-known music agent. On the personal side, he’s been linked to former Danity Kane singer Aubrey O’Day, adding another layer to his public story. From underground sets to national stages, this DJ continues to shape the sound of modern events—all while building a name that resonates across the industry.
He’s often recognized for his unique stage presence, and one standout detail is that he sometimes performs with a 24-carat gold microphone—talk about making a statement. Over the years, he has worked with several artists, but one notable collaboration came in 2017 when he joined forces with rapper Lil Yachty. That project really showcased his versatility, proving once again that he knows how to bring something fresh to the table. Whether it’s through bold accessories or dynamic partnerships, he continues to leave a mark.
