Philly Chili Bowl’s hostess with the mostess

If you were to look for AfroDJiak, in the party, you would probably find her rocking out in the DJ booth, bobbing her head, probably scratching, and making her hands do that wiki, wiki, wiki thing deejays do.  However, at our 5th Annual Philly Chili Bowl, the wiki, wiki transforms to chili, chili when the deejay/radio personality emerges from behind the booth to host, provide spicy commentary, and present our coveted, one-of-a-kind trophy to the winner(s.)  

Raised in the DC Metro area and calling our city home, AfroDJiak has been a constant fixture in the Philly nightlife scene for several years.  Her creative standout mixes such as last month’s Fock Luve V.2, have propelled her to being one of the most sought after turntablists, spinning numerous high profile film and music festivals like, The Root’s Picnic, and Wawa’s Welcome America 4th of July celebration.  Her exceptional mixing skills, extensive knowledge of music, engineering​, stage, and music production have also allowed her to spin opening sets for artists such as Black Thought, The Cool Kids, The Money Makin’ Jam Boys, Freeway, and Wale to name a few.  But we don’t need to  name drop to tell you she’s good, just come out March 23rd and see for yourself!
