Charity Gala + Dancing With DJ D-Nice

DJ-D-Nice-Pierre-Hotel

With a Party Profile in Vogue Magazine – we produced DJ D-Nice (Entertainer Of The Year at the 52nd NAACP Image Awards) at The Pierre Hotel in NYC for Memorial Sloan Kettering Benefit Gala.

The Society of Memorial Sloan Kettering gala featured a performance of the fantasic DJ D-Nice.

“Celebrations were in order, and renowned DJ D-Nice delighted patrons with a setlist fit for dancing. The soiree’s efforts raised over $2 million, preserving MSK’s long-standing tradition of advancing cancer prevention, detection, and treatment.”

~ Vogue Magazine

I am increasingly asked to bring offers to celebrity level DJs for upscale, black tie charity event galas. When a nonprofit mentions the after dinner entertainemnt is a celebrity DJ… there is a revelation in the message … “this is not your parent’s charity gala”

About DJ D-Nice

A proven talent behind the turntables, D-Nice sought a creative outlet in famed downtown clubs such as Lotus and Table 50 where pioneering DJs like Mark Ronson and Q-Tip performed. The venues, with music blending old-school tracks and dance classics with the latest rock, soon became his home away from home, and it wasn’t long before he made a name for himself with a style unlike anyone else. Suddenly, the MC from uptown was the hottest DJ downtown—and around the world. From Oscar® night galas to the Superbowl, from Essence Fest to the legendary private parties thrown by Diddy, D-Nice can now be heard in Cannes, Singapore, South Africa, and Miami.

He has rocked the Apollo Theater Spring Gala with Stevie Wonder and is a brand DJ for Hennessy, holds a DJ residency at Atlantic City Borgata Hotel Casino, and has held the distinct honor of spinning multiple times at the request of President Barack Obama (including the President’s Inaugural Ball).
