CNB Business News: DJ Drewski the New "It Boy"
Wednesday, February 25, 2015
There’s a new “it boy” over at Hot 97. DJ and radio personality Drewski, “The Mayor of New Jersey” is the new voice of over-night, and can now be heard weeknights from Midnight to 5 AM.
He is one of the few DJs in the tri-state area who is focused on pushing the success of local Jersey artists. He helped organize the first Jersey focused Hot 97's Who's Next which featured local artists including Kazzie, Dougie F., Fetty Wap, and KC Bandz.
Drewski previously provided the soundtrack to the rush hour drive home during the 3-7 slot as producer of The Cipha Sounds Show and was the former producer for Angie Martinez during her time at Hot.
You may have also caught Drewski on VH1 as a star in the reality show This is Hot 97, or during his stints DJing for BET’s 106 & Park. A beast on the turn-tables, Drewski has DJed and produced for hip-hop heavy-weights like Jim Jones, Maino, 2 Chainz, and Pusha T. He has also spun records for major events such as Dave Chappelle’s 40thBirthday Party and Jennifer Lopez’s album release party.
He is currently part of #TheMVMT with Cipha Sounds, a movement to support local tri-state acts. You can also hear him spinning every Friday Night at 9:00 PM at UCB East for Cipha Sounds’ smash hip-hop improv show Take it Personal.
Looking forward, Drewski is already expanding his brand into other areas of urban lifestyle with his New Jersey apparel brand available through DJDrewski.com.
