Music is not what I do, It is who I am"

 

Chris “DJ Slice” Rodriguez born February 2, 1985 in Camden New Jersey, raised by a single grandmother who moved him to Wildwood New Jersey hoping for a better life. 

 

From a young age, Chris learned the life of the streets and had to find a way to escape the harsh realities of violence, gang life, and domestic abuse,  just to name a few. So he spent all of his days with his headphones on, getting lost in his music, listening to Freestyle, Hip Hop, R&B, country, oldies, and rock. Music was his passion, and his saving grace. 

 

“When I perform, my music takes me to a place where I can be myself without judgement or fear. I am never afraid to break the boundaries and I love creating mixes by melding different genres together. When I play music, I get to see how the audience appreciates my talents. Music sets people free, and I’m overcome with joy knowing that my life has a purpose by enriching the lives of others."
