Go DJ

by Priest Covington, Tavaress Anderson (Illustrator)

"Enthusiastic!" "Young!" "Star-ready!" These are just a few words that best describe DJ Priest, the 11-year-old DJ who was born in Nashville, TN but is currently living in Atlanta, GA with his mother and little brother Power. He has navigated through the music ranks to become one of the premiere DJs within a short period of time and now he plans to do the same within the literary world. He has written his first book, GO DJ, to show other young kids that through determination and hard work anything is possible. Being a youth himself, he is always in search of giving back to those who are less fortunate. "I feel if I can enjoy myself, I want those who are unfortunate to enjoy themselves as well," he said. With routine sets at the Boys and Girls Clubs in Atlanta and participating in Big Boi [Outkast] Annual Events, which contribute to youths in Atlanta, he has established 'role model status' and wants to prove that giving back is a priority. Another one of his accomplishments include his annual toy drive. Look for the upcoming series of children's books penned by the young author, DJ Priest. www.djpriest.net
