If you are looking for a DJ-hire C. J. I planned my daughter's wedding in in 6 weeks! I found CJ on thumbtack and hired him based on his reviews. I was not disappointed. He was very professional, responsive and punctual. He is also very detailed oriented and sent me videos with timing of the songs we selected to make sure we were on the same page. No surprises- it was perfect. I plan many events for clients. C. J. is a pleasure to work with. I will definitely reach out to him again.

Details: Wedding • Fewer than 25 guests • 31 - 50 years old • 51 or older • Top 40 • R&B / soul • Outdoor venue • MC services

I have nothing but the absolute HIGHEST of praise for DJ CJ. Working with CJ was an incredible experience and I would HIGHLY recommend him to anyone looking for a personalized music experience. My 30th birthday bash would not have been the same without his DJ magic! I feel so grateful to have found him. CJ was incredibly professional and detail-oriented throughout our entire experience. He responded to my messages quickly and was in high communication with me every step of the way. I hired him last minute, and even on a short time frame he went above and beyond to create a personalize playlist for me. He provided me with the final playlist ahead of time, and even made a short video of him so I could see his DJ set up, lights, and get a taste of the final mixed playlist (as well as his cheerful energy and dancing!). His enthusiasm for this work and dedication to making a personalized experience for me shined through from our very first contact and throughout our experience together. The night of the party, he delivered exactly what I was hoping for- and even more! He arrived early and promptly set up his space. The music sound was top quality and his lights created the perfect dance vibe. He curated an impeccable playlist, mixing together the songs I had provided him with seamless transitions. He read the energy of the room throughout the night to provide the best possible dance experience and to keep the positive energy alive. Countless guests kept telling me all night "Oh my gosh this DJ is SO amazing, where did you find him!?" By the end of the night he had a room full of new fans- everyone absolutely loved him. His energy, warmth, enthusiasm, and positivity were truly touching, not to mention his exceptional professionalism and quality of work. The party would not have been the same without him and I plan to hire him again in the future (as do a number of my friends!). I could not recommend DJ CJ more. You will not regret working with him! Thanks for everything, CJ.

Details: Birthday party • 25 - 49 guests • 18 - 30 years old • 31 - 50 years old • Pop • Hip-hop / Rap • R&B / soul • Top 40 • Funk / disco • Home • Lighting

The first thing coach CJ told me is that I can sing and I can be a better singer. I'm in middle age and never thought I will learn how to sing. I'm the only one in the family who doesn't know how to sing and felt embarrassed whenever I sing. I searched online to find the perfect person to teach me in the field of singing and found CJ. I connected with him right away. The words of encouragement he gave me are phenomenal. He's very professional and his approach to teaching is non-judgmental. His Strategic teaching in singing is based on how his student can improve their singing. I learned so fast from the voice lesson practice he gave me and learned how to apply it when I sing. I still need more practice and need many more things to learn in singing. I'm confident enough that with the help of couch CJ my dream of becoming a better singer will soon come true.
