About
DJ Forerunner is an Open Format DJ from Lexington, KY by way of Cincinnati, Ohio. He doesn’t stick to any particular script or formula when it comes to spinning records. You can hear DJ Forerunner Monday - Friday on Lexington’s Hot 102.5 during the “Hot Drive at 5”. Also Hang out with Forerunner on Saturdays 8p – midnight and Sundays 7p – Midnight! By the age of 10, DJ Forerunner already had a grasp on Hip-Hop, Funk, Rock, Soul, Pop & R&B and you can hear those influences when he’s performing. DJ Forerunner mixes lyrics and melodies to create a one-of-a-kind experience. He’s always had an ear for music and always kept a rhythm in some form or fashion. He started off playing a variety of instruments as a child. In High School he became very involved as a drummer and continues to play to this day. The drumming skills he learned allowed him to easily transition to doing some music production in his late teens. But it wasn’t until the combination of watching a DJ Jazzy Jeff Video on YouTube and DJing his first event in college that he knew what he wanted to do with his life. You can hear him playing anything from today's hottest in Pop & Hip-Hop to Classic dance tracks of the 70s and 80s. Inspired by some of the pioneers of the art he brings their style, showmanship and professionalism every time he touches the turntables. In addition to radio, you can catch him playing for weddings, clubs & private events. He also works with a variety of Corporate brands big and small. A few of the companies he works with include: National Basketball Association (NBA), TopGolf, Toyota and University of Kentucky.

DJ Forerunner was great. He was early and ready to go by event time. A true professional and played music based on what the crowd was interested in hearing.

We hired DJ Forerunner for a Corporate Event, he showed up at the time he said he would, he played soft music during dinner just as we had requested. He did a great job motivating people to get on the dance floor. Everyone I've spoke to said he did a great job! If it's up to me, I will definitely hire him again! Thank you DJ Forerunner!

DJ Forerunner provided music for our Christian College Spring Dance (mostly pop and throwback songs with some of his own flair). He was comfortable, professional, and I had multiple students tell me how great he was all throughout the dance. The content was a little more "colorful" than I hoped for in a couple places, but I'm a stick in the mud and our students were thrilled so I have no complaints.
