DJ L Boog Music Makes You Loose Control!

Detroit is fueled by music, so much so, that when you get in your car and turn on your radio and hear a hype song, you instantly go from 55 miles per hour to 80, in under 10 seconds flat. Feel good music is the best music and when you’re ready to get loose and shake what ya mama gave ya, you head down to the hottest club, where the DJ is sensationally dope and keeps the crowd jumping until the last call. DJ L Boog does just that, and I had the opportunity to sit down with him to find out what set’s him apart from all the other DJ’s in the “D”. Larry, who goes by the name DJ L Boog, isn’t just your stand still; sit behind the turn table’s kind of guy. His passion and love for music and desire for people to have a good time, is what keeps his crowd hype, up out of their seats and on their feet.

Douglas H. Everett once said “There are some people, who live in a dream world, and there are some face reality; a then there are those who turn one into the other.” DJ L Boog sought after his dream of deejaying and turned it into his now, phenomenal reality. Before DJ L Boog evolved into the DJ that he is today, his now vision was inspired by his middle school teacher. He told me that everything that they did in his teachers class was catered to music an arts, and one day his teacher brought some turn table’s into the classroom and DJ L Boog instantly went “wow, turntables, what is this?” Once his teacher showed him how to mix and blend on those turntables, he had no idea how much Deejaying would become apart of his future. Because his parents wouldn’t purchase him turntables of his own, he was fortune enough to have someone be married into his family who was a DJ from New York and allowed him to use his equipment to practice on, and from that moment on, his fascination of turntables turned into his hobby and grew into what he loves to do most full time.

His first gig came at a coincidence; he was doing security at the Black Well center in Highland Park, where they gave high school parties for the young teenagers. At that time they were having issues with their DJ and they were in need of another one. DJ L Boog’s told his aunt who had a contract at the Blackwell center that he deejayed and she decided to give him a shot. That one shot landed him a six month gig deejaying for the local high school parties at the Black Well center.

When asked what sets him apart from all the other DJ’s in Detroit, he told me that it was his energy and his interaction with the crowd. Since he DJ’s every Thursday night at Ignite inside of MGM on ballroom night, he’s able to interact more with the crowd, and he’s able to get out on the floor and ballroom and hustle with the crowd. But what truly set’s DJ.L. Boog apart from all the other DJ’s in Detroit is him being nominated and winning best DJ, by the Detroit Young Professional’s. To receive recognition from your peers and friends for something you love to do is an amazing thing, but to receive an award for your talent means somebody is truly paying attention. DJ L. Boog was surprised when he found out that he was even nominated and when he won, it was such a humbling experience. This opportunity has open even more doors for the talented DJ, so much so, that in 5 years he see’s him self going global. He doesn’t just want to be known as a local Detroit DJ, but he also wants to be known worldwide. DJ L Boog, wants’ to be able to inspire other people to do what they love to do as well and seek out their dreams and passions.

Lot’s of people look at DJ’s as someone who just spins records, but it’s much more to it, than that. In order to be the best you have to ensure that you stay ten steps ahead of the game and just like anything else; DJ’s have to study and practice their craft too. However, you may look at it; DJ’s have to study & research new music and new artist. It can become an grueling process at times however, it takes time and preparations to be able to play what’s hot now, all the while keeping them informed on music that hasn’t even been played on the radio yet.

Boog three nights a week at MGM Grand Detroit at U, Me, Drink and at Ignite on Thursdays on ball rooming night.
