This week, we sit down with one of Richmond's most recognizable voices and DJs, DJ Kobe! 🎶🎤 From hosting a syndicated morning radio show heard across multiple cities to keeping TCR CLUB's dance floor packed every Saturday night, Kobe shares the incredible journey that took him from upstate New York radio intern to RVA nightlife staple.

We first connected with Kobe through Instagram, but after seeing him absolutely crush it at Daft Disco (GBH Events) at Ember Music Hall, we knew we had to get him on the show. The energy was electric, the dance floor was packed, and the vibes were unforgettable. ⚡🪩
