ies – UCT. The pioneering African DJ collective has it’s roots within the Cape Town hip hop culture that emerged in the early 80’s and the group has officially formed in 1999 after Ready D’s successful career as a battle DJ competing in the prestigious Technics DMC’s locally and abroad in the US, London and France. Beat Bangaz are a multi genre DJ crew with individual music tastes and deck wrecking skills. Combining these qualities are the ingredients for a longstanding collective career which spans almost three decades. Seeing the three mix, scratch and work together as a unit gives the live audience a unique visual and audio experience
Deeply rooted in Hip Hop culture gives the crew the opportunity to easily cross music genres during sets – taking the audience on a non stop music journey.

With a track record consolidated in international tours, radio, television, seminars and workshops - makes Beat Bangaz a unique South African DJ collective.

Wayback Wednesday to the Beat Bangaz era — countless hours in the lab, digging, cutting, blending, teaching, learning and building a culture that raised us. From vinyl to digital, from bedroom sessions to worldwide stages — this was (and still is) more than music. It’s community. It’s legacy. It’s love. 🎛️🔥

Throwback Tuesday to the Beat Bangaz era — countless hours in the lab, digging, cutting, blending, teaching, learning and building a culture that raised us. From vinyl to digital, from bedroom sessions to worldwide stages — this was (and still is) more than music. It’s community. It’s legacy. It’s love. 🎛️🔥

Video addendum for my post as it relates to Beat Bangaz....As I reflect on 50 revolutions around the sun, it’s impossible not to pause and give flowers to The Beat Bangaz — the crew that has been both family and foundation. 💫

From the late nights in the lab to the countless gigs, battles, and classes, this outfit has always represented more than just DJing. It’s been about purpose, passion, and pushing culture forward. Every scratch, blend, and beat carried a piece of our story — a shared vision rooted in love for the craft and the city that raised us. Even after all these years, I’m still in awe of the drive, talent, and heart each member brings. This reflection is not just a look back — it’s a salute to the legacy we continue to build. 🙏🏽
Here’s to the beats, the brotherhood, and the bond that continues to inspire. ❤️

Happy birthday to our own DJ E-20…more love blessings and prosperity 🙏
