DJ

DJ Clay was hands-down the best DJ that I’ve actually come across in a long time. He was there on time. He started off with great music, kept the crowd going and made sure that the crowd was willing to participate and engage singing and dancing, etc. Definitely had a beautiful beautiful birthday because of him when you book with him, make you have comfortable shoes cause he’s gonna have you dancing!!!! Thanks again Mikal!!!! More...

DJ Mikal Clay did a great job getting people up out their seats and on to the dance floor. He played a variety of music for my 50th Birthday party that kept everyone dancing all night long. He was so good two of my aunts whom never dance was out on the dance floor dancing. Everyone had an amazing time and enjoyed the music. DJ Mikal Clay is definitely who you should book for your next event. More...

DJ

Dj Mikal was luckily able to attend our NYE Event at restaurant: Osteria by Fabio Viviani, located in Downers Grove, IL.
He made the experience for all the guests wonderful. It was definitely an exciting way to begin the New Year! He had great music, engaged with the audience, and always had a smile on his face. We are happy we booked him. Would recommend him for any special event.

My sister said, “I’ll ask a member of my staff to DJ my niece’s party.” My reply, “Uh-no!” and “I’ve got the perfect DJ in mind! ” While it was my daughter’s golden 12th birthday celebration, I wanted to create a memorable experience for everyone. I had in mind Mikal Clay, a fire DJ, whom I knew could accomplish the goal of creating the celebratory atmosphere that I wanted.

Mikal is incredibly talented and has a natural gift for connecting with people through music and conversation. At my daughter’s party, he took us down memory lane with R&B hits (some of my personal favorites) and brought us forward to Hip-Hop greats that all the kids loved! What’s more, Mikal (aka, “the Prince of House Music”) rounded out the celebration with the best in Disco and House Music.

Did I say it was my daughter’s party?! Well…it ended up being a wonderful dance party and celebration for ALL!

Noteworthy is Mikal demonstrated professionalism through timely arrival at the event and had appropriate interaction with guests - he was fun!

My final comment: Mikal exceeded my expectations and you will do well to let him exceed yours!

I really enjoyed the music especially the old school music mixed with the new . He everybody dancing and singing. It brought back happy memories for me , I highly reccomend Mikai

21 October 2022

Well what can I say in a few words…I first experienced DJ Mikal it my Sista’s birthday celebration and I don’t think I danced that hard in 20+years. DJ Mikal gave an awesome mix of something old with a little new. What sealed the deal, which I’ve never experienced at any ole school party was wrapping things up in praise!!! I will definitely be reaching out to book him for my next event and I hope he’s available. More...

I couldn't have chosen a better DJ to help me bring in my 50th Birthday. From start to finish he gave me everything I wanted and needed to make my day special without me having to give a playlist or any indication of what I wanted to hear. He felt the vibe and made my day super special. I will forever be grateful for the memories created on that day! More...

20 October 2022

Mikal Clay is an AMAZING DJ and worth EVERY PENNY!!!!!
He had my neighborhood Rocking and Worshipping. He is sensitive to the energy of the moments, aware of the crowd and in tune with what is next. It was a GREAT choice for her 50th Birthday!! More...

This DJ is everything that they have said and more!!! His set up was top notch! His movement between slow jams, fast jams, decades and periods was smooth. He took us all back to house music in the basement. He did our wedding ceremony music (classic gospel) and turned our reception on its head with the rest of the music! Saturday 8/20/22 will be one to remember! He is an incredible DJ!!!! More...

Mikal did a wedding I attended. The crowd danced non stop. He was also very fast with personal requests from the bride.

I'm impressed with his skills of blending music and a vast array of genres. I recommend him for any event. Best I've heard all year after attending 6 events this year.

He gives me a lot to aspire to as I go forward on my journey in this field of artistry. . I will be taking dj classes in the fall. I'm thoroughly inspired by this great talent God has laid His hands on!

We flew Mikal into Cabo St. Lucas after hearing him at an amazing event in Tulum. Let's just say MIKAL IS AMAZING. We had a wide variety of people from across the globe and everyone was engaged and hated for Mikal to leave! We had to book him an extra day to keep everyone happy. We look forward to his first class service again in our other events for our resort. More...

DJ Mikal Clay has a great ear for music and knows how to read the crowd! His DJing skills keep the people dancing when they want to dance, praising God when they want to praise, and motivated when they want to workout. DJ Mikal Clay is awesome.

13 March 2021

Mikal has been getting me through the pandemic! I’ve been able to catch his livestreams and there’s always something new. I care about transitions and the different genres mixed seamlessly is why I would recommend his services . It’s more than music, it’s an experience. More...

13 March 2021

Five stars ONLY because there is no option to give more! He is timely, both in preparing for the event AND timely in terms of knowing the pulse and temperature of the audience he is serving. Rather the youth, the seasoned or a mix of both, his mixes resonate with the crowd! And then he has the nerve to set up his virtual backgrounds each and every time to address your organization’s theme. So while he’s branding himself, he’s branding you! You can’t get any better than that! More...

DJ Mikal Clay is Awesome! He definitely knows how to get and keep the crowd going! I look forward to working with him regarding my future events!💃

DJ Mikal Clay is the quintessential people's DJ. His ability to adapt to a large variety of groups and/or unforseen circumstances is unmatched by any other DJ I have experienced.

He is not only skilled in his craft, but he is very personable, compassionate, and above all, professional! I would recommend his services in a heart beat!

Mikal Clay is a class act, extremely professional, and will give you the best product, experience, and service around. Out of 10, I’d rate him a 20! With him as my DJ, MC, and Karaoke Master, I had no worries. All I had to do was show up, and he (and his adorable crew-his son) took it from there! I’m so glad he was the one I chose to DJ and MC my 50th Birthday Celebration!! More...

Q&As

My secret to keeping the party dancing is to not be afraid to ask for feedback, watch the crowd, and ask the most non-engaged person what they like to here, and play it. Also people love to be uplifted, in that make everyone feel like they are a celebrity.

I would describe my style as non predictable and spiritual (not religious). Meaning, I love to control the spirit or the mood of each event; with the end result being amazing! I enjoy playing outside of the stereotypical box and exploring new music daily. It's a blessings to sever all people, all races, and all ages with the joy music brings. That in itself gives me life and a sense of purpose.

I love the response from the audience. I love when DJ'ing Karaoke when people get to see themselves on the screen singing and having fun. I love when people who don't look like me, give me the highest of complements and always invite me and my family back.

I have been born with the passion for music. In that, I would often find myself critiquing others sound quality, equipment, song selection etc. Therefore I was intentional to purchase the BEST equipment, study, and implement the best sound possible each and every time I had the opportunity and its been a blessing to me and others. My goal is to teach my children this craft that plants seeds for their success for life.

I believe that if you are reading this, you have already made the choice in your spirit. I connect with each customer and feel the energy of their crowd. I have the ability to get any song at any time on demand. I'm not limited to language, genre, or location. I believe that God gave me this gift, and that He will send the people He wants me to service for a lifetime. I believe in giving 125% at everything I do. I believe in being prompt, professional, and exceeding people's expectations in every way. I promise that I am the right choice for you! I thank you in advance and I cannot wait to meet you and rock your party!
