Early life.
Michael Babatunde Adeyinka was born on May 10, 1989, and raised in South Brooklyn. His dream began after DJing his local church's Christmas parties as a teen. This eventually grew into paid gigs DJing church members’ events such as birthday parties and weddings.
His African community in South Brooklyn began to take a fancy to his ability to play music with an afrobeats and dancehall-inspired atmosphere; the attention encouraged him to throw parties around the city.
Career.
In 2016, DJ Tunez collaborated with Wande Coal to release ‘Iskaba’, which was listed in Okayafrica's "Best Songs of 2017".
A Black Friday “Blackout” party from DJ Tunez brought about 1,700 people to Queens’ Amazura Concert Hall in November 2019.
Featured as a guest panelist at a business forum held at Columbia University in 2019, Adeyinka joined other leaders in the music industry to discuss the business of art and literature on the African continent. The panel was moderated by special guest design and technology executive Olufeko.
