Party like crazy with DJ Madout

DJ Madout has pretty impressive credentials. He has toured as a DJ for rhythm and blues singer Natalie Cole, worked with former G Unit rapper Lloyd Banks, rappers Gucci Mane, Ace Hood and Juelz Santana, as well as Shaggy, Sean Paul and the Marleys.

He craves recognition in Jamaica and is booked for a number of gigs here during the festive season.

Born Jermaine Ricketts in the Bronx, New York, to Jamaican parents, he has made a name in hip hop circles, doing gigs on Hot 97’s Who’s Next and VH1’s Love & Hip Hop ATL, among others.

All this, he is quick to point out, is not all glamour.

“I went through a lot of no sleep, no eating, locking in and practising my craft, day in, day out. Networking was important for me. A lot of hard work, prayer and dedication,” he explained.

DJ Madout is one of the hottest names on the party and club circuit in the tri-state area. His style of playing music is unique, he says.

“I bring a difference to any event that I am playing. If I’m on the set, you definitely have to dance and enjoy yourself. If you come to the party after having a bad day, it’s my job to ensure that you forget the bad day.”

A nephew of respected tour and artiste manager Copeland Forbes, DJ Madout was on the recent Welcome To Jamrock Cruise. His upcoming gigs include the White Diamond Anniversary in Negril as well as a New Year’s Eve event in Mandeville called Vive.
