About DJ

Born in Montego, Jamaica and raised in Bronx, New York by a family comprised of many professional DJ’s, DJ Mark Da Spot (MDS) was quickly influenced by New York’s finest: DJ Kid Capri, Jam Master Jay & Biz Markie. Discovered in New York while spinning at upscale, exclusive clubs such as China Club, Sweet Sixteen and Lotus, MDS met Justin Timberlake who proved to be a catalyst as the superstar hired him as his DJ. This new gig required him to move to Los Angeles and the rest is history.

It was no surprise that DJ Mark Da Spot would soon take over at most popular Hollywood clubs including, Area, LAX, Day After, Playhouse, 1Oak , SBE venues , Poppy’s , NightNGale ( GreyStone ) , Boosty Bellows, Hyde Hollywood and many more. After hearing and admiring his style of blending Funk and Oldies, Prince hired MDS to DJ various parties for the artist, which lead to touring with Prince for years to come. Known for his scratching skills and ability to create mash-up blends with all types of music including: Hip Hop, Reggae, Rock, R&B, and Pop, he has become known as a “Crowd Mover” and in turn, one of the most sought after DJ’s in town. Spinning alongside popular celebrities such as Prince, Hugh Hefner, Justin Timberlake, Jennifer Lopez, Kevin Hart, J.Cole, Nicki Minaj, Meek Mill and NBA superstars Michael Jordan & LeBron James. Annually, MDS participates in events for NBA All-Star Weekend, Espys, CIAA, SXSW, Pro-Bowl, Essence Festival, Oscars, BET Weekend to name a few.

Coming from humble beginnings, one of MDS favorite aspects of his chosen career is travel. DJing both domestically and internationally, his most recent work has taken him to Las Vegas, Denver, New Orleans, Austin, NYC, Chicago as well as Canada, India, Australia, Iraq, Brazil, Dominican Republic, Jamaica, London, and Amsterdam.

Being entrusted as a Tour DJ has also been groundbreaking for MDS. Prince not only hired MDS for his private events, he also brought MDS along for several tour runs. From 2011-2013, the Christian Audigier Tour took him to Australia. 2014 & 2015 found MDS with Kevin Hart for his HartBeat Weekend tours. As amazing as those experiences have been for DJ Mark Da Spot, the rare opportunity and life changing experience to DJ for the troops in Iraq has been the highest honor.

Being a businessman, DJ Mark Da Spot decided to broaden his portfolio with Top Floor Entertainment, a company he started comprised of other crowd favorite DJs. TFE took off quickly and put him on the map not only as a crowd favorite DJ but also a successful event coordinator/promoter in the tough-to-succeed city of Hollywood. While continuing to DJ his own events, he also works with the most notable Event Promotions teams in LA. These events regularly put MDS in front of major celebrities and industry influencers including Ne-Yo, Rihanna, Jamie Foxx, Beyonce, Kelly Rowland, Jay Z, DeRay Davis, Wiz Khalifa, Kevin Hart, Lil Wayne, Trey Songz, Chris Brown, Vanessa and Angela Simmons, the list goes on.
