Maino Presents Kitchen Talk - Ep 57 with DJ Kid Capri

Legendary DJ Kid Capri drops by the Kitchen to discuss his legacy, new music, the music business, and more.

Grammy Award-Winning DJ and Producer, Kid Capri, is globally known as an originator, innovator, and pioneer of DJ Culture. His grassroots hustler mentality became a template for success emulated by the DJs that followed in his footsteps. Dubbed The Guru of Mixtapes, Kid Capri literally redefined the term “DJ” as he blazed a trail with his array of fire mixtapes and lit crowd hyping performances. “A true master is somebody that makes other people want to do what they do.”

Kid Capri was the first DJ to perform on major networks like BET and VH1. He starred in the popular HBO series Russel Simmons Def Comedy Jam and recently returned for The Netflix Def Comedy Jam's 25th Anniversary Special. Kid has produced tracks for Snoop Dogg, Jay-Z, Madonna, Heavy D, and 50 Cent to name a few. He has years of touring experience with legends like Diddy, Jay Z, Aaliyah, Salt-N Peppa, Timbaland, and most recently RBRM. Kid won a Grammy for producing a song on Jay-Z’s classic album, Hard Knock Life. In 2018 Kid narrated Kendrick Lamar’s DAMN album; the only hip-hop album to ever win a Pulitzer Prize. Kid premiered his signature crowd hyping vocals at Jennifer Lopez’s ALL I HAVE Las Vegas Residency during the magical portion of her show dedicated to The Bronx.
