Bio
Finding his roots in Virginia, CEO of P-Flav Entertainment
and iGot Stacks Media,
DJ ROB STACKS has travelled the
world on his skill alone. Originally DJ Duck, a nickname he picked up as a
child, STACKS has developed into a music mixing force that few can answer
to.
First introduced to the music world in 1999, STACKS was a host on “The
Wednesday Night Mixtape” a weekly radio show at WODU, a station based around
the Old Dominion University community. He continued to pay his dues as he
carried crates for the Boodah Brothers of 103 Jamz in Norfolk, Virginia.
STACKS valued this position because it gave him access to the radio station
to practice on the station’s turntable set up, gaining his first glimpse
into DJing. Then with DJs such as Kid Capri and Ron G burying into his mind
and vinyl in his heart STACKS knew he was destined for greatness.
As his skills progressed, he began to develop a name, and soon his
popularity, becoming the campus DJ for both Old Dominion University and
Norfolk State University. As a result, STACKS began to frequent Virginia’s
Hampton Roads area nightlife at Club Maxi’s, Picassos, the Mirage, and more.
Over the years, DJ ROB STACKS has embodied the term DJ. He is truly an all
around entertainer and has left his stamp on the most exclusive venues and
night clubs in DC, Maryland, Virginia, and North Carolina. His
repertoire includes the ability to scratch, blend, emcee, and maneuver
seamlessly through various genres of music. This is important in a day and
age when technology allows a person to become a DJ overnight. A little known
fact is that in the 10 plus years that he has been DJing he has amassed over
10, 000 records in his collection. This is evident in the “million dollar”
hard drive that he now uses to hold his catalog of music. “Any era of music,
I can rock…Plain and simple.”
STACKS has grown far beyond the “College DJ” scene reaching globally as far
as the US Takeover at the Zenyth in Venray of The Netherlands. He has a
strong network of affiliates including Derrty DJs, Future Star DJs, the Sick
1 Crew, and Team 6 DJs. He has released several classic mixtape series
including “America’s Most Wanted Series”, “Stay Fly Mix Tapes”, “Future Star
DJs: We Got Next- Volume 1”, “How you Ridin? The Dirty South Editions”, “Got
Stacks Compilations”, “The Ransom Note”, and “Game Day- The March Madness
Mixtapes”. He is the first American DJ to become a part of the Netherlands
R.A.P. Agency that books events throughout Europe. His mixes, notable
affiliations, performances at popular events, venues, and competitions, and
other extensive career highlights truly make this DJ stand above the rest.
As for the future, STACKS plans to travel around the country DJing and
hosting more exclusive events, continuing to put the spotlight on Virginia.
He looks forward to working with new people, artists, and promoters.
DJ ROB STACKS is from Roanoke, Virginia and is birthday is October 31st.
