  So, What is a DJ? Tough question. A DJ (disc jockey) takes many forms. The three most common forms is: Radio DJs, Mobile DJs, and Club DJs. All three share the common goal of providing an entertainment for a wide variety of people through various means, mostly however, through music. 

A DJ's job is to combine all the elements necessary for their performance into one fluid package which can be easily swallowed by all of his or her's listeners. For some DJs this includes talk and games, while for others it means spinning the latest and greatest to the hippest people in town. All DJs, however, deserve respect for the job they do. This gets really tough among DJs themselves simply because you can't fit too many ego-inflated heads into one room without some of them bumping into each other (and believe me, the average DJ has an ego-inflated head... =). But in the end, we're all trying to accomplish the same thing -- providing entertainment. Respect that.
