As one of the most recognized music figures in the entertainment industry, DJ Skee has certainly made his presence felt. Since the young age of 15, this Minnesota-raised artist has been creating mixtapes that have captured the attention and interests of many. Throughout 2000, Skee was a regular on Minnesota’s KMOJ radio, and attracted many fans with his work. One of those people interested was Steve Rifkind, a music entrepreneur and founder of Loud Records who had worked with artists such as the Wu-Tang Clan, Big Punisher, Mobb Deep and many others. After graduating from Central High School in 2001, Skee moved to Los Angeles to work with Rifkind at Loud Records.

Because of his way of not limiting himself to any types of music, DJ Skee has worked withseveral high profiled artists for almost a decade. Some of those artists include Snoop Dogg, Chris Cornell, Michael Jackson, Ice Cube, Mike Posner, Lil Jon, Travis Barker and many more. Skee has also been able to develop a great connection with his fans by having his own radio show on Los Angeles’ KIIS-FM and SiriusXM Satellite Radio. He’s also interviewed A-List music artists such as Jennifer Lopez and Lady Gaga.

DJ Skee has headlined so many different parts of the world that it’s fair to say he’s becoming an international icon. From countries in South America to Asia, Skee has truly left his mark in nearly everyplace he’s been to. Skee has DJ’d many events such as the Super Bowl, Nickelodeon’s Kids’ Choice Awards, the Grammy’s, NBA All-Star Weekend, and the NHL Winter Classic.

When he’s not making guest appearances at huge events, Skee has been building a huge life style channel known as Skee.TV. Since 2007, the network has had over 250 million views on YouTube, and has been distributed to restaurants and mobile homes.
