5 Questions with DJ Bonnie Natty B


First impressions are lasting impressions. I say that because I will never forget the first time I met, DJ Bonnie Natty B, the subject for my five questions, he saved me and my business partners from a possible disastrous party that could have ruined the reputations of our entertainment groups, Wild Out Entertainment and IV My People Productions.
Here is a summary of my initial encounter with this talented DJ. The party was suppose to start at 10:30 p.m. and the DJ with the speakers was not there and he was not answering his phone. Natty B however was on time, which was very professional of him. The DJ with the speakers showed up one and half hours later.
Patrons were starting to show up and there was no music at a dance party. I felt so embarrassed that I wanted to hide in the corner, but I kept my cool and told the patrons to please be patient while we solved the music problem.
We finally got the speakers set up at 12:00 a.m. Right before Natty B started mixing I grabbed him to the side and said something along the lines of, "I need you to bring the tunes when you go on, hit them with the hits. You have to get these people on the dance floor before they leave and tell their friends never to attend one of my parties ever again. I can't f*#!ing afford that, literally! I need you Natty to bring it and I mean bring it."
Boy did he bring it. The dance floor was soon a sea of people dancing, it was like magic how he saved the day. Friends of mine were coming up to me asking, "Who is that DJ," others were amazed by how he seemed to play everyones' favorite song that night.
I personally forgot about the two hour delay, danced all night with beautiful girls, and the party was very profitable(what else can you ask for lol). It was all because of Natty B and I will be forever be thankful to him.
Well I hope you enjoyed that short story, here are the five questions.
