Have you ever walked into a bar, café, or boutique store and received *remarkably* poor service?
I’m not talking about a busy La Colombe or an understaffed Woodbury Commons outlet.
I mean walking into a place of business where the staff are moody & mumbly. You just don’t feel welcome, and it kind of feels like it is done on purpose.
You get the impression that *you* are the one who is supposed to ‘wait for it,’ ‘work for it,’ ‘just be cool,’ or figure out how to ‘fit in.’
The thing is, not all DJs who sign up for weddings see helping people celebrate a unique chapter in their lives as their final destination. For them, it pays the rent while they wait for their shot at DJing at Marquee or Gov Ball.
Not me. I live to collaborate with partners set on unique, once-in-a-lifetime experiences.
I will lead by listening to your story and your vision of the perfect wedding or engagement.
I will address your challenges, doubts, and questions.
I will give you attention, solutions, and recommendations, tailored to your event.
Thank you for visiting my profile.

We were so happy to have Chinua Unites as a part of our wedding celebration! Our reception had Spanish and English speakers and people of all ages, and he was able to emcee in both languages and keep the party going with music that everyone could enjoy. In preparing for the event, Chinua was attentive and responded quickly to our questions, helped us tailor our playlist, and made sure to discuss the details of the evening and review things we may not have thought about. He was also very generous with his time and even made himself available to visit the venue with us. We had a wonderful experience working with Chinua Unites and definitely recommend him!

DJ Chinua Unites was absolutely phenomenal at our wedding! He read the room and crafted the perfect musical journey through our reception. Chinua masterfully transitioned from my favorite hip-hop & R&B era and perfectly closed out the night with energetic Afrobeats. His magnetic energy and mic presence kept our guests moving all night long, creating exactly the vibe we wanted. We loved Chinua Unites!

We booked DJ Chinua Unites to DJ and MC at our wedding and he was absolutely incredible. We feel so lucky to have found him. Not only was he courteous and professional, but he also kept everyone dancing with his mixes throughout the whole night! We also appreciated that his MCing helped keep everything moving on schedule. Overall I can’t say enough good things about DJ Chinua Unites. He was the perfect DJ and I would recommend him with the utmost confidence to anyone else planning a wedding or event.

The music was absolutely perfect! DJ Chinua Unites got exactly the vibe we were going for– from the ceremony to cocktail hour to getting everyone on the dance floor. He respected our preferences while adding his own expert touch to keep the energy flowing. We danced up a sweat! Couldn't have asked for a better DJ for our special day.
