- Mo KaikaiDJ/MC/Event ProducerOriginating from humble beginnings as a financially constrained PhD student, I embraced DJing by borrowing my father's equipment and immersing myself in the scene. Recognizing the void on campus in 2014, I embarked on a journey to cultivate a vibrant community through the power of music, fostering connections and bridging diverse backgrounds in homecoming tailgates, campus concerts, and community events. At the core of my endeavor lies a commitment to upholding values of spirituality, intergenerational wealth, and veganism.

He had the entire room buzzing with excitement, and the dance floor was on fire from start to finish. Everyone—from our youngest guests to the older crowd—was up and dancing, laughing, and having the time of their lives.
For $2,100, we got so much more than a DJ; we got a true entertainer who brought the party to life. We can’t recommend DJ Kaikai enough—he’s simply the best!

I had the pleasure of having Wanjama Productions DJ and MC our wedding, and I cannot recommend them enough! From the very beginning, the team was incredibly professional, offering ...
excellent consultation to ensure they understood our needs and preferences. They were not just interested in playing music, but truly wanted to tailor the experience to fit our cultural background and personal style.
As a Haitian couple, it was important for us to incorporate our cultural music into the celebration. Wanjama Productions went above and beyond, learning specific Haitian songs and even some key phrases to interact with our guests. This effort really made a difference in creating a genuine connection with our crowd. They were able to seamlessly blend both Haitian and mainstream music, keeping the energy high and the dance floor packed all night.
In addition to the stellar DJ and MC performance, the photo booth edition was a fantastic touch! It added an extra layer of fun to the evening, giving our guests the opportunity to capture memorable moments. Everyone absolutely loved it!
Overall, Wanjama Productions was professional, adaptable, and went out of their way to ensure our wedding was a huge success. They exceeded our expectations in every way possible, and we are so grateful for the unforgettable experience they provided!
