ABOUT DJ SHORT-E
Short-e was influenced by American pop culture and began to fall in love with the powers of music at an early age. At first, Michael Jackson & Madonna were his childhood idols and inspirations.
At age 10, he already showed signs of a future entertainer when he began to distribute self-made paper tickets to his lunch-time shows and performances in elementary school. At age 14 he picked up a love & passion for DJing when he heard Hot 97's FunkMaster Flex mixing and scratching on-air. After begging and bugging his parents for months, Short-e finally received his first set of turntables for his birthday at the age of 15 and instantly, DJ was born. At this time freestyle, dance music and hip-hop were in his crates. He would throw infamous house parties in his basement which gained him notoriety and fame in his High School and others near by. Soon after, he was asked to DJ his home-coming dance where he was paid for the first time. The rest is history...
After graduating high school in Orange County, NY (a suburb 1 hour north of New York City), Short-e took his movement to Tampa, FL where he went to college and launched his own company, Hot4Ever LLC. Short-e spent 10 years in Tampa where he was hired by the cities best promoters and clubs. His mixes stood out from the other DJ's because of his tasteful track selection, sexy style and smooth mix transitions. In 2003, He became co-owner of Rain Lounge nightclub at the early age of 25, which gave him another new title.
Evolving is what Short-e does best. In 2004, he launched "The Short-e Show", a self-produced TV show which he also hosts. Local and national celebrities would both embrace and endorse the program when Short-e approached them for an interview during his club gigs and parties. This was just the beginning of the success of the program. Since the show's launch, Short-e has hit many red carpets to bring you exclusive celebrity interviews and behind the scenes to some of the hottest events. YouTube took notice of his videos and offered him a partner content deal which allows The Short-e Show to grow faster online organically while gaining extra revenue from advertisers and Google partners. Currently, Short-e has accumulated over 11 million video views and is featured as a "show" on YouTube.
In 2010, Short-e's popularity hit an all-time high after he hosted Diddy's Super Bowl party at Dolce Nightclub in South Beach. Since then, Short-e has continued to make guest appearances at some of the biggest and best clubs in the NY & FL markets while capitalizing on his TV show and popularity.
Most recently, Short-e has returned from his international South Africa club tour where he performed at multiple venues in multiple cities. He has also co-founded a major talent search event, the "Tri-State Star Search" which will take place in 2011-2012 and open the doors to 40 million households in the New York, New Jersey & Connecticut markets, with the entire process and production being filmed for national broadcast television. Furthermore, Short-e was named co-host of "Miami Music Television" a new program which launched on January 1st, 2011. He is seen on ABC every Saturday night at 1am in the greater South Florida market.
