DJ NOBLE

Kelechi “DJ Noble” Ononiwu was born in 1996 in San Jose, CA and later moved to Sacramento

where he was raised. Admiration for music and all of its complexities was instilled in him at a young age. His passion intensified with his introduction to the world of Hip-Hop DJ-ing. His love of drums and all types of percussion is rooted in his Nigerian upbringing and the music that filled his home during his childhood. However, It was not until the age of 16 that he began to explore the idea of Disc Jockeying. Over the past few years, he has been one of the official DJs for the highly revered Howard Homecoming, was crowned Howard’s Hottest DJ of 2017-2018, and went on the road to open up for Dipset during their reunion tour.

Inkay 2x

Pronounced “IN-KAY-TWO-TIMES”, alternative rap artist Inkay2x is someone who has found different ways to express himself throughout life. Born in 1997 as Nkwelle Ngulledie Nkwelle, the Maryland native has had a passion for music since he was 13. As a child, while others would play basketball on the blacktop at recess, Inkay instead gravitated towards freestyling over instrumentals on his friends’ iPods. This early exposure to rap played a major part in his decision to pursue music seriously by the age of 20. Influenced by The Weeknd, Tyler the Creator, and Kanye West. In 2019 he released his debut EP “Superstar”, a project consisting of melodic tales, fun and struggles through adolescence. In early 2021 Inkay followed the EP with the second installment of his story “Chapter II.” The 8-track EP detailed the issues that he faced, dealing with his dualities and juxtapositions of his emotions and life itself. In 2023 Inkay released his “23 Minutes Till Showtime” EP, his most successful yet. The EP has garnered over 50,000 streams with popular songs like “Chosen One”, “Please GTF” and “Oochie Wally.”
