There’s a lot to consider when planning an event. But one crucial and important detail that many overlook is the entertainment. Many believe that hiring any Christian DJ or entertainment company available will be good enough, when in truth, it can be detrimental. Your entertainment is what sets the tone and atmosphere for your event, and hiring a DJ who isn’t familiar with hosting formal events can ruin your big day. That’s why 180 Entertainment isn’t just some random entertainment company, but one that has years of experience and the flexibility to host informal and formal events!


YOUR DJ SETS THE TONE
From the moment that your guests arrive, the music begins to form their first impressions. You’re going to need a DJ who is able to capture the vision and energy you want for your event and display it through music all throughout the evening. Many inexperienced or informal DJs aren’t able to provide this standard, which can cause some hiccups throughout the night.


MORE THAN JUST MUSIC
A great DJ does more than just play music. At 180 Entertainment, we also provide and serve as professional MCs who are fluent in both English and Spanish. A professional MC host helps transition and move your event along smoothly from start to finish. We’ll handle your announcements, keep to your schedule, and keep your guests engaged – all while letting you relax and actually enjoy your special day without worry or stress.


MUSIC YOU KNOW AND TRUST
As a Christian-based and owned entertainment company, we know how challenging it is to find clean and uplifting music that is fun and dance-worthy. That’s where 180 Entertainment stands out. We have a music library of over 25,000 songs that are filled with both faith-based and family-friendly songs. That means no offensive and explicit lyrics, and no inappropriate content. Just high-quality, positive music that lifts Spirits and unites people together. Whether it’s gospel, Christian hip-hop, clean mainstream hits, or
worship, we’ve got all your music needs covered!


THE 180 ENTERTAINMENT DIFFERENCE
Your DJ choice can make or break your entire evening. Don’t settle for the average or inexperienced. At 180 Entertainment, we’re not just Christian DJs – we’re a ministry-minded professional who cares about your satisfaction!

It was around 1998 when I first encountered a Disc Jockey and I was impressed! The ability to execute a set mixing different songs, different rhythms and beats while making it all sound as if it were one single song! Impressive!

Ever since then, I was intrigued about the art of a DJ. What is a DJ? As per good ol' wikipedia, a DJ is a person who plays recorded music for an audience. Fair enough right? So I went and learned how to DJ alongside some of my friends and it was fun, it was entertaining and we were able to "turn up" whenever we wanted because we had the ability to set the mood and atmosphere of a party and/or audience -- as long as the CD didn't skip! #IYKYK
Now then, what is a Christian DJ? As many of you know, and as mentioned in our ​biography, I gave my life back to Christ in December 2008. Never again looking back or questioning my decision. By far, the best one I've ever made. I remember asking God "what am I going to do now?". I felt like it was no longer an option to DJ in a secular atmosphere and DJ secular music. So what now? -- GOD, in His infinite wisdom, mercy and grace reminded me of Moses in front of the Red Sea -- "what do you have in your hand, Moses?" or better yet... "what do you have in your hand, Eddie?". And it hit me - "I DJ! So you want me to become a Christian DJ?". I heard nothing back, only chirps! 

I went to my pastor and had this conversation with him. About how God showed me Moses, the Red Sea, what do you have in your hand?, the staff in Moses' hand. I felt in my heart God was calling me to become a Christian DJ, yet I had no idea where to start. So we talked, we brainstormed new DJ names as my secular DJ name was perverse. Finally, after days of brainstorming, I called him and said "what about DJ 360?". My pastor replies, "well not bad, only that 360 degrees brings you back to the same place. What I believe you are trying to say is DJ 180, right?" I said, YES! 180! That's it! And in 2009, DJ 180 was born! 180 degrees from the world into the Kingdom of God. I turned my back to the world, I turned my back to the old me, I turned my back to the secular realm and although I am in this world, I do not belong to it! I now belong to Christ!

So you see, a Christian DJ (in my opinion), is not someone who plays hymns through turntables or modern decks. It's not someone who lives an intentionally sinful life and plays Christian music at events for compensation only. A Christian DJ is someone who has been called by God, gifted by God and anointed by God with the purpose of enlarging His kingdom and provide a service outside of the four walls of the church -- although often times inside as well! It is someone who is a Christian, fears God, loves people and wants to serve God through the talent and gift God has deposited in that person. Let me try all that in one sentence...
"A Christian DJ is a God-fearing, people-loving, anointed and skilled servant of God with the calling to enlarge His kingdom through the mixing of music that is uplifting, inspiring and reinvigorating to those who hear it!"
How's that? Fair definition? Now, this is considering the fact of several types of DJs out there. For example, we strive in DJing Christian Weddings, Sweet 16's, High School Proms and Formals, etc. Therefore, our style if DJing is much different than a youth event, block party, outreach Christian DJ. Nevertheless, we strictly enforce with our clients the music selections for these formal events. Our standards as Christians will not be compromised by any event we agree and choose to host. 

In conclusion, (my high school teacher would be proud of me for still using this phrase), after much consideration, much thought, much analysis and self-examining, I believe that a Christian DJ is someone who was set aside by God for specific calling -- to enlarge His kingdom through music!

Stay blessed, ya'll!!
