The Arab Diaspora's Curator-in-Chief
I’m DJ Basbousa, a DJ, cultural curator, and the person who knows exactly which track makes the room lose it.
What started as a nickname became a platform. DJB is where Arab pop culture gets the space it deserves, on the dance floor, in your wardrobe, and in the conversations about who we are and where we come from.
Based in the DMV. Performing and speaking nationally.
