From Turntables to Therapy: DJ Kiss Is Reimagining What It Means to Be a Global Sound Curator.

In today’s ever-evolving music landscape, where identity, rhythm, and influence intersect, DJ Kiss emerges as a multifaceted force, one whose craft extends beyond the booth and onto the broader canvas of global culture. As a Nigerian DJ whose sound is rooted in Afrobeat, but deeply fluent in Amapiano, Afro House, and global dance music, DJ Kiss has quickly become a name synonymous with energy, precision, and elevation.

Her name might spark memories of nights where the music refused to fade, but DJ Kiss is not just a performer, she is an architect of experience. With a deep understanding of rhythm and an innate ability to read a room, she’s been a commanding presence at events across Nigeria and beyond, delivering soundscapes that are as dynamic as they are deliberate. Her sets are never just about sound, they’re about storytelling. From the streets of Lagos to upscale lounges, from underground parties to branded activations, DJ Kiss has cultivated an unmistakable signature: a global DJ with a distinctively African pulse.

But her ambitions extend far beyond nightlife. Currently pursuing a degree in sex therapy, DJ Kiss is embracing a rare and transformative intersection: music, mental health, and human intimacy. “I’ve always been fascinated by the emotional and physical connections that shape us,” she shares. “Sex therapy isn’t just about sex, it’s about healing, communication, vulnerability, and understanding how our desires and traumas influence how we relate to others.”

In a society where conversations about emotional intelligence and sexual wellness are often stigmatized or neglected, DJ Kiss is part of a bold new wave of women who are normalizing this dialogue especially for young Africans. Her journey into sex therapy is deeply personal and visionary. She hopes to someday offer safe spaces and resources for people particularly women and creatives who are navigating relationships, identity, and emotional growth.

“My passion for music and my path in therapy are not mutually exclusive,” she explains. “They both tap into how we connect with ourselves and each other, through feeling, rhythm, energy, and presence. A DJ set can hold you emotionally, just like a therapy session can. One is louder, one is quieter, but both are powerful.”

This bold duality places her in a unique class of creatives who are not just shaping culture, but healing it. DJ Kiss doesn’t view the booth and the clinic as separate worlds, they’re complementary arenas where she facilitates transformation, joy, release, and connection. In her world, the music might move your body, but the vision moves your soul.

In an industry where many are content with visibility, DJ Kiss is focused on legacy. With plans to become an exclusive producer, she’s setting her sights on executive-level creative control. Her next chapter includes producing cohesive music projects, curating sonic worlds, and working directly with artists to develop intentional, forward-facing sounds. It’s a natural evolution for someone who understands music not just as entertainment, but as art, therapy, and a vehicle for cultural export.

Her portfolio is equally impressive when it comes to brand partnerships. Over the years, DJ Kiss has been tapped by some of the world’s most recognized beverage brands like Martell, Hennessy, Jameson, Beefeater, Ballantine’s, Moët & Chandon, and more. These collaborations speak not just to her reach, but to her consistency as a trusted tastemaker and energy curator. Whether she’s spinning for an exclusive launch or headlining a lifestyle event, Kiss brings a refined, global-ready aesthetic that resonates with both local audiences and international brands.

What sets DJ Kiss apart isn’t just her skill behind the decks, it’s her vision. She sees the music industry not just as a space to perform, but as a platform to empower, to tell nuanced African stories, and to bridge communities through sound. At a time when African genres are gaining unprecedented global attention, her role as a global sound DJ becomes even more significant. She embodies the future of African music, one where DJs are not just conduits of sound, but cultural entrepreneurs and wellness advocates in their own right.

Yet, even with her growing influence, DJ Kiss remains grounded. She’s intentional about community, about knowledge-sharing, and about creating spaces where women, especially African women can thrive across multiple identities. As a DJ, a student of therapy, a budding producer, and a brand in her own right, she stands at the intersection of sound, healing, and self-actualization.

Her journey is far from linear, and that’s exactly what makes it powerful. DJ Kiss is charting a new path, one that’s guided by sound but rooted in so much more. In her world, a turntable can be both a tool for celebration and a mirror for introspection. She is, quite simply, in a league of her own.
