DJ Tunez was born Michael Baba Tunde Adeyinka in Brooklyn’s Long Island Hospital. His early music education followed a pattern he recalls as “everything African at home, everything else outside.” He learned to speak Yoruba by listening to his father’s King Sunny Ade records, and when his parents sent him to boarding school in Nigeria, Tunez caught up with the new sound coming out of the Great home country, Naija! He has featured in several music hits such as Iskaba by Wande Coal.
