Amir Abdullah is a rare breed of music lover—equal parts' historian, artist and executive. Also known as DJ Amir, his passion for music and its power to transform is matched by a deep understanding of its cultural and social impacts.
A self-proclaimed history buff and student of sociology, Amir is a frequent lecturer and guest speaker who applies his knowledge of multiple music genres to curate experiences for listeners across the globe. Digging into his deep crates of classic and rare records, he also elevates music and artists, especially innovative hip-hop artists and jazz musicians, who rarely receive the respect and appreciation they deserve, but whose music will influence generations to come.
Amir is also part of hip-hop history as a record label owner, sample excavator, music historian, compilation curator and DJ—acknowledged as a pioneer alongside his childhood heroes. One of the few hip-hop veterans who is simultaneously an artist and an executive, Amir continues to excavate and celebrate the wealth of back music catalogs recording to benefit sample-spotters, disco dancers, music nerds and adventurous music lovers worldwide.
