How I Mix Street Songs As a DJ for Ikorodu Party - My Simple Beginner Guide

Many people for Igbogbo, Ikorodu, Lagos and within dey ask me — Barlowzeez how you dey mix street songs wey dey make everybody dance? Today I go show you my simple method wey I dey use for Ikorodu street party.

*1. I Dey Start With Prayer + Vibez Song*

I no dey start party with hard song. I dey start with Seyi Vibez - Chance or Asake - Lonely At The Top. E dey make people gather.

*2. I Dey Arrange My Songs By Energy*

My playlist na like this:

- Low: Seyi Vibez, Asake (to start)

- Medium: Olamide, Zinoleesky (when crowd don gather)

- High: Burna Boy City Boys, Shallipopi, Kizz Daniel (when everybody don dey dance)

No jump from low to high quick. Make e dey rise small small.

*3. My Mixing Secret - I No Dey Cut Song Quick*

For street, people wan sing along. So I dey let song play for 2 minutes before I mix next one. I dey use echo and small scratch — no too much.

*4. My Equipment - No Be Big Thing*

I start with laptop + Virtual DJ + small controller. You no need big equipment to start for Ikorodu. Na your song selection be the main thing.

*5. How I Read Crowd For Ikorodu*

If na boys full party, I play Seyi Vibez and Olamide more. If na girls and boys mixed, I add Ayra Starr, Kizz Daniel Twe Twe. If crowd old, I add Fuji Garbage and Pasuma.

Na so I dey make my Street Vibration mix sweet every week.
