We had the good fortune of connecting with DeUndrae “Dj CutD” Harmon and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi DeUndrae “Dj CutD”, where are your from? We’d love to hear about how your background has played a role in who you are today?
Texas born and raised currently living in Tennessee just a kid from a small town called “De Kalb Tx” 903 STAND UP!!! I first got my spotlight from our home radio station “KZRB” 103.5 shoutout to the staff at the station including “Dj IcyD” for giving me a chance he created a “Freestyle Saturday” every Saturday you could go live on the air and 30sec freestyle no cursing no use of the N word ect. Well I was like 12-13 at that time calling in each and every Saturday and doing a freestyle live on air at the end of the night people could call in and vote on who they think won and best believe my tally’s where krazy compared to others iv won the most consecutive Freestyle Saturdays in a row people were starting to take notice and wondering who was this “kid sounding grown” and turning up the station every weekend Next thing u knew me along with my hometown friends where throwing parties at a storm shelter lol just allowing the buzz to grow bigger and bigger I didn’t even have a dj controller or Tables then I was using a Mouse and keyboard lol man the memories lol . As I began to get older I started noticing the money potential from these events so I started taking my craft serious once I hit 19 but started when I was 15.

Let’s talk shop? Tell us more about your career, what can you share with our community?
I’m most proud of how far I’ve made it even though I’m not at my peak, but I most definitely got the correct understanding as to how to get there. I’ve got to where I am, by staying CONSISTENT!!! making sure that every set that I Dj, leaves you with nothing but a joyous and memorable time. Along the way I’ve learned so many lessons I don’t know where to begin lol but the most important 1 is …”No matter what ALWAYS REMEMBER YOUR WORTH.

If you had a friend visiting you, what are some of the local spots you’d want to take them around to?
I stay on the road sooo much that I really don’t have a favorite spot in the city UNLESS ITS HOME lol any and everything that I wanna do I can do it in the comfort of my own home

The Shoutout series is all about recognizing that our success and where we are in life is at least somewhat thanks to the efforts, support, mentorship, love and encouragement of others. So is there someone that you want to dedicate your shoutout to?
First and foremost give a shout out to fans, they’re the ones that keep me wanting to give them more each time I set up.. my Family cousins that’s always being my back bone. Last but definitely not least my bro Sgt.B for the knowledge and the convos about this lifestyle that has allowed me to progress and be the best Dj that I can be.
