We had the good fortune of connecting with Elijah Earlington and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Can you open up a bit about your work and career? We’re big fans and we’d love for our community to learn more about your work.
I am a DJ & a musician out of the Eastside of Atlanta, Ga Gwinnet County. Other then the other DJ’s in Metro Atlanta I mostly stream artist out the East Atlanta at my shows. I average 3 venues a week. I had to sit back and be a humble student of the game when I was younger to get to the level I am today. I was extremally hard sitting back watch other DJs at big shows while I DJ smaller events and taking constructive criticism. I had to take losses and make adjustments to improve my mistakes everytime. I learned to always be humble and adjust. I want the world to remember James 1:12

If you had a friend visiting you, what are some of the local spots you’d want to take them around to?
My favorite spots in the city is my baber shop and my DJ venues. Such as Pregame, La Hacienda , Silk on Candler , Chit Chat , Icebar , Privilege

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?
I would love to thank my Parents for guiding me and raising me to the musician I am today. I also want to thank All my contributing artist on my recent EP “State of Georgia Vs. Elijah Earlington”.
