Born into this world, William Bonsu, on November 22nd 1982, DJ Bonsu grew up
on the south side of Chicago. Discerned by the many influences of his
environment, Bonsu listened to West African tunes, calypso, soca, reggae and
disco spun by his father, a local yet prominent ghanian dj in Chicago. It was also
then that Bonsu, while tagging along with his father to many different events on weekends, developed an interest in the art of �djing?. The hip-hop culture didn?t
really capture Bonsu until his teenage years however, the infamous MC?s and
Dj?s of the late 80?s and early to mid 90?s influenced him. Intrigued by the art of spinning, blending and scratching in his teenage years, Bonsu started his quest
to learn this craft by teaching himself. Hitting the party scene in 1999, Bonsu
never looked back. While embarking on the higher education journey to college
@ The University of Illinois, Bonsu rocked the campus alongside his then dj partner, DJ B- Simms where they both made a name for themselves doing fraternity and
Sorority parties, Black Student Union events, bars, clubs, charity functions, and even hosting radio segments as on-air personalities. Bonsu broke into the Chicago club scene in 2003 where he was noted to be amongst the favorite of new djs on the scene spinning his eclectic mix of hip-hop, house, reggae, disco, soulful r&b tunes to this present day. As an ambitious dj and business man, Bonsu worked many with different corporate companies, promoters and clubs along the likes of Lancome-Paris, Big Girl Cosmetics, World Famous Ent, Dis Ent, Ghanafou Ent, Allusion productions, Bigg Figga, Upscale, Jaipora, Black Alumni,
