Jackson, Mississippi native and Atlanta-based DJ and producer DJ TLew, the official DJ for hip-hop icon Lil Wayne, is bringing Mississippi’s heavy-hitting sound together with his new single “Ready,” featuring Jackson standouts Lil C and Nickoe.
Known for his work behind the turntables and his deep roots in the Southern hip-hop culture, DJ TLew continues to expand his presence as a producer and curator. With “Ready,” he taps two of Jackson’s recognizable voices to deliver a record built around energy, authenticity, and hometown pride.
The collaboration brings together three artists with strong ties to Mississippi’s hip-hop movement. Lil C and Nickoe bring their distinctive Jackson perspectives to the track, while DJ TLew provides the production and creative direction that connects the record to the sound and spirit of the South.
“Ready” marks another move in DJ TLew’s continued evolution beyond the DJ booth. As an Atlanta-based tastemaker with years of experience working alongside some of hip-hop’s biggest names, TLew is using his platform to spotlight talent and create new music that connects his Mississippi roots with Atlanta’s global hip-hop culture.
The single serves as a reminder that Jackson’s influence on Southern hip-hop remains strong—and DJ TLew is helping carry that influence to new audiences.
“Ready” is available now across digital streaming platforms.
