This week on The Big & Lazy Podcast, we sit with KY mixtape legend DJ Slikk, a top DJ in the Midwest known for the KY Raised brand. He shares his playlist, wildest moments, and how he earned the title “Mixtape Iron Man.”
We discuss KY Raised, a voice for Kentucky pride, and Elitegiance’s impact on the state’s music scene. Slikk talks about balancing craft and crowd connection, what makes a record a hit, and keeping Louisville’s DJ tradition alive.
He also opens up about the KUE Awards, his reasons for starting and stopping them, and his plans for 2026. From building a creative empire to advice for new DJs, DJ Slikk shares his insights on legacy, hustle, and Kentucky’s sound.
