This week’s Spotlight DJ comes from DJ Best, who shares a beautiful Juneteenth playlist and a bit about herself below:

How has the virus impacted your show?

COVID-19 has affected my show a lot considering I haven’t been doing it. The transition moving back to Michigan was pretty stressful and I have just been focusing on my online classes. My goal for next month is to get my show back up and running if possible. 

What kind of music have you been listening to get through the quarantine?

I tried to listen to only happy music at the beginning of this quarantine but that was short lived. Lately I have been listening to a lot of Frank Ocean, Brittany Howard, and FKA twigs. 

What do you miss most about being in the studio at WLUW?

What I miss most about being in the WLUW studio is being able to share my music on-air. I miss spending the week before my show creating a playlist. I miss listening to new music on the red-line while looking out the window and pretending i’m in a movie. I can’t wait for things to be somewhat back to normal. 

What was the last concert you went to?

The last concert that I went to was the Lumineers (don’t judge, they’ve got some bops). 

Don’t forget to save the playlist to your library and check back next week for another Spotlight DJ!
