Profile
In a world of confusion jam-packed with negativity and immorality DJ Divine has found himself purposefully placed within the Gospel industry. He say’s “We have no other time in which to live. The past is gone; the future has not arrived. The only time we have is now”.
Ecc_9:10 say’s “Whatsoever thy hand findeth to do, do it with thy might."

33-year-old DJ Divine is truly doing it with all his might! DJ Divine has been DJing for 17 years. For many in the industry, he is considered a veteran, for his passion, and unique style of playing edgy, urban Gospel music.

1993 saw DJ Divine confess his sins and begin his life again as a born again Christian (hallelujah).

Having a passion for music, DJ Divine decided to form a Gospel sound system called Divine Influence. The sound consisted of five members (including Isaiah Raymond Dyer front man for Raymond & Co) this would be the beginning of a new era for the UK Gospel club scene.

DJ Divine an early pioneer, was one of the original London based Gospel DJ’s to re-produce Gospel remixes. Using popular instrumentals & well-known artist’s like Kirk Franklin and Dawkins & Dawkins. DJ Divine found himself attracting both the young and the old.

A self-taught DJ, Divine’s first gig was at a house party in East London, whereby he developed a reputation and a loyal fan base. This led to him playing host to cities across the UK, notably, Birmingham, Bristol, Wales, Manchester, Nottingham, Ireland & Holland.

In the summer of 1996 DJ Divine married his sweetheart Lisa Nicole Allen (also a member of UK’s leading gospel group Raymond & Co.) They went on to have four beautiful children and three goldfish (now deceased).

In February 2000 DJ Divine & Marc Anthony founded DJ Ministry.com. Lisa Nicole Allen joined DJ ministry in 2005 as co-partner, Events Manager, and supports DJ Divine in ministry.
Having played for a plethora of Gospel artists, to crowds of over 2,000 in various clubs around the country, November 2005, saw the launch of the ‘Believer’s Lounge’. A gathering for music lovers, aspiring and established DJs and all who wish to praise in a Spirit filled venue.

DJ Divine’s hobbies and interests include music production, street ministry, graphic design, photography, swimming and male grooming (ok barbering).
