DJ Puffy, the trailblazing disc jockey from Barbados, has
once again made history by winning the coveted International DJ of the Year award at the
Caribbean Music Awards. This marks a significant milestone not only for DJ Puffy but also for
the entire Caribbean region, showcasing the immense talent and global influence of Caribbean
artists.
In a heartfelt speech, DJ Puffy dedicated his award to everyone who has supported him
throughout his career, stating, “I want to dedicate this award to everyone who has been rocking
with me from day one—my management team and agents, family, my friends, and of course, the
people who show up and show love no matter where I am in the world.”
DJ Puffy also shared an exciting announcement about his absence from the award ceremony,
revealing, “I don’t think I’ve ever announced this officially but the reason I am not able to attend
tonight is because I’m performing at my Residency in Las Vegas. A huge accomplishment for a
Caribbean DJ and just a small example of how far we can go. For a kid from Barbados, this is
more than I’ve ever imagined.”
The International DJ of the Year award is a testament to DJ Puffy’s relentless dedication to his
craft and his ability to break barriers on the global stage. His victory is a beacon of inspiration
for other Caribbean DJs, as he encouraged them to “keep hustling, keep grinding, and keep
believing in your craft. The Caribbean is an incredible training ground for DJs and is filled with
so much talent. We are a force to be reckoned with! Let’s continue to elevate our sound, our
culture, and each other.”
DJ Puffy’s journey from Barbados to the world stage is a story of perseverance, passion, and the
power of Caribbean culture. His Las Vegas residency, a major achievement for any DJ,
underscores the heights that Caribbean talent can reach when given the opportunity.
He extended his gratitude to the organizers of the Caribbean Music Awards and expressed his
admiration for his fellow nominees, stating, “Big up to the organizers of this amazing event and
to all the nominees—being in the same category as you all is a privilege. This award isn’t just
mine; it’s for every DJ out there who is passionate about what they do.”
DJ Puffy’s historic win is not only a personal triumph but also a victory for the entire Caribbean,
shining a spotlight on the region’s rich cultural heritage and its influence on the global music
scene.
