DJ Handle: Mr. Jennings What it means: I feel like my full name is a little too long, and the Mr. adds a touch of silliness to the whole deal.

What it means: I was really into the Miami bass scene when I was younger. I always had a car with a huge stereo, and I would just ride around blasting music as loud as I could take it, broadcasting the new music I loved. Something about the word "Bassix" just stuck.
