DJ Cassidy - New York Post Alexa - December 2018

What does one of the world’s most famous and fashionable emcees pack for jetsetting to VIP gigs around the globe? If you’re DJ Cassidy, you’ve got it figured out — right down to a spare pair of fresh white Adidas kicks just in case.

Raised on New York City’s Upper East Side, Cassidy Podell, 37, got an early start on the turntables: His parents granted his wish for two of them (and a mixer) on his 10th birthday. His talent quickly caught the eye — and ear — of Diddy, who began hiring the young mix-master for gigs. His most A-list booking of all? It’s a toss-up between Barack Obama’s 2009 Inaugural Ball and Beyoncé’s wedding to Jay-Z.
