DJ WannaB may or may not be R. Kenner French—entrepreneur, philanthropist, and music enthusiast with a mission. When behind the decks, it’s not about fame or flash—
it’s about using music as a vehicle for connection and change.
Oh yeah, he is beatdeaf, colorblind, and doesn't know the set list until the needle drops - hence, "the Chaos DJ."
Some proceeds go to charitable causes, turning every beat into a ripple of impact.
“Music should make you feel something. I’m just here to make sure the journey is memorable.”
