Meet Ten Year Old DJ Switch, Taking the World By Storm

“The Way To Get Started Is To Quit Talking And Begin Doing.” – Walt Disney.

Erica Armah Bra-Bulu Tandoh, commonly known as DJ Switch, is a young female disk jockey from Ghana. At the age of twelve, she is a singer, rapper, poet, dancer, motivational speaker, and actress. Erica is from Dadieso in the Western Region of Ghana and is a student of Talented Royals International School at Weija in Accra. 

Erica’s career took off when she was just seven years old. She hates to see those around her unhappy and tries to switch their mood, hence the name DJ Switch. 

Erica had no knowledge of the DJ yet mastered it within five days of training at nine. Ever since she won Ghana’s Most Talent Kids 2017, there has been no stopping. From CNN to BBC, the world is going gaga over this young star.

Erica says, “I picked the name DJ Switch because I switch up people’s happiness. I am not only a DJ but also a poet, dancer, motivational speaker, actress, and advocate. I also want my parents, teachers, CNN, BBC or France24 and the world to know that being a DJ is just the beginning of my goals, I want to become a gynecologist and help women around the world eventually.”

DJ Switch’s Achievements

In June 2018, Erica won Ghana’s Annual DJ Award, and she was the youngest awardee. Roc nation, the legendary Jay-Z’s entertainment company, featured her on their social media for Black History Month.
