DJ ALLYBI - NAIJA Mixes

ABOUT DJ ALLYBI

DJ Allybi personifies entertainment excellence and remains one of the most sought-after disc jockeys in his motherland, Tanzania. However, everything about him is special. Born Ali Selemani Simba in March 1986, he is not just celebrated in Tanzania alone but miles away in Nigeria. You will soon learn why, but here is some background about him.

The star-rated Tanzanian entertainer hails from Kilimanjaro, Moshi Township, to be specific. He attended Mawezi Primary School, so it was hard to finance his education. He describes his background as ‘very humble’, but against all odds, his parents, who mongered fish for a living, did all they could for him to attend school. He made it to Standard Seven, and he closed that chapter. It meant the beginning of the hardest phase in life because he was yet to figure out what he wanted in life.

DJ Allybi tried his hands on menial jobs such as being a sugarcane cutter, conductor, mechanic and potato peeler at a local hotel. But, he never lasted in these jobs because he was always looking for something better in life. The 36-year-old ended up being a professional gambler at the pool table. He transitioned into a cashier collecting money from his friends who frequented his pool table-playing base in Moshi for five months. It happened that he lied to one of his friends in town named Kassim that he was a DJ. Unknown to him, Kassim was a professional jockey at the time, where he taught himself the deejaying basics. He would even use a phone to select and mix songs.

He eventually got a permanent job in Kassim’s club, perfecting his disc jockeying skills. The Moshi-born celebrity was now ready to entertain the world. He knew what he wanted in life and taught himself everything he knows about his trade. Allybi made a huge leap and has worked with big names in the industry, such DJ Maphorisa from South Africa, Sauti Sol (Kenya), Patoranking (Ghana) and Maleek Berry from Nigeria.

As one of the Kings of NightLife in Tanzania, DJ Allybi has performed in many big and prestigious venues and events in Tanzania such as Upepo Garden in Dar Es Salaam, Kendwa Rocks in Zanzibar where he was one of headlining DJs at the Full Moon Party, First Of All FOA World Tour in Mwanza by Diamond Platnumz and also toured many regions in Tanzania such as Arusha and Morogoro.
