Show Notes
Brian “Soberthedj” Henry is a Boston Massachusetts native trailblazing through both underground and international music scenes with records like “Want Me” and “Mari,” both featured on his debut project Cult Chameleon. With his Jamerican open format DJ style, he has gone from touring/opening up for artists like Danny Brown, Juicewrld, Skimask the slump god, and more with DJ sets, to working with publishing labels and heading up their executive production departments, which then progressed to songwriting. Currently, working on his Debut Album “Nativ,” home to the Single “Vibes In The Room,” Sober is a force to be reckoned with, and with his prevalent sound, he can’t be put into a box and looks to fill the void the industry has for a universal artist.
Also, he has been sober his entire life. His journey gets weird with temptation and while helping others stay on the raw side of things.
