This is her story.
Early Life and Background
Born Beatrice Mureithi, she is better known by her stage name, DJ Racey 254. She grew up in Kenya, where music and creativity naturally shaped her path. Like many great entertainers, she discovered her love for music early on and nurtured it with dedication and resilience.
What sets DJ Racey apart from many in the entertainment industry is not just her skill, but her bold decision to pursue formal training to perfect her craft. She enrolled in a DJ Academy, a move that provided her with both technical knowledge and professional discipline.
Her journey into the professional world began with an attachment at Umoja in 2021. This experience opened the door to real-world exposure, teaching her how the industry operates while sharpening her talent behind the decks.
After her attachment, DJ Racey wasted no time. She jumped straight into the business, performing in diverse settings and proving her worth in an industry known for stiff competition.
Her dedication quickly paid off as she began performing on major platforms, including:
Beyond media houses, she has been a star attraction for:
Entertainment companies

Private events and weddings
Her ability to adapt to different audiences — from live TV to intimate weddings — shows not only her versatility but also her growing brand appeal.
It is rare for a DJ in such a short time to establish such a wide footprint, but DJ Racey’s story is proof that dedication and consistency can catapult one to success faster than expected.
Crowning Achievement: ETA Best DJ of the Year 2025
In 2025, DJ Racey’s hard work and rising influence were officially recognized when she was crowned Best DJ of the Year at the ETA Awards.
For her, the award was more than just a trophy — it was a recognition of years of effort, late nights, sacrifices, and unrelenting belief in her dream. It symbolized her growth from a student at a DJ academy to a household name celebrated across Kenya.
Speaking about the win, DJ Racey dedicated the award to her fans:
“To my fans I dedicate this ETA Award to you, for believing and loving what I deliver. To everyone who books this brand, God bless you. You are the reason why I keep moving. A happy client is always my priority.”
This moment solidified her position not only as a successful DJ but also as a role model for upcoming entertainers, especially young women who dream of breaking into the male-dominated DJ industry.
For DJ Racey, inspiration doesn’t come from accolades alone. What fuels her passion is the daily experience of growth — mastering new skills, pushing boundaries, and watching her journey unfold.
“Experiencing my growth each and every day inspires me to really want to be great,” she explains.
Her mindset is simple but powerful: progress is the ultimate motivation. Each small victory, each satisfied client, and each moment behind the decks is a stepping stone toward greatness.
Community Engagement and Youth Empowerment
One of the strongest pillars of DJ Racey’s identity is her commitment to giving back. Unlike many who focus solely on personal success, she takes time to inspire and uplift others, especially the youth.
Her partnership with the Ashidi Kiambu Community Organisation (AKCO) is a shining example of this. She has participated in events such as the Youth Convention, which brought together over 750 young people, offering them a platform to showcase their talents and learn from role models like her.
“I really enjoy going back to the community to give back and inspire my fellow youths, like what we are doing with AKCO,” she shares.
Her involvement in community activities shows that she is not only an entertainer but also a leader and mentor, using her success to open doors for others.
Vision and Future Goals
