DJ L’Oqenz is a powerful force to be reckoned with. Her passion for music and undeniable skills on the turntables have made her a sought after commodity at home in Toronto and abroad. A true lover of music, she is not confined to one genre. Spinning everything from Hip Hop to Jazz - L’Oqenz has the ability to fuse them all effortlessly. She has toured across Canada, the United States and the UK, and has shared the stage some of the most respected artists in the business including Zaki Ibrahim, Motion, Jean Grae, Bahamadia, K’naan, M1 (Dead Prez), Prince Paul, Maseo (De La Soul) and Kool Herc. 2006 – 2008 L’Oqenz flexed her multitasking skills by working as Artist Manager and Executive Producer to Zaki Ibrahim. Presently, L’Oqenz is completing a production/art project under the alias NiteOwlNaps and she has been committed to bettering her community by setting aside time to teach and fundraise for various organizations in Toronto. Niteowlnaps – Niteowlnaps is an alias I picked up due to my nocturnal habits. Basically, it’s L’Oqenz past 2/3am… when I really get busy! After spending a long period of time in solitude, I learned a lil sumthin, sumthin about myself.... I see colour and sounds. www.myspace.com/niteowlnaps Special thanks to all the women who organized and participated in the WAM conference held last weekend in Boston, MA.
