About DJ Dollar
Success has been written and etched in stone, when your birth name is Dollar. Achieving aspirations and goals are DJ Dollar's focus and settling for less is not an option for this West African native. Dollar Agbemadon, better known as DJ Dollar was born in Accra, Ghana on September 23, 1992 to Joseph and Monique Agbemadon. Dollar, the youngest of three siblings, has spent most of his time in schools in Ghana; Crown Prince Academy, Morning Star school and Lincoln Community School. Currently, he is attending West Virginia University majoring Business administration with a minor in PR and French.
Throughout the years, DJ Dollar has devoted a significant amount of time and energy to music. Devoting a significant amount of time and energy to music in his teens and his love for the art of DJing gave him a strong positive affirmation to pursue this as a full-time business. In 2005, DJ Dollar was given the opportunity to turn his admiration into reality at a college party in Brittany, France. "By simply performing a baby scratch several times on the record, I felt a strong positive feeling that run through my body," says DJ Dollar.
