DJ Biography

Javier Molina, aka DJ Baby Boricua, was born January 4th, 1980 in Ponce, Puerto Rico, but was raised in Boston. Music was always a strong force in his life. Baby Boricua got his first taste as a DJ at the young age of 13, DJaying at a family event. Since then it was, in his words, “music all the way”. After that, he gained more experience, playing at birthday parties, quinceañeros, weddings and slowly building his reputation. At that point, he realized that this could be his calling. Being up there was like a revelation for Baby Boricua. The rush that he felt, being able to make people dance, seeing the crowd respond, giving them what they wanted, all proved to him that he had found where he needed to be, and the people responded. “When people started calling for me by name, and as demand grew, I knew it was for a reason. I loved being able to make people dance enjoy themselves.

It was DJ Rip Hernandez who got Boricua his first real club gig. He also served as a mentor, showing Boricua the ropes, and how the club scene worked. He also gave Boricua the most valuable piece of advice he ever received, and he never forgot it: “Play each night like it’s gonna be your last”. Boricua knows to keep it new, to keep it fresh, and never to give a lackluster performance. As a DJ, he quickly learned that diversity was the key to success. It’s a part of his job to stay up on the latest songs and styles in all of the music genres like Reggaeton, Hip-Hop, Dancehall, Bachata, Salsa and Merengue, and the variety shows in the many different artists he’s worked with, including Don Omar, Cuban Link, Joseph, Zion & Lennox, and others.
