DJ Hollywood (born Anthony Holloway; December 10, 1954) is an American
MC and disc jockey.[1]
Career
In 1978 and 1979, DJ Hollywood was the first DJ to bring turntables and a mixer to perform at the Apollo Theater.[2] Before long, club owners in the South Bronx hired Hollywood to play at a club called Club 371.[2]
Most of DJ Hollywood’s body of musical work was live, not recorded, although he did release a single "Shock Shock The House" in 1980 on
drug addiction. He has since returned to performing in the New York City area, appearing with Tha Veteranz which reunited him with his former partner Lovebug Starski.[3]
