What is the story behind Curate Entertainment?

There are DJs, and then there’s Curate.

Founded and led by Malike Adigun, Curate is a collective of creative talent known for changing the room. We don’t just play music; we don’t just produce great parties. We shape the energy, read the moment, and build the night.

At Curate, joy isn’t just the philosophy. It’s the standard. It guides every set, every transition, and every detail that will be remembered long after last call.

This isn’t background music. This isn’t another vendor assignment. This is soundscapes at the highest level, performance anatomy at play, and joy as a service.

This is Curate.

What are you waiting for? HIRE NOW!

There's a reason why Curate is the most sought DJ in SWFL! DJ Leonard was incredible! The whole process of selecting music and finalizing the itinerary was seamless. So easy! They have everything that you select and answer in an app! I had thought it would be hard to get people dancing but DJ Leonard had everyone on the dance floor the ENTIRE time! I received so many compliments about how awesome the music was, that it was one of the best weddings they've ever been to! DJ Leonard was even out dancing with everyone! I would recommend them over and over again!

Amazing experience

We cannot recommend DJ A-Rich and The curate team enough! Alvin was the sweetest man and truly brought the party of our dreams to life. He knew exactly how to read the room, keep the energy high, and make sure the dance floor was packed all night. He played such a huge part in making the night unforgettable. If you want a DJ who is not only incredibly talented but also an absolute pleasure to work with, look no further!

DJ Leonard!!

DJ Leonard!! 10/10! We couldn't have asked for a better entertainment experience. He is an absolutely amazing DJ and MC and kept everyone engaged the entire night. He understood the vibe we wanted and didn't miss with a single song. The dance floor was full the entire night, with DJ Leonard joining us on the dance floor to keep the energy high! So many of our guests say he was one of their favorite aspects of the evening. Saxophonist Isaiah is also so talented and made cocktail hour fun for our guests. Curate Entertainment is an exceptional group and we would not hesitate to recommend them to our friends and family!!

Everything We Hoped for and More

I don't even know how to start this review because my husband and I were completely blown away by Curate. When we thought about our wedding, we knew the music was going to be the most important thing for us and our expectations were high. After a long search, we decided to have a violinist at the ceremony, saxophonist at the cocktail hour and for the reception, DJ RyanLove and the combo fusion band with the saxophone and drummer and we couldn't have been happier. We had the BEST time dancing at our wedding and all of our guests the next day remarked how amazing all of the music was and how high the vibes were. DJ RyanLove is incredible and created the exact kind of experience we were looking for. If you are looking for a DJ to make your wedding memorable for you and your guests, he is the one. Everyone at Curate was amazing and professional. It was easy to communicate with them and the music planning website they used was so easy and fun. We are forever grateful to Ryan and the Curate team for making our day the best one of our lives, thank you!!!!

Jerren is a complete legend!!

We worked with Curate Entertainment (Jerren specifically) to provide DJ and hybrid band services for our wedding in April of 2026 in Solvang, California. Curate Entertainment is such a professional organization from top to bottom, every DJ we interacted with felt cool, responsive, polished, and organized, which gave us so much confidence going in. They also have a bunch of great add-ons we were excited to include to make the party even more fun. Jerren himself was our DJ, and he is not only incredibly talented but also has an amazing sense of vibes and style for different parts of the event. He gave us great tools to share our favorite songs and our do-not-play list, while still leaving room for imagination as we got closer to the wedding. Every conversation we had with him felt like we were on the same wavelength, and he always brought some special something extra that made the whole playlist and music feel incredible. He was able to fill in the blanks and match the vibes we were dreaming about without us having to dictate everything, and when we were more specific, he was totally happy going with the flow and even enhancing it with a few of his own ideas that felt perfect. He's also such a genuinely cool and kind person that his energy brought the whole crowd to life, and he showed up looking sharp, matching the occasion perfectly. We partied all night long, and there wasn't a single moment that felt slow, it was electric from start to finish, and Jerren drove that energy the entire time. We hope we get to see him perform again soon!

The Heart and Energy Every Event Needs

DJ Mando was absolutely phenomenal! From the moment he took over, he kept the energy high and the dance floor full. He read the room perfectly, played an incredible mix of music, and created such a fun, nostalgic atmosphere that fit our 90s charity event perfectly.

Beyond his talent as a DJ, DJ Mando is truly a beautiful human being, inside and out. He wasn't just a vendor he was part of the team. Throughout the planning process and even on the day of the event, he constantly checked in to ask if I needed help with anything and genuinely wanted to make sure everything ran smoothly. That level of kindness, generosity, and support is something you don't come across every day.

He is professional, incredibly talented, and someone who truly cares about the success of your event. Our guests had an amazing time, and so many people commented on how much they loved the music.

Thank you, DJ Mando, for helping make our Magic Hour Foundation event such an unforgettable night. I wholeheartedly recommend DJ Mando and the Curate Entertainment team to anyone looking not only for an amazing DJ, but for someone who genuinely cares about the people he works with.

Incredible Wedding Anniversary

DJ Dre and Curate were a vibe! We celebrated our 10th anniversary at Hotel Haya’s Flor Fina and Dre made the night unforgettable! He was attentive and adaptive to our family’s needs and blended our music beautifully. DJ Dre connected with us right away and we knew we were in good hands! He is so talented! Curate’s app for music was so helpful and easy to use and the photo booth was such a great add-on. Their design team even helped us to design the overlay for the photo booth images to match our celebration’s designs. A+ with Curate!!!!!

DJ Leonard DJ Experience

We hired DJ Leonard for our wedding at the Powell Crosley Estate and he absolutely crushed it. Before the big day, he took the time to sit down with us, get to know our taste, and really understand the vibe we were going for. That preparation made all the difference — when the night came, it felt like he already knew exactly what we wanted.

His playlist curation was spot on. Every song felt intentional, flowing seamlessly from one to the next and perfectly matching the energy of each moment throughout the night. Nothing felt generic or off — it was clear he had actually listened to us during that meeting and translated it into something special.

The dance floor was packed all night and the atmosphere was everything we dreamed of. DJ Leonard didn't just play music — he made our wedding day truly memorable. If you're getting married at the Powell Crosley Estate or anywhere else, do yourself a favor and book him. You won't regret it.
