DJ and Audio Engineer

Toledo, Ohio

Bonita Appleblunt made their move from Toledo, Ohio, to Chicago in 2014, emerging as a sonic storyteller and cultural connector, weaving diasporic rhythms into dancefloor revolutions. With East African roots, their sets radiate Afro-diasporic heat—from amapiano to baile funk to soul-soaked house—blending eclectic genres and generations in hypnotic harmony. More than a DJ, Bonita Appleblunt is a movement: a beat-based balm and bold voice for liberation through sound, creating spaces across the U.S. where Black and queer joy take center stage.
