He made a lot of demos but after fruitlessly searching for a record label to support him, he started the work of a DJ. With the support of his brothers, Jimmy was able to establish a studio (JATT studio) and he eventually changed his stage name to DJ Jimmy Jatt, in honour of his brothers, who were called Jimmy, Amu, Tunde, and Tayo. The studio was located on strategic Odo street, which helped him reach an eager audience who took to his “deejaying” skills and hip-hop in general.
