POJI RECORDS

"POJI Records is the brainchild of both DJ Pope and DJ Oji. Thus the name, POJI Record. DJ Pope (originally from Chicago) and DJ Oji (originally from New York), first met in Baltimore, MD at Morgan State University. After meeting, they soon discovered that although they were from different places, they both shared much in common. Specifically, speaking they had love music. Even more specific, they both loved House Music.

It was on that day, that a friendship and what would soon become a brotherhood bond was formed. Having both experienced many of the inevitable politics associated with the music industry, combined with the alienated feeling that comes with claiming a new territory, things were not moving a desirable pace. I suppose you could say that this was their "struggle". As a result, Pope and Oji (aka "The Brothers in the Struggle") came to realize that "time waits for no one". If it were to be done, they would have to do it themselves. With that spirit, mentality, and motivation, the duo established POJI Records back in 1993.
From vinyl to digital, the label has released hundreds of tracks crossing all genres in house music. The label has featured some of the industry's biggest names, most talented producers, artists and musicians. POJI Records has not only made a major contribution to the history of Baltimore and DC House Music, but the label has been responsible for introducing many talented, lessor known producers in the states as well as overseas.
POJI Records is now celebrating 26 years of House Music in all genres!
