Why “snake” for DJ Snake?
William Grigahcine, known as Dj Snake, is a record breaker in the electro-music industry. Growing up in the French working-class areas, DJ Snake got in trouble for painting graffiti on the walls of Ermont when he was young. As he managed to escape from the police several times, people started to call him “Snake”, which did not take long before becoming his stage name.
He started making music at 20 and played in a club in Paris, where he met Steve Goncalves, his manager, who pushed him to pursue his music career.
