Honoring Crazy Caz: DJ Cutt Nice, The Turntable Brotherhood, and a Legacy That Won’t Fade

When it comes to spinning records with precision, soul, and a deep love for the culture, few can match the consistency and cool of DJ Cutt Nice. With decades in the game and a reputation for keeping dance floors lit and spirits lifted, Cutt Nice isn’t just a DJ—he’s a cultural cornerstone.

But this Sunday, it’s more than a party. Cutt Nice will return to the turntables for a deeply personal purpose: honoring the life and legacy of his cousin, mentor, and DJ brother—Brandon “DJ Crazy Caz” Henderson at A Memorial Celebration for Caz “The Final Set” Day Party This event isn’t just about music—it’s a celebration of life, legacy, and the beats that bring us together even through grief.

Paying a tribute to Caz through music is what he plans to do. During this Set, Payne will also be joined by two other Lansing Legendary DJs, DJ Hollywood and DJ Butcher, spinning tunes in honor of DJ Crazy Caz.

For Brian Payne, this set hits different. It’s a tribute to the man who helped shape his journey. Caz didn’t just inspire him, he helped teach him how to move a crowd, how to respect the craft, and how to lead with heart behind the booth. That influence lives on every time Cutt Nice touches a turntable.

The upcoming event is more than just a tribute—it’s a gathering of the community. A space where laughter, tears, and memories will mix with basslines and hi-hats. And at the heart of it will be Cutt Nice, making sure the vibes are exactly what Caz would have wanted: uplifting, unforgettable, and full of love.

Come out this Sunday and show your support. Let the music move you—and let’s celebrate the life of a hometown legend, led by one of the city’s finest.
