With Panamanian roots and Brooklyn grit, DJ POPO (Humberto Perel) brings an unstoppable presence to every stage he commands.

Known for his deep, infectious grooves and fearless ability to fuse genres, POPO ignites dance floors from intimate venues to high-energy festival crowds across Jamaica, Aruba, Colombia, and the Dominican Republic. His dynamic performance style weaves rich textures of synth, soul, and rhythm, elevating every crowd into a full-body experience.

Fresh off winning the 2025 Baltimore and Denver Blend Battles—and a top contender in the 2024 TWEAK World Music Blend Battle—POPO’s momentum is undeniable. He was handpicked for DJ Jazzy Jeff’s 2024 Playlist Retreat and now hosts his first international radio show on Atlanta’s Majic 107.5/97.5.

He’s rocked live stages alongside artists like Chrisette Michele, Donell Jones, and Anthony David, and his turntable mastery has been tapped by major names like BET, Verzuz, Camille Rose, Macy’s, and 23andMe.

Whether energizing cultural festivals or turning branded events into sonic experiences, DJ POPO doesn’t just play music—he builds moments that resonate.
