EMBRACING ALL FORMS OF ARTISTRY: A CONVERSATION WITH LOCAL DJ JEROME BAKER III Despite the slowdown most people and systems all over the world are facing because of Covid-19, Jerome Baker III hasn’t stopped creating, DJing and learning. Many of us are leaning into this newfound time at home to take up a new project or skill, and Baker is no exception. The D.C.-based artist is always on the climb toward something new, and even though he’s no longer able to DJ in the traditional sense, his shift toward an adapted version of his craft came quickly and naturally.
