About the artist

When it comes to earning a spot on the Hot 100, there’s unusual, and then there’s *unusual*. DJ Luke Nasty, 25, who went from playing the saxophone in his high school band, to DJing at his college radio station, to three weeks at no. 1 on Rap Airplay (and 10 weeks on the Hot 100) with his off-the-cuff rendition of Anderson.
