Doremus "DJ Baby Boy" Thomas is a Cleveland-based DJ. He has been a DJ since 2006. He started as a Chopped and Screwed DJ because he loved the way the DJ mixed the song and kept it upbeat, even though it was slowed down. Being curious as to how the DJ was able to manipulate the tracks the way they did, DJ Baby Boy then decided he was going to learn the art of DJing by becoming a Chopped and Screwed DJ.

He would talk to them about their song and would then mix it for them while also offering them a chance at a broader audience.

DJ Baby Boy decided to learn how to become a radio DJ by going to The Ohio Media School in Cleveland in 2019. He also wanted to learn to produce music, so he signed up for their audio emphasis class.

His quality of work along with his discipline for things to be right, led him to be known to another station, VoiceitRadio.com, where he met Errol "EP" Porter.
