He was a drummer before he was a DJ — and he never put the sticks down.
R-Five performs live percussion over his own mixes, in real time. It is the one thing on any lineup that the next DJ with the same playlist cannot copy — and it is why promoters book him when they want a set the crowd actually remembers.
Stanley Pierre, professionally known as DJ R-Five and called “Nèg Bagèt La” across the Nord, is a Haitian DJ, performer and cultural manager from Cap-Haïtien with more than ten years in DJing and live musical animation. He grew up in a household that lived on music and was playing drums long before he ever touched a controller. His philosophy is direct: DJing is not “putting on music” — it is a craft, a discipline and a form of artistic expression. R-Five builds performances, not playlists.
Ten years of clubs, hotels, festivals and school events — across four departments.
Live drums over the deck — straight from the street in Cap-Haïtien.
