Leyland Lyken aka DJ SupaLee is a deaf poet and hip hop DJ from Brooklyn, NY. He hosted SUPAFEST in 2010 at Gallaudet University, university for the education of the deaf and hard of hearing in Washington, DC, as a movement for deaf entertainment; poetry, DJ performance, among others. As SupaLee puts it, “You don’t need to be deaf to attend a deaf event. If you’re disabled in any way, don’t allow yourself to become the victim. There are millions of people out there looking for people like you. So come on out and make yourself known.”
