Felix Sama

Biography

DJ. Host. Coach.
Culture Architect.

Felix Sama was born in Havana, Cuba — where rhythm and culture are woven into everyday life. His family moved to Chicago, where he discovered the underground music scene and began his lifelong relationship with the turntables.

Making his way to Miami as a young adult, Felix immersed himself in the city's freestyle, Latin, and hip-hop scenes. He built his reputation across clubs, radio stations, and private events — earning a name that would span four decades and cross international borders.

Known for his ability to read a crowd and own a room, Felix became a staple of Miami's culture — on the air as "Slammin' Felix Sama" on Power 96, on screen co-hosting live television on Telemundo's Mun2, and on stage at events from South Florida to the world stage.
