The death of DJ D Baby, a Houston DJ on the upswing, rocked the Texas music scene last week. According to reports, the artist known as Darian Lewis died after accidentally falling and being hospitalized.
Baby DJ D’s death was confirmed in her mother Terri Lewis’ Facebook post published late Wednesday night.

Who was Darian Lewis aka DJ D Baby?
Darian Lewis was a Houston, Texas, DJ and entrepreneur on the rise. Just two weeks before her death, she turned 23 years old. Lewis had wanted to DJ since childhood and began learning the trade after starting college at Texas Southern University. She had received a large portion of DJ-ing equipment from her family as a graduation present.
DJ D Baby began booking performances and building her own network of connections in the business shortly after that. The most difficult aspect, she opined in an interview with Voyage, was being a woman in the club music industry.
