DJ Hurricane (born Wendell Fite) is a hip hop DJ, producer and rapper. He is known for his work as the Beastie Boys' DJ. He was a member of the groups Solo Sounds and The Afros and recorded three solo albums, featuring many well known artists such as the Beastie Boys and Talib Kweli. One of New York's premier hip-hop artists on the turntables, DJ Hurricane fostered his skills alongside Run D.M.C. in the Hollis, Queens area of New York City before eventually hooking up with the Beastie Boys, where he made a name for himself as the group's DJ before going on to release his own albums. Hurricane began rhyming at the age of 11, during hip-hop's infancy, eventually forming a group called the Solo Sounds and later the Afros. While serving as one of Run D.M.C. 's body guards on the 1986 Raising Hell tour, he became friends with the Beastie Boys, who were the tour's opening act. It wasn't long before the Beasties offered Hurricane an opportunity to be their exclusive DJ. As the Beasties rose to fame with each successive album in the 1990s, Hurricane simultaneously reveled in the spotlight, releasing his first solo album in 1995 on Grand Royal, titled The Hurra. Five years later in late 2000, after having parted ways with the Beasties prior to their album Hello Nasty in 1998, Hurricane released his second album, Don't Sleep, which found him much more conceptually collected and with a broad scope of guest artists, including Kool G Rap, Xzibit, Scott Weiland, Public Enemy, Rah Digga, Talib Kweli, and others.

È conosciuto soprattutto per la sua lunga collaborazione con il gruppo hip hop dei Beastie Boys, durata dal 1988 al 1998, anno in cui è stato sostituito definitivamente da Mix Master Mike. Negli ultimi anni ha realizzato tre album da solista, avvalendosi della collaborazione di varie personalità del mondo hip hop statunitense Messosi in luce come rapper molto presto, già all'età di undici anni, Wendell cominciò subito ad esercitarsi ai piatti. Dopo una breve collaborazione con i Run DMC, alla fine degli anni ottanta conobbe i Beastie Boys, allora alla ricerca di un nuovo deejay. Nacque così un lungo periodo di collaborazione, alla cui fine Fite decise di intraprendere una carriera solista, inframezzata comunque dall'ingresso come dj in due gruppi, "Solo Sounds" ed "Afros".
