DJ D-Nice's Instagram is officially the place to be.

On Saturday night, the multi-hyphenate hosted another installment of his Homeschoolin’: Social Distancing Dance Party—an Instagram Live broadcast in which he spins hours and hours of hip-hop and R&B classics.

D-Nice launched the online event earlier this week as a way to help others cope with the ongoing global health crisis. In the week since Donald Trump declared a national emergency over the novel coronavirus, people across the country have been social distancing—a strategy that aims to slow the spread of the disease by increasing physical space between others. It's a necessary practice that can save countless lives, but it can prove difficult for people who enjoy the company of others.

That's where DJ D-Nice comes in.

"Music is a vibration. It is a universal language. It is who I am. It is what I do as a DJ," the Bronx native told AllHipHop earlier this week. "It is a part of my life's purpose to help people relax and enjoy themselves. What was just a whim has become a movement in less than 4 Days. I am honored by love and support."

The Saturday night party has drawn over 100,000 viewers, including boldface names like Rihanna, Bernie Sanders, Dwyane Wade, Janet Jackson, Michelle Obama, and Mark Zuckerberg, among others.
