I just wanted to answer the same questions that are asked by many.
How Long have you been dj'ing?
-October of 2010 will make it 2 years
What inspired you to start dj'ing?
-Growing up I always loved music. When i was a little kid i used to mess with the volume switch to act like i was scratching lol. But being a former Model, none of the djs that I know in Atlanta took me serious about djing, but my real good friend Dj Scream really did influence me to take it seriously.His humbleness is what really inspired me.
who taught you how to dj?
-Dj Dre. We never went to the studio, or toe jams, or anywhere to really practice. He taught me hands on at the club
How'd you get your name?
- My name was given to me by Dj Dre. Legion of Doom Djs/ U.G Djs/ Lod College tour ceo. Not only did he teach me how to dj, but we became real good friends. Business partners, and a mentor to me in this dj game. So the time we got to know each other we learned about one another. He noticed that i am a slick talker, i can easily get my way,change subjects,and plead the 5th without even saying it..lol He always said you stay talking game. so we are going to tcall you talk game. Trust me once you get to know me you will say that it best fits me
Do you remember the first time you dj'ed at a club?
-Yes! It was at club scores on wesley chapel road. and I never got a chance to practice, because dre taught me how to dj at the club.he showed me the basics, handed me the headphones and told me to go head,and if i fuck up the crowd is gonna boo me, so i better not mess up lol it was great
How do you feel about not having a traditional feminine name?
-Well I love it! Starting out i just needed a name so i stuck with Dj Madi Wit Da Phatty. but the reason why i stopped modeling is because i wanted to turn down the sexual image i gave off to people and be respected for something else. but i was told by a real known dj not to have my name because it was not feminine, such as dj princess cutz, mami chula, diamind cuts, dj dimpiece and ect.. but i didnt listen. I love it when i go to a venue in my skinny jeans, heels,nails,and make up and tell people that i am a dj.lol i get the weirdest looks because they expect to see a male
Does it ever get tough for you?
-Sometimes I can say it does. I am also a college student.Majoring in Pre Med Biology and Criminology. So I have to balance that, which i am doing a great job of. And some people dont take me serious about dj'ing because I am a female.and Unfortunately some men still think with their penis, and not wallet. It's lucrative, but with my determination,and grind i will prove plenty wrong and earn the respect that i want.
What are your goals ?/What do you have coming up?
-Well i plan on making a impact in the streets of Atlanta. There is very few female djs here. Which is a surprise to me and others. I dont want to be the typical graphic tee,pants,and kicks dj..I want males to know that a female can rock a crowd just as well as a man, and sometimes even better. I also plan on finally dropping a mixtape this year, and to continue traveling and doing shows in the southeast region of the U.S. Im also looking into getting into radio on XM radio.
PLUS! I am still the administrative assistant and Dj for the LOD College tour thar still goes down every semester at a different college. For more info visit http://www.lodcollegetour.com
Are you currently dj'ing at any spots?
-I am nowhere right now permanently, but from time to time i am located at club Bankhead On Wednesday for their WestSide Wednesdays!
If you could work with any artist or dj right now who would it be?
-I would definitely work with Yo Gotti. I love this man's humbleness and music. Also Rasheeda,and I cant forget about Gucci Mane.As far as Dj I would definitely like to work with my good friend/inspiration Dj Scream. hmmmm may have something cooking. Just tune in and see
