ones and twos.



ones and twos.
DJ RASHIDA


she's a turn table phenom, who has worked with many artists such as Jay Z, Kanye West (hehe), and The Roots. But, she got her big break when she was discovered by Prince at her "i do my thang" gig at the House of Blues, on the Sunset Strip. That's where he became her mentor and took her on tour with him to DJ at his after parties and legendary post-Oscar parties.

She is now an in-house DJ for MTVs America's Best Dance Crew. ( What! What! that is my show. im not going to rant about it but, let me just say how upset I am that FANNY PACK got kicked off. yes, i was voting aka texting for them. smh. back to Ra!) "In high school, I'd be sneaking out to go to raves, ska clubs, dance halls." said the 27 year old, ATL native. After graduating, Rashida was spinning at parties for lifestyle brand Frank151, and soon moved to LA, where the rest was history.

She now spends a lot of time spinning in Manhattan hotspots, Tenjune and Butter. Hopefully, if i get a chance to rock my party shoes, ill be able to back it up to her spins. This chick is more than on the come up. She's there. "DJ Rashida has established herself as one of the most sought-after female DJs in the world." And no matter who's in her inner circle, or what renowed artists she's working with. she still seems to stay grounded...unlike the rest of Hollywood. okaaaaaaay!! that always takes a number one artist to off the charts. cant wait for my limelight, lol. seriously joking. http://www.myspace.com/djrashida and www.DJRASHIDA.COM

until next time, peace<3.
