Dance and music are for only men or women, it means that DJ world is not just a men’s world! At the end everyone will judge what you’ve done. It means, that I want to show that things like positiv impact, education, music, performing or fashion, entertaintment of the crowd can be in value. I hope I can change public opinion about female DJ.
