T’S PRETTY MIND BLOWING TO DISCOVER THAT A
DJ THIS ADROIT AND AUTHENTIC ONLY BEGAN MESSING
AROUND ON DECKS 4 YEARS AGO WHEN SHE MOVED
TO BARBADOS. What’s even more interesting is that she’s
a mom of three, a wife and a businesswoman. Actually,
there’s nothing that we learned about her that didn’t result
in a genuine jaw-dropping experience.
When you think of a female DJ who resides on these
shores, I’m pretty sure that DJ D.Luxe is not the typical
image that comes to mind and her sound is not what
you’d expect to hear. “I’ve always felt like my own self,”
D.Luxe shared while explaining why she’s always felt like
an “Other”.
Born in Spain, to a Spanish mom and Black dad, Dionna
revealed that as a child she struggled to distinguish herself
as being of exclusively black heritage or white heritage.
“I’ve never felt as if I fit into a specific category as a human
being,” Dionna expounded. Consequently, she isn’t
repressed by the normality of any social group. No labels,
no boxes, just whatever moves her soul.
