THE BIODJ Ghost has had her fingers in the mix going on 20 years. She chooses to be a quiet fixture in the industry only making appearances - just as apparitions do - when she feels the desire to. Dubbed by her peers as "Mistress of the Blend" and "The First Lady", DJ Ghost has rubbed elbows with and garnished respect from the best of them.
Ghost started her musical endeavor during high school when she saw Spinderella in a Salt n Pepa video. Already familiar with DJing due to her grandfather being a sought-after DJ in Rhode Island, it was game over when she was introduced to the scratch and blend on a Technic.
Ghost has graced many clubs in the New England Area including the legendary Jovan's where she was a resident DJ for 3 years, earning her an honorable mention in Source Magazine as "the top female DJ in the New England area." After winning DJ competitions and many public appearances, Ghost became an in-demand DJ (second only to her mentor DJ Buck) and was approached to work the college radio arena. She held down shows for Bryant College's WJMF with The New and Improved Show and The Ladies Room (now on www.diradiocast.com).
A member of The TastemakerDJ crew in Atlanta and one of the founding members of the 5 Star Generals, DJ Ghost now calls Atlanta her home. Ghost has traveled everywhere from Europe to Miami to work the tables. Currently she chooses to open for her 5 Star teammates and make only guest appearances from time to time. "I've done the club, mobile, mixtape circuit, had standing ovations - everything – so I'm not trying to be a superstar this late in the game," she chuckles, "but if it happens, it happens." Ghost strives to make sure women stay in a respected light in Hip Hop.
She also teaches the younger generations about the pioneers of Hip Hop to make sure they never forget how it all started and that pioneers get the respect they deserve. Ghost is part of the movement to bring the heart of Hip Hop back – not just a way to make quick money.
DJ Ghost can be heard on The Ladies Room everyday on DiRadiocast.com: a new show posts every Tuesday . Also .. Thursdays on 91.1 WREK, the Wrekroom Renaissance with her 5 Star General crew (check back to this page for the day(s).
