Starr Nícole (nee-cole) "The R&B Mami" is an all around quadruple threat. CEO, Radio

Personality, Makeup Artist and Mixtape DJ. Born and raised on the

South Side of Chicago, She started her DJing career at the age of 16.

"Nobody knew that I wanted to be a Radio DJ I kept it a secret. My

family thought I would be a singer because my mom and dad were

singers. I didn't want to do that, I wanted to be behind the mic

introducing the records instead of singing them."



After graduating from high school, Starr Nícole attended Broadcasting

school majoring in Radio Broadcasting turning down acceptance at

Columbia College Chicago, "I knew I didn't want to sit behind a desk

reading books for four years, I needed to go to Broadcasting School."



Holding down a Saturday & Tuesday afternoon slot on the schools radio

station 107.3 WICB, she practiced her on-air talent, being nicknamed

"The R&B Mami" by her fans. "I was popular and I didn't even

know it, it was crazy" While attending school she interned at Chicago's radio

station B96 with DJ's Stylz & Roman at B96's Six Flags Summer Studio.

"Styles and Roman helped me really want to get into radio." Still

working hard at her craft she perfected her demo and sent it out to

various radio stations.



Radio wasn't the only thing Starr Nícole wanted to pursue. After class

she would go to her mentor's house to practice on his set of

turntables. "I finally let it be known that I wanted to be a mixing

DJ. A classmate of mine contacted a friend of a friend by the name of

DJ Dimepiece. He told her about me, I hit her up and she told me I

should put together a mixtape to get my name out to the public." Starr

Nícole took Dimepiece's advice and ran with it. She went to work on

her very first mixtape.



Mixing old and new school helped Starr Nícole understand the history

of music new and old, hip hop and r&b. Being a fan of old & new school

helped her mix songs in her own unique way. "I'm on my girlie grind

right now. Along with that, I'm aiming to be the first known Chicago

female spin tress."



When asked who she looks up to in the DJ game female wise Starr Nícole

notes Sundance, DJ Jazzy Joyce, DJ Dimepiece and DJ K-Sly. "All of the

DJs that I look up to are very talented. Seeing how successful they

are, makes me want to work even harder to get to where they are in

their careers." In 2007 DJ Starr Nícole became an Official Slip N Slide/Atlantic Records DJ. 2008 is destined to be Starr Nícole's year. "I want people

to go, oh, that's Starr Nícole huh? She's hot!"
