A 15-year-old Delaware teen is making a name for herself in the music scene, having performed with artists like Meek Mill. Friday night, she was honored by the Sixers as part of International Women’s Day.
It’s showtime for DJ Sophia playing one of the biggest venues in the city. She was the guest DJ Friday night for halftime at the Sixers game in celebration of International Women’s Day."As being a young female DJ, there aren’t a lot of us out here," said Sophia. "There was a time women weren’t even doing something like this or be put in this light. So, I’m glad to be making history," she said. At 15-years-old, she is living her dream.
Sophia has been a DJ for 10 years. She started at 2-years-old and booked her first professional event when she was only six."It was an event with all kids my age at the elementary school and I fell in love with it, making the kids smile and dance," she said.Sophia is following in her father David’s footsteps, who was also a DJ. Friday, she had a mix of throwbacks, but also wanted to bring to fans a fresh, younger vibe for the occasion.
