DANIELLE DI THE JAMAICAN CLEOPATRA

Music and sex may speak the same universal language. When we think about the Reggae/Dancehall music industry in particular sex has always played an important role in an artist expression and that’s the naked truth. Female artist who have the right stuff takes pleasure in using their lyrics to accent their sexy: With that fact they put it on the world; From Grace Jones to Lady Saw. The world has had to at times hold their breath in anticipation of Jamaican sexy.  Danielle DI is one such artist who knows that she has the goods, and she is a far cry away from being afraid to show it off; in her music, videos, and photographs; making her a certified Jamaican boomshell. Danielle DI has been in the music business for some time now, and has evolved into what some may call a "Rebel Mouth" Diva who has dropped some of the hottest lyrics as a female in the Reggae/Dancehall industry in a long time.

Not many women out there hold such confidence in their bodies, but for DI she wears her sexy like a badge; Roadshow Ja; would like to suggest that Danielle DI may be todays image of a Jamaica Cleopatra, but don't get it confused, she is a microphone murderer with skills that match her beauty, her career has been nothing but stellar releasing hit after hit with catchy one-liners, and choruses that, you'll here in passing; as everyday people go about their day with her lyrics on their minds, but it doesn't stop there; Roadshow Ja decided to do a little digging to see how viable of a artist Danielle DI is in the cyber world; to make it in the music industry today you must have a cyber-presence, and we were impressed; on Google her name has been searched more than 9 million times in different variation, over 150k fans throughout the social networks, and over 13 million hits to her video content worldwide.

Danielle DI is on a major assault for 2014; with one thing on her mind; success. Road Show Ja reached out to Danielle D.I. for a one on one with her and her plans for the future; this is what she had to say:

DD: Who is Danielle D.I.?   

DI:  Danielle is a humble easy going individual however D.I. is a fiery rebel. I decided to merge the names to show so the public could get the idea of the best of both worlds.

DD: How would you describe your style of music?

DI:  My style is female empowerment motivated. The industry is male dominated thus, the ladies need a voice. I try to be real. Expressing things most are afraid to say. The topics vary, on everything we girls talk about behind closed doors, what makes us tick plus the issues we face.

DD: How hard is it for a female to make it in the Reggae/Dancehall music industry, and what gives you that edge?

DI:  Its extremely hard! It's not because the females don't wanna work. Female artiste do extremely well in other genres. I think we don't get a fair chance in ours. It sexism play a major factor; as we face a lot of sociological, and economical issues.

DD: You have no problem flaunting that sexy body in pictures and music videos, etc.; how important is image to you?

DI: Image is everything! The saying is true, so I ensure I'm on point and not only in appearance, but with my reputation too.

DD: We know the ladies have no problem throwing themselves at male artist, but what is it like for you as a female artist with so much sex appeal to have men throw themselves at you?

DI:  LOL Isn't that something? Male "groupies" are definitely out there and I love them. They motivate me. When people give you their time and attention you've got to appreciate that.

DD: You just ended rjr's Cross Country Tour, what was it like with your being on the road with the other artist, and what was it like to feel so much love from fans?

DI:  It was awesome! I had a great time; spending time with my peers was fabulous we got a great chance to bond. I even got ill on the bus, and to see how gospel artiste Omario came quickly to assist me was incredible; everyone was concerned about me; was Its like were all family. The fans gave me a different drive it was amazing how they know the songs; word for word, but most of all I enjoyed taking pictures with fans, signing autograph, and  giving out lots of hugs; the love was there in abundance.

DD: What are you currently working on?

DI: I'm working on my latest release with Kiprich, Hear The Pree". We started to perform it together on stage; this past weekend. I also shot a video for, "Talk It Out" feat. Tiana. That's will be considered the next female anthem! Its about telling the world, say what you want; cause your still gonna stand firm regardless of what they have to say. I also have a new song on Sounique records Igloo riddim.
