Of Australian origin, 27 year old
Daneekah's dj career began in Melbourne, Australia in
summer of 2003. Alongside fellow San Francisco dj Stepwise,
she began tag-teaming at various reggae and dancehall
nights. This immediately led to other gigs, and also
to the beginning of her first weekly Ruff Enuff. This
was soon followed by 2 other weekly residencies in a
country where reggae and dancehall audiences were small
but quickly growing, in true underground style. Daneekah
went on to perform numerous times with well known Melbourne
crews whilst also appearing on Melbourne radio shows
RRR and PBS. In early 2004, she released her first mixtape,
entitled "Dancehall Queens". This reggae
and dancehall mix was 100% female artists, a refreshing
change to a genre almost entirely dominated by men. Big
up the ladeez in reggae music!
