Meet Alicia Awai, in T&T, they call her Duchess. You can call her that also, not because she is the wife of a duke but because she is one of the highest ranking nobel-women in the rough and tumble, competitive world of deejaying. Yes, as they say, The Duchess rule as the top rated female DJ in T&T and the region. She got to that position by sheer determination and a passion for music, which drew the 30-something year old into the deejaying business as a wet-behind-the-ear 11 years old..
But it didn’t take long for the girl from Diamond Vale a little bedroom community on the north western tip of Port of Spain, to make her mark. Using her unique crowd-pleasing style, Alicia started to win the big awards such as the Fresh Fest Mix Master Champion from as far back as 1987.
She eventually took her engaging style to the airwave first as a fill-in overnighter at Power 102FM then at 98.9FM where she spent several years as a top rated Dj’s/Music Programmers. She is now at Hott 93.5FM
