Story & Lesson Highlights with DJ Boosie F Baby of Dallas

DJ Boosie F Baby shared their story and experiences with us recently and you can find our conversation below.

Hi DJ Boosie F Baby, thank you so much for taking time out of your busy day to share your story, experiences and insights with our readers. Let’s jump right in with an interesting one: What is a normal day like for you right now?
A normal day for me now is waking up and immediately doing my chores. From there, I work on music all day. I’m either creating beats mixing songs or studying music in some kind of way and or on phone calls about music.

Can you briefly introduce yourself and share what makes you or your brand unique?
Dillondria “Boosie F Baby” Hargrove is more than a music producer — she’s a creative force redefining what it means to be independent in today’s music industry. As a producer, DJ, and engineer, she’s built a brand ecosystem that fuses sound, style, and empowerment.

Boosie is the visionary behind IRBMB (I’d Rather Be Making BEATZ) — a lifestyle brand that celebrates the grind, passion, and artistry of music creators — and GPT (Girls Produce Too), a movement amplifying the voices and visibility of women in production. Her work stands out for how seamlessly it blends culture, education, and entertainment.

Through her MixHER Room events, Twitch streams, and creative collaborations, Boosie brings people together to create, learn, and connect. Her approach goes beyond music — it’s about energy, confidence, and community. She’s building spaces where women and independent artists can shine on their own terms.

Her story is one of resilience and rhythm — turning ideas into impact, and passion into purpose. As Boosie puts it, “I’m not just making beats; I’m building bridges for the next generation of creators.”

Thanks for sharing that. Would love to go back in time and hear about how your past might have impacted who you are today. What’s a moment that really shaped how you see the world?
The loss of my youngest daughter in 2019 changed everything about how I see the world and my purpose in it. Music became my only outlet — my safe space to feel, to process, and to speak without words. I’ve never been great at expressing my emotions verbally, but through music, I can pour out everything I hold inside.

My daughter and I shared a love for music — we’d dance, DJ, and vibe to everything together. That connection lives on through my work. My producer tag is her voice, which means every beat I make carries a piece of her spirit. It’s my way of keeping her with me and letting the world hear her too.

When did you stop hiding your pain and start using it as power?
In 2021, I decided to stop running from my pain and start transforming it into purpose. That’s when I enrolled at MediaTech University, where I studied audio engineering, music business, music theory, post-production, and live sound. Learning the full anatomy of how a strong song is built — from structure to emotion — gave me a new kind of control.

That experience became the foundation for my healing and my art. It taught me how to turn everything I was feeling into something powerful — how to build sound from silence, and how to create meaning from loss. From there, I began honing my craft and truly stepping into my purpose as a producer.

I think our readers would appreciate hearing more about your values and what you think matters in life and career, etc. So our next question is along those lines. What are the biggest lies your industry tells itself?
One of the biggest lies the music industry tells itself is that you have to look or sound a certain way to make it. Too often, people are boxed in by trends or told to chase what’s “hot” instead of what’s real. The truth is — authenticity always wins. The industry also pushes this idea that women, especially producers, have to prove themselves twice as hard just to be seen.

I’ve learned that your frequency speaks louder than any label or co-sign. If you stay true to your sound, your story, and your purpose, the right people will feel it. What’s missing in the industry isn’t talent — it’s truth. And that’s what I’m here to bring back.

Okay, so before we go, let’s tackle one more area. When do you feel most at peace?
I feel most at peace when I’m in the studio — that’s my sanctuary. Whether I’m creating a beat, engineering a session, or just vibing with my producer friends, that’s when everything slows down and makes sense. Music has always been my safe space, my therapy, and my form of expression.

I also find peace when I’m gaming. It’s another space where I can zone out, have fun, and just be myself without pressure. Between music and gaming, I’ve built my own world — a balance between creativity and calm.
