Sophia Lin a.k.a. DJ Hustle-Lin. Model. DeeJay. Gogo.
In her teenage years, Sophia started modeling by working at bikini shows, hair shows, fashion shows at malls, special event and car shows. She was then introduced into DJ'ing by DJ Shaunflo, as she would be his back-up and relief DJ at parties and clubs. "Since I love music just as much that I thought it would be pretty hot to have a girl DJ!,"Sophia smiles. Her original DJ name was 'DJ Sofiyah,' as in hot like fiyah!"
She started "shadow dancing" (behind a screen) at Voodoo Nightclub at Harrah's Casino. Soon Sophia worked as gogo dancer at every club in the Kansas City area. "I'm one of the OG's (original gangsters) of the gogo scene in the Midwest," Sophia says. As she worked in the clubs Sophia realized her old passion to DJ. "So I said wait, I know how to DJ and I love it!" So she revived her DJ career and decided that she needed to change her name up, "…Kinda like how many times Prince and P.Diddy did! So I chose 'DJ Hustle-Lin' because it had my last name 'Lin' and 'Hustle' (like the movie Hustle & Flow)." Club promoters soon hired her to DJ all over from Seattle to Miami up to Canada and down to Las Vegas.
At the same time Sophia also boosted her modeling career with many photoshoots for various publications and features. She got into spokesmodeling at SEMA, Hot Import Nights, and various events around the USA. "It's fun and exhausting at the same time. But its all worth it! Networking, traveling, meeting new people, being in the spotlight and putting a smile on peoples faces....that's what its all about!"
