S6E60 -Detroit's First Lady of House: DJ Stacey Hotwaxx Hale's Journey from Sears to Legend
Detroit is Different episode 390
From humble beginnings at a Detroit club (now a laundromat) on Livernois and McNichols, DJ Stacey Hotwaxx Hale emerged as Detroit's first female house music artist, guided by her engineering background and inspired by her mother's groundbreaking work in federal government contracting in the 1970s. Known as the Godmother of House Music, Hale's masterful ability to play the right song at the right time has taken her from underground dance clubs like Studio 54 and The Warehouse to prestigious venues, including the Apollo Theater and Fox Detroit, where she continues to blend dance floor hits with orchestral melodies and live music, cementing her legacy in American music culture.
