DJ Sophia: Using Her Talent to Give Back to the Community

DJ Sophia is a remarkable rising star in Cape Town, who at just nine years old, has already made a name for herself in the music industry. Not only has she won a DJ competition and landed a resident slot on GoodHope FM, but she is also using her platform to make a positive impact on her community.

A Passion for Music from a Young Age

DJ Sophia’s love for music can be traced back to her father, Ian Petersen, who is also a DJ. She began exploring her father’s equipment at the age of four, and Petersen recognized her innate curiosity and started teaching her the art of DJing. Since then, DJ Sophia’s skills have flourished, and she continues to captivate audiences with her passion for music.

Adapting to the Digital Realm

In the current challenging landscape of the entertainment industry, DJ Sophia has skillfully adapted to the digital realm. She has maintained engagement with her audience through social media, livestreams, and online platforms, where she shares her phenomenal mixes.

Giving Back to the Community

Recently, DJ Sophia faced a personal loss with the passing of her grandfather. His memory continues to motivate her, and to honor him and support the vulnerable members of society, DJ Sophia has organized a blanket drive event.

The event, scheduled for June 24th, will take place at Wraptors Cape Town, and the goal is to collect blankets and non-perishable food items for the elderly, whom she fondly refers to as our “forgotten heroes”. DJ Sophia and her family have chosen the Erica Home as the beneficiary of the collected items.

Using Her Platform for Good

DJ Sophia’s event not only reflects her dedication to her craft, but also highlights her commitment to making a positive impact on her community. As Cape Town’s youngest female DJ, she demonstrates that age is no barrier to talent, passion, or the spirit of giving back.

A Bright Future Ahead

With her unwavering love for music and her genuine concern for the welfare of others, DJ Sophia serves as a shining example for young and old alike. As her career continues to soar, it is evident that this young prodigy has a bright future ahead, both as an entertainer and as a compassionate leader in her community.
