Brazil." They also quote, "Wherever DJ Rocky B. is playing, you can really
"see" the music, and you feel the party!". Rocky B. was also interviewed

Rocky B's style is Deep and Vocal, Latin to Soulful, Tribalonic undertones,
filled with percussion. She commands the dance floor with every intoxicating
beat, and hypnotizes crowds with her unique style and delivery of pulsating
