Biography

edit

At the age of nine, Freeman became inspired when her parents took her to her first concert to watch Tiësto perform.[5] At the age of eleven, she 'begged' her parents to buy her DJ equipments needed for her to start learning.[6] Her father, who owns a roofing and restoration business, taught her the equipment's basics via instruction manuals.[7] She opened a nightclub for children aged nine to fifteen called Elle's House, which is held in a section of an indoor kid's party venue in Woodland, Texas called Pump It Up.[8][9][10][11] During April 2014 her debut single "Starkidz" was released.[12][13]
