You never know what Rocsi's going to do next because with every step she takes, something amazing happens!
Though born in Honduras, Rocsi (Racquel Diaz) was raised and shaped in America. Her family moved to the New Orleans area, where Rocsi grew up, moving through her teen years and into her diverse love of music and culture. "My mom used to listen to Air Supply and Sting, and we listened to the music of the N.O., from Master P to jazz and blues. We also got into all of the Latin and Creole music that was around us, too. I was raised on music, period."
From New Orleans, Rocsi and her family moved to Dallas, TX, where she was introduced to southern BBQ, new music and Chick-Fil-A. After grinding her radio (her first love) in Dallas, Rocsi came to the attention of a station in Boston, where she developed her singular radio style and fun-filled on-air personality. Boston was an adventure. "I couldn't even sign my own lease, I was so young. My mom had to sign for me." But Boston was where Rocsi grew, strengthened her interview style (with such superstars as 50 Cent and B2K), and honed her sparkling personality and where she got put on at a whole new level. Chicago came calling soon, and Rocsi ("The Midday Mami," as she was quickly known) was in a major market, winning fans and interviewing some of the hottest artists of the day, from Ludacris ("That's not even an interview. He's like family.") to Baby and Lil Wayne and many others, who had already gotten to know her in Boston. Rocsi was in her own world in Chicago, becoming a well-known personality who was hosting parties, having artists come to town just to be on her show, and feeling like she was at home.
