Angie Martinez A voice of New York hip hop radio, Angie Martinez has been one of the most recognized hip hop DJs during her entire tenure at New York City's legendary Hot 97 station. She's interviewed some of hip hop and pop's biggest names, including over the past year, T.I., Drake, Trey Songz and Jeezy.

A 'lost' 2Pac interview even surfaced in the summer of 2010, generating tremendous buzz among fans of the legendary rapper. She also garnered interviews with both Rihanna and Chris Brown shortly following Brown's early statements about his arrest for assault and broke the news in mid-2010 of the long-awaited Dipset reunion. Showcasing her knack for getting the facts on celebrity scandals, Martinez landed a popular interview with Jay-Z where he addresses the ongoing 'Illuminati' rumors that have dogged the rapper over the past year, and also netted a sit-down with Kanye West during his summer resurgence following his seclusion throughout early 2010.

In 2009, Martinez launched the popular Angie Martinez Hair & Beauty Show. The beloved DJ was honored at the 2010 WEEN Awards for her ongoing work as a hip hop DJ and radio personality.
