DJ Ms. Eclectic - Exclusive Interview - Thur-July 21, 2022 -4:00PM PST

Texas native, Shantelle “DJ Ms. Eclectic” Thompson
does not follow any one system, instead, selects and
uses the best elements of all, standing in the true
definition of "Eclectic". With her creative stylings, she is
establishing her lane in the Urban Christian Industry
infusing old school and new music, creating an
exhilarating experience whether On Air, DJing or
Emceeing!
With an astounding mother as a classically trained
vocalist and minister of music in her home church in TX,
“Eclectic” grew up listening to soul stirring music from
Gospel, to R&B, Jazz, Hip Hop and Alternative. Through
this exposure, Eclectic started sharing her love for music
as a Lyricist at the young age of 10 and frequently won
talent shows during her teen years.
Eclectic would get her national start in the music industry
after attending Prairie View A&M University, where she
would meet vocalist Yvette “Vet” Hardin through Sigma
Alpha Iota International Music Fraternity for Women and
several years after graduating the two would form the bold, cutting edge urban gospel group F.
R. E. E. (The only Hip Hop Female Duo with a Christian platform). The group afforded Eclectic
and Vet opportunities to open up for many greats including the popular MisFits Tour that
featured DaT.r.u.t.h. and Mali Music and make national TV appearances on platforms to include
Bobby Jones Presents.
Through Eclectic’s tenure in music, she decided to not only be a lyricist but to broaden her
horizon through 2 decks and a mixer. She has been blessed to share the stage with
breakthrough artists like Erica Campbell, Kierra Sheard and Tamar Braxton. She’s also DJ’d
events at the SXSW Music and Media Conferen
