A “305er” for life, DJ Citizen Jane talks about what’s hot in South Florida, the lessons she learned from her mother, and who she’d like to raise from the dead
Where did you grow up? I was born in Miami Beach, but I grew up in Dade County’s finest—Hialeah. Then I moved to Coral Gables, and I lived there for the most part. How long have you lived in South Florida? I’ve lived in South Florida my whole life. I’m one of the few that was born and raised in South Florida, and I still live here. I guess you can say that I’ll be “305” till’ I die. What part of South Florida do you live in? I currently live in Miami, of course. Right near the beach! What do you like most about living here? Aside from it being my hometown—which I’m very proud of—I love the warm weather, the beaches, the women (Miami has the most beautiful women) and being near my family. My family is so important to me. What South Florida venue do you miss that’s gone? Tobacco Road. I performed there a few times when I was singing with my band. Plus, it was such a cool hangout full of musicians and all walks-of-life. Where do you hang out in South Florida, and why? I love Wynwood because it’s a great spot for bar hopping and art galleries. I also love having lunch or dinner on Lincoln Road. It’s a great place to people watch. What DJ or musician do you admire? Lady Gaga, for being her true self, taking risks with her music and for being so unique. And Madonna for always expressing herself and not caring about how people perceive her.
