DJ Kool Flash has made history once again. The 12-year-old prodigy recently appeared on an episode of Strahan & Sara where she became the first woman featured on GMA Days’ new Women’s History Month series.
During the episode, Kool Flash showed off her impressive turntablist skills and got an unexpected FaceTime call from DJ Spinderella, Salt & Peppa’s DJ and one of Kool Flash’s biggest influences.
“It was like nothing I’ve ever experienced,” Kool Flash tells HipHopDX. “Mr. Strahan, Ms. Sara and the audience were amazing and Spinderella’s surprise was very humbling.”

In the Instagram caption, she elaborated, “Huge Thanks @strahanandsara for the amazing Honor. Much Love to my Big Sis @djspinderella for the Surprise and Amazing message. Most importantly. Mr. Anthony, Mr. Dean and Ms. Julia. You made a Dream of mine come true.”
As part of her set, Kool Flash paid tribute to Salt & Peppa by working “Push It” into her performance as well as the classic, “Heat Wave.”

The young DJ has been tirelessly working at her craft. Last April, she became the youngest female competitor to win the DMC USA Regional Finals in New York City. She was the first black female DMC USA Regional champion and only the second female regional champion ever in the history of the DMC USA National DJ Battles as well.
On Sunday (March 10), Kool Flash got to meet Spinderalla face-to-face in the Big Apple where the Barbie brand was celebrating its 60th anniversary. She captured the moment with an Instagram post.
