Dotty (A.Dot)
Cool, fresh with an edge. Great energy, power and natural charm.
Dotty currently hosts the BBC 1Xtra Breakfast Show (weekdays 7-10am). She is the first solo female to host 1Xtra Breakfast in the station's history.
Under her rap alias 'Amplify Dot', she made British history as the first MC to sign a major album deal in over a decade when she joined the Virgin Records roster in 2012.
She has already collaborated with Busta Rhymes, appeared on stage with Missy Elliott and gained huge popularity as one of the country’s most exciting new radio personalities.
