About B9/D#

B9/D# is B Dom 9 with D# as the lowest note. This is the 1st inversion of the chord — the same notes as B Dom 9 (B, D#, F#, A, C#), but voiced so that D# sits in the bass. Slash chords create a smoother bass line movement and are common in chord progressions where the bass walks stepwise.
