My creative path began in 1990 as a writer, and by 1997, I was making waves as an underground rapper. Known for my distinctive voice and lyrical prowess, I’ve often been compared to legends like Lauryn Hill and Lil’ Kim. Yet, my journey has been uniquely mine, shaped by personal struggles and triumphs. Writing has always been my sanctuary, my way of confronting life’s challenges head-on.

 

Through sheer determination, I’ve evolved into a multifaceted entertainer. My debut album, The Bridge: Just a Message, Vol. 1 (2005), was born from a period of personal adversity. Later, in 2017, I released my first novel, Diary: When My Lips Were Sealed, My Heart Spoke, a raw and heartfelt account of resilience. I even produced a soundtrack for the novel in 2022, showcasing my belief that creativity knows no bounds.
