Growing up in Brooklyn, NY of Guyanese descent, hip-hop surrounded her. Her father Nitti remains a subject of rap legend noted for his work behind-the-scenes with the likes of Fabolous, DJ Clue, and the Desert Storm crew. “Being around him made me want to be in that lifestyle,” she admits. Mom played Lil’ Kim for her, while she discovered Nicki on her own and found a balance between “the whole gangsta attitude and girly-girl Barbie vibe.” “I’m a mom, a female rapper, an entrepreneur, a young boss making her way in a male industry, and I’m living my life,” she leaves off. “I want girls to know my story, listen to my music, and realize you could be a mom and still be a bad bitch. I want you to feel good all around. I want equal power within the field. I’m not coming to play, and I’m not stopping. I’m going to keep going.”
