RAISED IN EAST LONDON LT IS A 19 YEARS YOUNG ARTIST DESTINED FOR SUPERSTARDOM. SINCE A YOUNG AGE, SHE HAS PERFORMED AT COUNTLESS SHOWS, ANYWHERE THERE WAS A STAGE, SHE WANTED TO BE ON IT.SHE STARTED WRITING LYRICS AND POETRY , WHICH LATER PROGRESSED TO MCING AND SINGING. AT THE AGE OF 11 SHE JOINED A YOUTH PERFORMING ARTS GROUP CALLED 'LADDERS' WHICH HELPED HER IMPROVE HER MUSIC SKILLS AND WORK WITH OTHER PEOPLE WITH THE SAME INTERESTS. SHE ALSO LEARNT TO ORGANISE MUSIC SHOWS, AS WELL AS HOW TO PUT ON MUSIC WORKSHOPS, AND STUDIO WORK.

EVENTUALLY, AFTER YEARS OF PRACTICAL AND THEORY TRAINING SHE WAS ABLE TO RUN HER OWN SONGWRITING, MCING AND POETRY WORKSHOPS


SHE FIRST STUDIED A LEVEL PERFORMANCE STUDIES WHERE SHE CAME 3RD IN THE COLLEGE'S VERSION OF FAME ACADEMY, BEING THE ONLY MC TO DO SO. SHE IS CURRENTLY DOING A MUSIC VOCAL COURSE AT THE INSTITUTE OF CONTEMPORARY MUSIC PERFORMANCE IN KILBURN, LONDON.


HER ABILITY TO PERFORM HER MUSIC UNLIKE MOST MC'S, ACTUALLY GETTING YOU TO LISTEN TO THE LYRICS IS SOMETHING THAT IS EARNING HER MORE SUPPORTERS EVERYWHERE SHE PERFORMS. "I WRITE ABOUT ANYTHING AND EVERYTHING THAT PASSES MY WAY, I DON'T WANT TO DO A WHOLE TRACK ABOUT BEING BETTER THAN OTHER MC'S I JUST WANT TO DO SOMETHING THAT PEOPLE CAN RELATE TO AND LET THE MUSIC SPEAK FOR ITSELF" EVEN PEOPLE THAT DO NOT LIKE GRIME OR 'URBAN' MUSIC TAKE A SHINE TO HER.


NOT STEMING FROM A MUSICAL FAMILY, SHE IS THE ONLY ONE IN HER FAMILY TO FOCUS ON MUSIC " I AM FROM A BROKEN HOME, WHERE NONE OF MY FAMILY MEMBERS CAME TO MY SHOWS OR SHOWN ANY SUPPORT, IT IS ONLY NOW, WHEN PEOPLE ARE SAYING THAT IM GOOD THAT THEY ARE STARTING TO TAKE NOTICE. NEVERTHELESS MY FATHER STILL THINKS UN A TALENTLESS RECK" HOW EVER SHE IS NOT LETTING THAT HOLD HER BACK.

"WHEN MOST PEOPLE MEET ME THEY ARE SURPRISED THAT I MC, THEY THINK I'M TOO GIRLY!! AND I CAN SPEAK PROPER-IF I FEEL LIKE IT"
SHE SAYS HER WORST QUALITY IS NEVER BEING ABLE TO RELAX "I'M ALWAYS ON THE GO, I HATE DOING NOTHING, EVEN WHEN I'M IN BED MY MIND IS DOING AN OVERLOAD OF LYRICS, THINGS TO DO TO RAISE MY PROFILE- I'M A MANIAC!"

BESIDES BEING A PERFORMER, LT IS ALSO VERY KEEN TO WRITE FOR OTHER ARTISTS "AS SOON AS I COULD WRITE I WAS WRITING LYRICS. I CAN WRITE MUSIC OF EVERY GENRE, THEY COME TO ME AT RANDOM TIMES- I COULD BE IIN BED, ON THE TOILET OR EVEN ON THE BUS, BUT THAT DOESN'T MEAN THAT THEY ARE ALL RIGHT FOR ME' THE THINGS THAT ALL OF HER SONGS HAVE IN COMMON IS THAT THEY ARE ALL CATCHY "I UNDERSTAND THE IMPORTANCE OF A GREAT CHORUS AS PEOPLE DON'T REMEMBER MOST OF THE VERSES". AS WELL AS BEING AN ARTIST IN HER OWN RIGHT LT'S GOAL IS ALSO TO HELP PRODUCE GREAT SONGS FOR OTHER BIG STARS.

SHE HAS MANY GOALS IN LIFE THAT SHE WANTS TO ACHIEVE BEFORE HER TIME IS DONE, HER MAIN GOAL BEING A MUSIC ARTIST AND BUSINESS WOMAN. "I WANNA HELP PEOPLE, I DON'T SEE THE POINT OF BEING ABLE TO INFLUENCE PEOPLE BUT DOING JACK S*** ABOUT IT- LIKE MADONNA, SHE'S A GREAT ARTIST BUT THERES SO MUCH SHE COULD DO WITH HER STATUS TO HELP PEOPLE BUT SHE'D RATHER BOUNCE AROUND IN HER UNDERWEAR"

LT ADMITS THAT HER MOUTH GETS HER IN A LOT OF TROUBLE BUT SHE INSISTS THAT SHE DOESN'T INSULT PEOPLE, BUT IS JUST HONEST. "IF THE TRUTH INSULTS YOU THEN DO SOMETHINGS ABOUT IT TO MAKE IT FALSE"

WITH THAT KIND OF DETERMINATION AND DRIVE, DO NOT EXPECT HER TO BE JUST ANOTHER BORING ARTIST WITHOUT AN OPINION.
