The name Red Fate came from a Chineese Legend. According to this myth, the gods tie an invisible red string around the ankles of men and women who are destined to be soul mates and will one day marry each other. Red Fate felt like music was her soulmate and a string ties her to it eternally. In her earlier years Red Fate would listen to her father play the trumpet throughout her home. Her mother who would sing to her as a child played a lot of soulful classics that would soon inspire her to become a singer. Her uncle “DC Scorpio”was a known hip hop go-go legend. As the years went by Red Fate's love for music grew into an obsession. At the age of 7 she started singing, songwriting, and rapping. She, her brother (Donny Traxx), and Cousin started a rap group called ATJ. Things didn't work so well with the group so they all decided to be soloist.
