“Writing music makes me happy.” As a child, Baaba J flirted with dreams of joining the army or playing football until she discovered music and filmmaking. She started writing music as an escape from the monotone of daily life until it became too good to keep to herself. Her wonderful blend of soul, pop, rap and alte under the Afro umbrella sets her apart from her peers. She performs in English, Pidgin and Ga, weaving message heavy tales that celebrate individuality, originality and freedom. She wants to show people they “can be unconventional and still achieve their goals.” In 2020, Baaba J released Lumumba Street – a 5 track EP which served as the music community’s official introduction to her brilliance. The project's lead single, Tomboy, whose video she co-directed is a tale of being confident in one’s self and one's choices. She followed it up with Lovin 21, a celebration of her turning 21. She has delivered stellar performances on platforms such as Accra Indie Film Festival, The Crusade & The MiM Life Concert
