North Carolina rapper Tanajah began freestyling in middle school and even studied drums during university. These experiences helped inspire her to chase a rap career full time. Things are paying off — a chance connection with a Danish producer led to signing with record label Blikflak and appearances at festivals abroad. Her latest EP What If Dreams Came True? features positivity anthems (“V.I.B.E.”) alongside horned-up bangers (“Give It To Me”).
