About CHIKA

Hailing from Montgomery, Alabama, Chika epitomizes the rising class of artists who refuse to be constrained by social norms of expression or conform to tropes perpetuated by the industry. With a lifelong passion for poetry and music, Chika has often used her music to address topics such as body-positivity, LGBTQ+ expression, reproductive rights, and self-love with clever lyricism and soulful singing. She has been named by Business of Fashion as one of the 500 people shaping the fashion industry in 2019 due to her collaborations writing original poetry and modeling for Calvin Klein. She released an EP of Poetry entitled Full Bloom//A Poetry EP in 2017 and most recently her EP Industry Games in 2020. Chika was also included as a member of XXL Freshman list in 2020. As a woman, a member of the queer community, and a person of color, Chika gives a voice to those who have too often been overlooked by society and offers a compassionate message of self-empowerment and positivity.

KC Ifeanyi from Fast Company writes the following in a March 2020 interview with Chika:

“In an ever-crowded playing field, what she feels she’s bringing to hip-hop is vulnerability.”

Here is what Chika says in the interview about vulnerability in hip-hop:

“Not to shit on the past and be like, ‘No one’s ever done this,’ but the vulnerability, that’s what’s missing,” she says. “We parade and masquerade and talk about all the shit we have. I pride more than my flex. I would much rather talk about my feelings and get them out and help people process theirs.”
