My Story
I am a St.Louis, Missouri native who is currently based in Atlanta, GA. I have been involved in the arts professionally for over 17 years. When I was four years old, I started dancing at COCA and continued my training at Charley's Body Shoppe. My dance training included ballet, tap, jazz, contemporary, hip-hop, African and liturgical.
I started writing music when I was nine, and shortly after started professional voice lessons. I then started performing in church, school choirs, then as a solo singer. I sang in competitions, musicals, and made it to districts with my musical training. At the age of 17, I attended Columbia College Chicago to study Music Business and Dance. One year later, I released my very first single, “On Top”. This single was the first time the world was introduced to "Akilah Jae'".
I graduated with my Bachelors in Music Business in 2017. Since then I have released my debut album, “J’Adore”, EP “Misunderstood” , and my joint EP “One Twenty”. You can find my music on all digital platforms. Stay tuned to this website to see what else I have coming!
