A self-proclaimed "old soul," Alexia Jayy has been chasing her dream since she was 2. Inspired by icons such as Whitney Houston, Aretha Franklin and Donny Hathaway, she grew up performing - from her first solo at the Apollo at 5 to recording her own original music as an adult. Alexia's signature, accessory-adorned Afro has become a joyful extension of her personality and artistry. Life hasn't been without challenges, though. A single mother at 21, Alexia balanced raising her son, Matthew, with pursuing music, even writing her first single, "Who Raised You," in his honor. She later welcomed her daughter, Harmony, while continuing to perform, record and build a following online. Supported by her partner, David, and her mother, Michelle, Alexia juggles family, music and faith, proving that perseverance, passion and love can turn obstacles into opportunity.
