SPEAKINGOFKAKES, a talented female hip-hop artist, discovered her passion for performing at an early age. Influenced by artists like Da Brat and Jay-Z, she began writing songs and rapping, with her brother guiding her first steps in the industry.

In 2008, Kakes auditioned for Diddy's Starmaker on MTV, making it to final callbacks. This opportunity led to her vocals being featured on America's Best Dance Crew and a song on the Dance-Off soundtrack.

Transitioning into artist development and production, Kakes worked behind the scenes, focusing on her mental health journey. Joining TuffCrowd Entertainment in 2020, she found a love for theater, earning recognition for her work.

Kakes starred in Nikeisha Andersson's Rap Woman documentary and is preparing to release her debut album, "Arrive in Peace," produced by THX. When not performing, she enjoys spending time with family, friends, and her pets, and is dedicated to supporting young creatives through volunteer work.
