As a native of the Southside (Roseland area) of Chicago, Aina BreiYon personifies strength. Her reality is defined by her beliefs; a message that transcends through her music. As the second to youngest of 10 children, self-expression and showing any type of emotion was simply non-existent in their family. She says, I found an outlet with music at the young age of nine. Writing was the only way I knew how to express myself. I am a creator. I dont rap. I dont sing. I create and raise vibrations. When the world sees you one way, they believe thats the only way you should be. I cant be boxed in. The Most High did not put my gift in a box with a pretty little bow on it. When I create, I create from whatever Im feeling at the moment. No rules. No limitations. No image to protect. Thats the only true form of freedom... The freedom to stand in your truth, says Aina BreiYon.
