Bio
In an industry where it is so easy to go with the grain than against it, there was a rebel. "
EVG Rebel is a female artist hailing from the state of New Jersey. Her
love for the arts started early (age 4) and began with the particular
expression of dance. The high expenses of dance classes left her unable
to continue with teaching but never stopped her passion. As she grew
older, she took up playing various instruments such as the saxophone and
the piano. Listening to legends such as Whitney Houston, Bob Marley,
Marvin Gaye, and others as a child helped uncover her secret love early
in life for writing music, which stayed with her all the way through her
young adult years. Gracing stages as a back up dancer for many well
known artists such as Lil Mama and LL Cool J while also being in
numerous videos, music has always played a big role in her lifestyle. It
wasn't until she started secretly posting Youtube videos of her rapping
and singing that people started to take notice of her natural talent
for songwriting and artistry. Becoming a youtube sensation propelled her
into the forefront of many famous artists and producers willing to lend
a hand a work with EVG. "Being a part of this industry teaches me a
lot. You have to have a strong sense of self when being an
artist...ESPECIALLY as a woman! I made a lot of mistakes and created a
lot of misconceptions of how I wanted to be portrayed due to the
pressures of this industry. Being a female there are a lot of standards
that have nothing to do with your true talent. They seem more concerned
with the lipstick that covers your mouth than what actually comes out of
your mouth. I just want to be respected for the complexities of my mind
and the artwork painted by my tongue. I want to celebrate the beauty of
my womanhood in a honorable way and give women everywhere a voice. A
REAL voice. Not one that is actually a male being a ventriloquist with a
female puppet. I want to be able to tell ALL sides of a woman's story. "
