LiYAH was born in South Africa and moved to Miami at the age of one because her parent’s wanted her to live the “American Dream”. She has had a rollercoaster ride of a life. Raised by an extraordinarily supportive family, LiYAH’s phenomenal life has seen its’ fair share of ups and downs. From being viciously attacked by a neighborhood dog, tearing apart her face and leaving her in the intensive care unit, to tearing down the stage with LL Cool J at American Airlines Arena, LiYAH remains positive and vibrant. Her diverse upbringing forced her to face and overcome adversities such as a near death experience, reconstructive surgery, and incessant bullying through her school years. Following her dreams despite these difficulties has set the stage for LiYAH to shine like a star and be a ambassador for an entertainment brand that is not only unique, but has a positive flair that is young, fresh, and sexy.
LiYAH’s positive energy and determination ignite her ambitions as a role model and international pop entertainer. Her new single “Radio”, -- produced by Grammy Award winning “Huge Music” -- embodies the energy and youthful spirit that LiYAH radiates as an entertainer. Timing couldn’t be better for her with this upbeat and lively single. Paying respect to the radio with an upbeat sound, catchy hook, and rocking vocals, LiYAH’s new single “Radio” has gotten a great response and is currently in rotation on core market radio stations internationally.
In addition to co-headlining with LL Cool J at a packed American Airline’s Arena in Miami, LiYAH never looked back after feeling the rush of performing live. She has toured internationally with Pitbull, ignited the Power 96 stage at the Calle Ocho Festival and performed alongside Busta Rhymes, Flo Rida, Keri Hilson, Rick Ross and more. LiYAH’s last single, “Raise Em High” has charted in over 48 countries and charted number one internationally. Paving the way for a new age of independent artists, LiYAH and her team are poised to hit the road to promote her new single and continue to spread positivity and love to her ever growing fan base.
