Artist Bio –

Zakiyyah is an artist-activist who utilizes music and visual media to explore themes that centralize marginalized communities via her production company, Black and Bold Productions. As an actress and classically-trained singer who is well-versed in Opera, Hip-Hop, Jazz, and R&B, she employs her extremely versatile skill-set to reach a broad range of audiences and craft a sound that is uniquely her own–including her most well-known, “Hip-Hopera”. She’s had the pleasure of bringing these sounds to numerous audiences from the House of Blues to more recently, the United Nations.
