Ethiopian born, Canadian-raised rapper Naya Ali is an award winning rap and hip hop artist . Assertive in her raspy deliveries and exceptional flow, she is quickly noticed for unique vocal tone and ability to move in and out of flow pockets skillfully. In March 2020, she released the first part of a two-album project: Godspeed: Baptism(Prelude), where she broke the ice and proved her potential to contend within the American and international hip hop markets. In 2021, she released the sequel to this opus, Godspeed: Elevated- an earnest body of work showcasing her journey from baptism into the rap game, to her imminent elevation. If the prelude was a humble introduction, this latest chapter testifies that Naya Ali is an artist of exception, power, bravado but more importantly, of vulnerability.
