Aiyana-Lee

With her powerhouse vocals and contemporary take on classic soul and R&B, British vocalist Aiyana-Lee instantly made an impact with her KSI collaboration "Killa Killa" before releasing her 2022 EP, Wednesday's Child (Side A). Born and raised in London, Aiyana-Lee was always destined to find her place in the music industry: her mother was a multi-platinum singer/songwriter, her uncle was David Ruffin of the Temptations, and her grandfather was the legendary American soul singer Jimmy Ruffin. Struggling through school due to constant bullying, Aiyana-Lee was eventually home-schooled, which allowed her to focus on her music career sooner. In 2015, she moved to Los Angeles with her mother to pursue her career, working her way up in the industry while showcasing her powerhouse vocals. Although she released her debut single, "In My Sin," in 2020, it was her collaboration with KSI on his track "Killa Killa" that propelled her into the spotlight. Snapped up by L.A. Reid and signed to his HITCO label, Aiyana-Lee issued three singles in 2021, before dropping her first EP, Wednesday's Child (Side A), in early 2022. ~ Rich Wilson, Rovi
