Background

Light Skin Keisha was born in Decatur on September 4, 1999, and grew up in Atlanta, Georgia. She finished high school in her hometown, after which she began getting singing lessons. She graduated from the University of Atlanta roughly at that time. Keisha was raised by her mother without the involvement of her father, together with eight siblings — five sisters, and three brothers. She grew up listening to musicians like Lil Jon, Monica, and OutKast. Her mother inspired her to be a singer and cheered her on as she pursued a career in music.

Keisha, like most popular rappers lately, uses social media platforms such as Instagram and YouTube to exhibit her skills. Her musical career began with the release of her debut single, ‘Weather.’ To date, the video has had over 450,000 views. Her ability was evidently recognized across the country, as she was promptly offered an opportunity to sign with L.A. Reid’s Hitco Entertainment. She went on to pursue rapping more seriously after the success of her debut single. ‘Treadmill,’ her following single, was then released. Thus far, the video has gotten over one million views. Her third single, ‘Ride Good,’ became her most notorious piece. Following its release, the song became popular on numerous social media sites. On YouTube, the song has received over 22 million views. She later released her debut album, “That’s Just The Bottom Line.” Blocboy JB was included on one of the seven tracks in the mix.

The album has already received thousands of streams, indicating that it’s well-positioned to succeed. Keisha’s previous clients include Coca Vango and Tokyo Vanity. Keisha’s film debut was in the “Starz spin-off series Power Book: II Ghost,” where she displayed her feisty and racy persona. In terms of her love life, she is said to be romantically linked with Coca Vango himself, a well-known singer-songwriter. In 2018, the couple celebrated each other on their separate Instagram pages. Early this year (2022,) the rapper announced their engagement on her Instagram account.
