About Me

Energy, passion, drive, ambition. Flower child, Daughter of the Sun, Butterfly. Regal, refined, loved lady of an exclusive league. Well rounded in academia and artistry, Akua has been singing since she could talk and performing since she could walk. While attaining her degree, Akua pushed her first album, Reach Higher, from her dorm room in Music City, USA. "It attracted national attention, the title track was so empowering, people were motivated and inspired." The Phi Beta Kappa, Magna Cum Laude graduate was a former Fisk Jubilee Singer and last years Miss Fisk University. Now set to release her second project, Akua continues in the entrepreneur spirit, planning to be one of the only lady music moguls. "Artists deserve better, the people want more, it's time for a change." MyWackoSpace Icons Collage MySpace Editor Photo Collage MySpace Backgrounds
