Who tha hell is Neaj? Neaj(NEE-AHJ) is a name that was thought of by a really good friend of mines(Thanks Sinestro Enigma ♥). It is actually my mothers (R.I.P. ♥ Gwendolyn Jean Caldwell ♥) middle name transposed just a lil' bit. I wanted a name that embodied both the essence of my mother who was also a singer, as well as give me the opportunity to step outside of myself and become a completely different persona. I have been singing and dancing for as long as I can remember. Whether playing a role in the school play, or dancing for my childhood African dance troop, Watoto Wakumba, music has always been a huge part of my life. My parents would wake us up in the middle of the nite to "entertain" their company. Didn't yours? They would give us money for perfoming. The more cheers and claps we got, the more money that flowed our way. Even tho it was 2 a.m, and I had to go to school in the morning, I didn't mind at all. I actually looked forward to it! I know that music, and the art of creating it rules my life. It motivates my spirit and encourages my future. As much as I have tried to deny my calling, music continues to be what drives me most. I now realize that..It's music, or nothing at all. I am influenced by all genres of music. All of the people on my page have inspired me in some way. I respect and admire them for what they have contributed to this industry. Other than that, I am a real chic from tha Chi by way of Oakland California. I was born in Oakland, but Chicago made a shonuff woman outta me. For that reason, I consider myself as having two hometowns. Some say, I have experienced the best of both worlds, and I completely agree. The bay is on a much deserved incline and the midwest, well, you already know Chicago don't make no junk. I have been trying to break into the music industry for quite some time now. It has not been an easy road. Nonetheless, I am still standing, waiting for my moment. I have done background vocals/hooks for different bay area artists, weddings, talent shows, high school graduations(including my own), and funerals. I tried out for American Idol in 04'. I am currently working with a few different bay area producers to hopefully put a few projects together in the near future.
