AJ, the One

This event took place on Saturday, March 19, 2022 at 8:15 PM UTC.

Venue: Sheraton BackYARD Hailing from Inglewood, CA, AJ, the One embodies the city’s cultural duality: raised in the avenues and rooted in the matriarchal powers that hold them afloat. AJ gained global notoriety in 2019 as one of thirty contestants on Netflix’s Rhythm + Flow. AJ showcased herself as a raw lyricist, fashion-forward figure, and bold performance artist with a motive -- and the right melody to pair it with. AJ, the One layers provocative metaphors, radical eroticism, and hood activism to stimulate the physical body, inner spirit, and mental consciousness. During her matriculation through UC Berkeley, AJ presented a TEDx talk on Women in Music: A Reclamation of Sexuality where she cited her own music career as research into the topic.
