Keora
A diamond in the rough, from Yonkers, New York, Keora grew up with big dreams. Tastemakers view her as, “the new age Aaliyah with a timeless voice like Sade”. Keora is a unique soul with a mission to empower the people by being true to herself, spreading truth and love. This growingly popular artist and model has an interactive and diverse fanbase on her social media platforms. New to the game but ahead of her time, Keora has musically worked alongside a number of established artists and producers that includes Trippie Red, Tyla Yahweh, Vado, Tariq Nasheed, Luis Bordeaux & NonNative, Dru and Benjayne.
Keora is no stranger to hard work and working as a team. At 4 months old she modeled for Hallmark Card Print Series, “Welcome Baby”, dressed in costume as the sun for Baby Looney Toons, supported hands-on and fundraising efforts with the American Cancer Society and Habitat for Humanity, learned African and hip- hop dance along with theatre drama at Youth Theatre Interactions, and started training in boxing at the Yonkers YMCA at the age of 13!
