Ethiopian-born, Canadian-raised rapper Naya Ali is an award-winning rap & hip-hop artist who burst onto the scene in 2017 with her first EP Higher Self. Assertive in her raspy deliveries and exceptional flow, she is quickly noticed for her unique vocal tone and ability to move in and out of flow pockets skillfully.
In March 2020, she released the first part of a two-album project, Godspeed: Baptism (Prelude), where she broke the ice and proved her potential to contend within the American and international hip-hop markets.
In 2021, she released the sequel to this opus, Godspeed: Elevated, an earnest body of work showcasing her journey from her baptism into the rap game, into her imminent elevation. This latest project earned her the prestigious English Album of the Year award at the 44th Gala ADISQ in 2022 and the 2022 Rap Album of the Year award at the GAMIQ.
