MY MANIFESTO
I’ve never written music for the limelight. For me, music is ritual. It’s transformation.
There’s a sort of alchemy involved in taking an emotion or a memory—even a question—and turning it into sound, transforming raw feeling into substance.
I don’t chase fame. I chase truth.
Seeing a lyric morph from nothing — like a spell, cast with intention, into a melody, into a verse, into a full-body experience… That’s where the magic is. That’s where I live.
🎭 Music is how I speak, my way of understanding the world and my role in it.
The way I create was shaped by my journey through self-mastery. Every one of these songs is a reflection of what I believe:
🔮 There is power in pain. There is clarity in the questions we dare toask. 🔥
Each track I write is a mirror, a spell, an initiation:
✨ The Alchemist—Making pain into purpose, wounds into wisdom.
✨ Far from home—That cosmic longing for something beyond the ordinary.
✨ Breaking These Walls—The naked, raw vulnerability of growth.
This isn’t just what I do. This is who I am.
“Mission Statement
Through my music and stories, I want to empower you to embrace your true self—unapologetically.
🖤 To trust your own energy.
🔥 To stand in your own power.
🌙 To shed fear, doubt, and the need to fit into anyone else’s mold.”

“As emotions surface, we’re left with buttery cadences that gracefully weave us through the intimacy exposed on this record. Uju sheds unique timbres that have her claiming a lane of her own through the creativity that pours onto the sonic canvas of “Freaky at Night.”
“Today’s kids are intelligent, environmentally conscious, and socially sensitive. While they grew up being told what to be, now they want to find their own way and to write their own story, as Uju’s lyrics in “Little Girls Grow” brilliantly put it.”
