About the Artist: Njeri Earth




Njeri was born in the hometown of Soul music, Detroit, Michigan.
Her love of music was influenced early by her father who was also a
songwriter and musician. Njeri graduated from Cass Technical Highschool in Detroit, Michigan, where she delved further into the science of music as a Vocational Music Major for 4 years, playing flute and percussion in the concert band, singing in the choir, as well as studying piano, which sparked her love for beat making. Njeri also performed in Cass Techâs Performing Arts Guild, learning useful acting skills which will prove themselves useful years later.


The release of Wu Tang Clansman GZA/Geniusâ album, âBeneath the Surfaceâ in June
1999 marked Njeriâs formal introduction into the Hip Hop world. She co-wrote and performed on back to back tracks, â1112" and âVictimâ more than holding her own with veteran rappers.
In August 1999 she performed on the Detroit leg of GZAâs âBeneath the Surfaceâ tour.


Residing off of 8 Mile Rd. In Detroit, it was only fitting that in 2001 Njeri was selected
for a speaking role in the Hip Hop film â8 Mileâ.

Njeri performed her own lyrics, adorned in a 3/4ths length skirt and hair wrap,
as the â3rd Parking Lot Rapperâ in the movieâs âCipherâ scene. Gaining inquisitive fans
world-wide, Njeri attempted to release her first solo album âSupa Sistaâ. The album displayed Njeriâs natural talents, though lacked the push it truly deserved.


Njeri continued recording as well as performing. She has graced audiences with her lyrics
all throughout the Detroit area at venues such as Cobo Hall, St. Andrews Hall, Hart Plaza, the State Theater, the Loading Dock and many others. Njeri Earthâs performance experience includes the Wet Lands in New York as well as several performances at the Harriet Tubman school in Harlem for the Nation of Godâs and Earthâs âShow and Proveâ.
Njeri has also performed and was well received in Atlanta, Indiana, and Canada.


2007 marks a sort of rebirth for Njeri. Sheâs spent the beginning of the year speaking with
and teaching young artists the importance of maintaining a message and keeping originality

in their music. Njeri is also using this year to release her
proudest musical work to date, the album â20-20".
