Its official, Tallahassee has its own princess of hip-hop and her name is BayB Kay! The 17 year old female phenom originally from Madison Fla. came out to perform at this week’s TJsDJs Tastemaker Got Talent show and ab-so-lutely shut it down. You could tell the minute she walked on stage that what the crowd was about to witness was going to be something special.
From the minute she came out with what can only be described as a “self-created style,” her energy began to emanate and spread like wildfire.
BayB Kay, who took 1st place at the Tastemakers show on Tuesday, got a chance to perform her soon to be club hit the next night (yes I said it and you heard it here first,) “U Aint Neva Seen” in front of local and national industry personalities.
“Yo this girl is hot” said Jerzee, an M.C who drove down from Valdosta to perform at the talent show and also attended the conference. “I can’t lie, she definitely did her thing,” he said after watching her perform on Wednesday.
“She’s got undeniable talent and swag,” said Mike Shine a panel judge and CEO of Diamond in the Rough Entertainment. I had a chance to sit down and talk with this talented young artist before Wednesday’s summit and you could definitely tell that there was something unique about this performer.
“I’ve been performing since I was 5 and writing and doing shows since 12” BayB Kay said when asked about being the youngest performer at the summit, and still beating out people almost twice her age. “My plan is always to just go out there and do me, you feel me?”
With a demeanor and confidence to match her talent it leaves no question to why Shine of Diamond in the Rough could be seen talking to her managers Big Boi Swag and Dj Magik immediately after the conference.
There is no doubt that the summit, co-sponsored by none other than TJ Chapman was a great networking opportunity for all involved, but no matter who you ask, discovering artists like BayB Kay are what make all the time and energy put into such events worth it.
