Wande, born Yewande Isola, is a budding Hip Hop artist dynamic performer, Austin, TX native that is here to inspire. Using her infectious rap skills and personality, she accomplished an impressive 11-song release cycle in 2018 that featured a mix of features and original songs, earning her a Rapzilla,com Freshman nod for 2018, and launching her rap career. The momentum culminated in her being offered a recording contract offer from Reach Records where she worked as an A&R administrator and would become the first woman artist in the label’s 16 year legacy. “It was fulfilling knowing my work didn’t go unnoticed, given how much effort I put in,” said Wande.
On the question of gender, many would view working as a woman in the male-dominated Hip-Hop industry as a disadvantage. Wande has a different take. She instead sees this imbalance as an opportunity to empower women to be bold and pursue their goals. Offering her thoughts on the systemic gender-based inequalities, biases, and expectations in the genre she says, “I won’t let other’s expectations determine my future or what I’m capable of achieving.” “To me, it’s about doing what I’m called to do. I’m just going to focus on that.”
Authenticity is another theme that flows through Wande’s work. From her music to her style, the Nigerian-born Texas-raised rapstress does not shy away from showcasing the beauty and richness of her culture. “I realize there’s power in my name so rather than trying to Americanize it, I fully embrace that part of my identity,” Wande says. With a wide range of stylistic capability, and cultural richness to draw from one thing is certain; Wande is poised to become a uniquely uplifting and unstoppable force.
