ABOUT
aminata johnson
I was born on February 19th, 2004 in Washington, D.C. My Mom, Dad, and I moved to The Republic of Congo when I was 3 years old, then to The Gambia; we spent a couple months in Mali. I was very young but I do remember the amazing culture and huge contrast to the way we live in America. My mom and I moved back to D.C., and my Dad stayed in The Gambia because he worked with the government. Following the divorce of my parents, I performed for the first time when I was in 5th grade at my school talent show where I sang “Set Fire To The Rain.” My parents had no idea I could sing like that and from then on we started looking for management and opportunities. In the summer after 6th grade I did a talent showcase in Chicago where I met Tami Knapp-Smith. Later that summer, I recorded two songs and filmed my first music video. The following summer I performed in acting, singing, and modeling in a showcase in Las Vegas. In the spring of 2018 I was an extra in two music videos. I will be starting high school in the fall of 2018 and I plan on continuing acting, singing, and modeling throughout my life. Her mission is to spread God’s love, joy, and truth through the power of music and movies.
