TAMIRA SLADE is a Music Producer from Baltimore, MD. She comes from several generations of painters & singers including her older brother who is the rapper Sir Tizzy. She considers Timbaland the person who introduced her to making beats. From an early age, Tamira could be seen either drawing portraits or making beats on the family computer. Her musical influences are Timbaland, PartyNextDoor, Lauryn Hill, DeVonte Swing, and Mary J. Blige. After being diagnosed with Autism at the age of 18, Tamira continues to find solace in expressing herself through music in hopes to inspire and build a platform for other neurodivergent black girls whose voices would otherwise be overlooked.
