My name is Ariel Delgado. I was born in Queens, New York on June 28, 1999. I grew up around a family very involved in music which helped deepen the love I have for it today. I began singing at an early age and sang in choir for 10 years. I aspire to create music with a message that promotes self-love, memorable feelings and create a good time for myself and my listeners.    The inspiration for my music comes from past experiences, relationships, trauma, and the experiences of others.  The artist that inspires me and that I find myself relating to is singer/song writer Kehlani Parrish. I use my platform to promote myself and others, as well as spread positivity, music, and educational posts. I want my music uplifts others in spite of the current world we live in today.  My stage name is AhRiel because I wanted to be a little creative and have others pronounce my name the way my parents intended, without having to explain. The spelling does it for them. I am an American Singer, from Bushkill, Pennsylvania. I began my career independently with local releases in 2019, which includes my singles "Lately" and "Secret Escape”.
