Saliyah
Itoka Singer/songwriter & model from Queens, NY
Stemming
from influences of 90s R&B and admiration for artists
such as Toni Braxton, Mariah Carey, Brandy, and Tamia,
Saliyah Itoka brings a fresh and different vibe to the music
scene and continues to stay authentic. Making a name for herself
in 2018 with her first single, In My Bed, Saliyah
Itoka surfaced on the scene with VII:7, an EP breaking
down what she calls the seven stages of a relationship. From
real life experiences coupled with vulnerable lyrics, the singer/songwriter
isnt shy about being honest in her music.
Fast forward to October 2021, she released her second EP titled,
Virgo, a collection
of music that explores her experiences and emotions encountered
with dealing with a partner of the same sign. This project ushered
in a blend of todays vibes mixed with her own sensuality
on lead single, Issa Vibe, which she seduces listeners
about spending time together.
Enhancing her sound, Saliyah teamed up with local rapper/producer,
Clear Mind, and veteran songwriter-producer, Jae Da Writer,
to create the latest EP, In My Feelings, which debuted
on April 21, 2023, and features singles, Potential
and Get Back. Teaming up with rapper Chaz Money,
she released Get Back Remix which gives the essence
of New York at its core. Currently working on a new project
with the likes of Foster House Studios and Producer M. Smash,
there will be no need for reintroducing Saliyah Itoka to get
you in your feelings and will feature a more mature vulnerability
to relatable experiences.
