After enduring a turbulent relationship, AJA found catharsis in songwriting with ‘Mental Breakup’. Relatable lyricism and her signature powerhouse vocals flawlessly depict the damage caused by the toxicity of mixed messages and mind games.

Sharing more, AJA explained: ‘Mental Breakup was inspired by a guy who kept fucking with my emotions and I was so done and broken. I went from being a strong confident person to someone I did not recognise or like. Instead of having a breakdown over it I decided to completely break up with him in my mind even though we weren’t totally together at the time.  The story unfortunately continues and it was just so toxic. It was a tough time, but I learnt so much about myself as a result. No matter how bad it hurts, I wouldn’t have wanted to miss out on love.’

AJA kicked off 2022 with ‘Love At First Song’ back in March. Written as a testament to her love of music, the knock-out single was a certified bop, scooping support from the likes of DORK and Ones To Watch, amassing hundreds of thousands of streams. Since then, AJA has had a big year, releasing four more singles, each building her reputation further as an exciting young artist to watch. Most recent single ‘How Do You Sleep?’ came as a stunning moment bagging support from Spotify playlists including New Music Friday, Young & Free and Obsessed.

Despite only just turning 18-year-old, the Toronto born and bred artist has already made an impact with both music fans and critics. In the short time since she launched, her songwriting has evolved into a strong and inspiring language that is complimented by her unique and impressive vocal prowess.
