Who I Am…
I’m Mani Da Brat: artist, creative executive, and a whole creative force. Music has been a part of me for as long as I can remember. I grew up in the church choir, fell in love with R&B, soul, and funk early, so my influences run deep. I pull a lot from my favorite artists like Parliament-Funkadelic, TLC (especially Left Eye), Kendrick Lamar, Prince, and anyone else who made being themselves the blueprint.
I’ve been writing songs since I was a kid, but creativity has never just been one lane for me. I’ve played in fashion, tapped into cosmetics, and I’m always building something. If there’s an idea in my head, I’m going to figure out how to bring it to life— my way. On the business side, I’ve been developing my skills in artist management, executive production, and creative direction, learning how to move not just as an artist, but as a brand and a decision-maker. I like knowing how things work behind the scenes just as much as I love being on them.
My sound? It’s somewhere between nostalgic, a little futuristic, a little chaotic, and very intentional. Tracks like “ComputaLuv” and “SpaceShip” are just the beginning. Right now, I’m stepping into a new era with my debut EP, It Was Until It Wasn’t (April 2026). It’s honest, it’s layered, and it really sounds like what it felt like. I’m just getting started, but I’m not stopping this time. Follow me on Instagram @manidabratttt and watch it all unfold.
