Born in Mo’ City TX and raised on Houston’s southeast side, the
pint-size, four-foot eleven inch “Real Life Pin up doll” known as
“Lexxi ” has taken her experiences in life and placed them to rhyme
and verse.
At the age of thirteen Lexxi began performing in local talent shows
with the teen girl group, Basic Style. After the death of band member,
Tristan Johnson, Basic Style was disbanded and Lexxi relocated to
Katy TX. While in Katy, Lexxi joined the James E. Taylor High School
choir and learned to read music and honed her technical music skills. In
2002 Lexxi entered the Houston Omega Psi Phi scholarship and talent
search competition. After winning her local division, Lexxi competed in
the regional competition and placed 6th overall receiving a college
scholarship.
Lexxi then enrolled at the historically black Wiley College where she
entered the Communications program. At Wiley Lexxi began working at the
college radio station, where she was embraced by the East TX party
scene. With hard work and discipline, Lexxi made a name for herself as
one of the prominent female emcees throughout the Ark-La-Tex. In 2006
Lexxi began an internship with 103.7 The Beat in Shreveport, Louisiana
and was taken under the wings of legendary Deejays; Quinn
Echols, Mercedes, Daddy Ro, and Holly Hood Bay Bay of the hit song Aye
Bay Bay. Under their tutelage, Lexxi learned the art of stage presence
and commanding an audience. Lexxi graduated with a Bachelor of Arts
degree and began working and continues to work for rolling
out Magazine, which she credits with teaching her the art of branding
yourself as an artist.
In 2011 Lexxi teamed up with Propayne James, Jafunmi Entertainment and
Support Street Music to bring “Lexxi Presents: The Music & Madness
Mixtape”, which helped to foster the rising Itunes hit “Mile High
Club” and the underground song of the summer “Throw My Money on Tha
Flow”.
With a recent feature on TroubleSum “Houston’s First Lady of Hip
Hop” debut single “SWAG” Lexxi is riding the underground wave of
success making her presence and name known and felt in the male
dominated industry. The not yet released “SWAG” has the streets
buzzing with its placement on DJ Godie “I got Next” Volume 2 Mixtape
and Uncle Suede’s “Underground Allstars” OT addition Mixtape.
Lexxi is truly the hot new female artist to watch coming out of Houston
and with hits like these you can’t deny that this
singer/rapper/songwriter is in a new refreshing league of her own.
