"I have always been somewhat of a loner and many people have always considered me to be weird or eccentric so I don't have many friends. I grew up in a very good home and wanted for nothing, however, outside of my home I experienced poverty, drugs, alcohol and a lot of negative things that have been the heart and soul of my music today. Many people say I'm an "Old Soul" but I'm just Aja and I always bring real emotion to everything that I sing. To me, my music is a canvas that may never really be as it seems" -Aja
