Today we’d like to introduce you to JungleBaby Deem.
Hi JungleBaby, thanks for sharing your story with us. To start, maybe you can tell our readers some of your backstory.
I started off loving the rhythm and tunes of music; something about that “thump” of it all. I used to close my eyes and imagine it was me coming up with the melodies and lyrics. At around 12 yrs old I started expressing emotions and storytelling on old instrumentals or even over my mom’s old Marvin Gaye tracks. I began to fluently freestyle for years on produced beats from my Bandlab or YouTube. Popularity and exposure came along the way but I was also battling at the then age 14/15 of pill addiction and unlawful ways. I started to turn to music as an escape… From open mic shows to celebrity booked venue opener. I kept striving, getting closer and perfecting my craft after recovering from my addiction. At the ripe age of 25 now I know for sure this path for me will end well, with legacy to be left behind for my children, family, friends and community when that day comes.
We all face challenges, but looking back would you describe it as a relatively smooth road?
It hasn’t been easy at all! I always had and have odds stacked against me. This is me…Truly so I don’t think I’ll ever cower to obstacles. Just me being a masculine lesbian seem to automatically put me in a weird spot with mainly Men dominated industry and city I’m from. It can be rough mentally you just have to lock in.
Appreciate you sharing that. What else should we know about what you do?
Besides music I’m a souse chef and obtaining my CDL Certificate coming spring 2026. So alot of hustlin going on lol
Can you share something surprising about yourself?
