My Name Is Maraiika Harris, I Am 20 Years Old. I Was Born On June 18th 1994 In Toronto, Ontario. My Background Is Jamaican And Guyanese. Since My Father Passing I Have Been Living With My Mother. I Started Dancing When I Was 3 Years Old Which Lead Me To Enter A Dance Competition With Kids That Were 16 While I Was 6. I Always Loved Dancing But I Fell In Love With Singing When I Was 14. I Did Not Know I Could Actually Sing Until People Around Me Were Stressing How Much I Should Take It Seriously. While Attending St. Edmund Campion Secondary School At 16 I Joined A Club Named ‘midi Club’ We Did A Miniature Music Video And Performed For The Dufferin-peel Faculty. That Year Really Sparked My Drive To Sing And Make My Own Music. Music Has Always Been A Huge Part Of My Life. Music Helped Me Through The Toughest Points In My Life And At The Tender Age Of 15, Many People Began To Tell Me They Loved My Voice And Believed I Could Make It Far As A Singer.
