Jamaica Moana is a Māori and Samoan rapper, songwriter, performance artist, and storyteller whose work blends bold lyricism, unapologetic queer identity, and the fierce energy of the global ballroom scene. Rooted in her culture and community, Jamaica’s music is a vibrant mix of rap, R&B, and club beats, weaving together narratives of self-determination, heritage, and joy.

Her debut EP BUD & DENI introduces a fearless artistic voice — a project that celebrates resilience, sensuality, and pride, while pushing the boundaries of genre and performance. Known for electrifying live shows that merge music, dance, and performance art, Jamaica has become a commanding presence on stages and in spaces where authenticity and liberation are paramount.

Beyond her music, Jamaica is an influential figure in the Australian ballroom community, using her platform to amplify marginalised voices and create inclusive, affirming spaces for LGBTQIA+ and First Nations communities. Whether performing at a festival, hosting a ball, or in the studio, she radiates a creative force that is both deeply personal and universally resonant.
