Keiana Parks is a Christian musician and YouTuber who was born June 26, 1985 in North Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. Since childhood, music has always been a big part of Keiana’s life. Growing up, Keiana and her brothers would make up songs and raps while playing “instruments” they found around the house, using utensils and pencils to create a beat. Although she was always drawn to music, she didn’t discover her full passion for it until she wrote a poem – but not just any poem, it was her testimony.
Since then, Keiana has ministered this poem over 100 times in different venues. Feeling God drive her toward music, she went on to write her first EP, “My Testimony.” From there, her first music video, “Love for the Lost,” was featured on Rapzilla, and from then on different acting opportunities, collaborations, radio appearances, and more began to pour in.
Having started out under the name “Lady JTO” which stands for “Jesus Taking Over”, she made the decision to put music out under the name God called her to be from birth – Keiana Parks. More than anything, Keiana’s faith in Christ is what drives her, and she uses music as a tool to help share Christ’s word. Her original poem turned out to be a driving force behind her path in music, and is one she is still on by the grace of God.
