Bio

Carmen Lilly Wright, born 30/10/1992 in London, is a singer-songwriter who currently lives in Ireland, part of a family of 7, she has 5 sisters and she lives with her mother and step father.

Music has always been a part of Carmen’s life but she says “Coming from an African upbringing the chances of your parents letting you do music is like the same kind of chances for any artist breaking into the industry”. But despite the lack of support from her parents, Carmen knew that her passion for music is larger than life. Carmen found her passion for music at six while she wrote her own songs and she was part of a kids church choir, with the kids church choir they performed at summer feasts and festivals. From here she knew this is what she wanted to do when she gets older.

At 14 years old, she started recording in a studio, at the time she recorded with a group called “upstars”, she would skip school to go record with the group. At the same time she joined a dance class that was taught by Irelands best dance crew “Raw Edge” from the dance class she joined a dance crew that was called “Immature”. They entered the all Irelands Hip Hop Dance Competition where they won and got to represent Ireland in Germany in the All Worlds Hip Hop Dance Competition. Carmen stopped dancing due to her parents decision about her wanting to dance.

At 15 years old, Carmen was spotted by a record label called “Spitfire” where she recorded a track named “Getting Money” alongside Millionaire Boy “Floss” and Label mate Irish Rapper “Slick Bullet”. The label that Carmen was part of consisted of “Big Sly, Pezzy and Natural B”. The label was short lived after the founder of the label relocated.

In September 2009, Carmen started college where she met music producer “Tunde Esho” with whom she recorded a numerous of songs, and she set up a youtube channel to showcase these songs and a facebook page where the response from the public were good. Later that year Carmen was signed to an independent record label called “Grown Muzik” being under 18 meant she had to wait till she turned 18 to be signed. In 2010 when she turned 18 she was signed alongside then label mate “Natural B”, with the label she performed in a numerous shows and she had been writing numerous of songs. But differences arose between Carmen and the Label which meant she had to leave the label, and she now is an independent artist, currently working on her mixtape named  “Boys Clothes Girly Stuff” with main producer being “Supermariobros” and various of other producers.

Carmen is also involved in other projects such as writing songs for people working in the production side of music and she is also helping artists with vocals. The talent that Carmen poses is unique and people can relate to it, the main goal for Carmen is to tell a story through her music. People all over the globe should be prepared to listen to her story because it starts here.
