About FUJI
Fuji Dreskin was born and raised in Denver, Colorado with her parents and older brother and sister.
My family has always called me by my middle name, Fuji or Fujiye, after my maternal grandmother. I spent the last decade living and working in Oakland, CA and recently relocated back to Denver.
"So, what do you rap about?
I think of many of my songs as reminders of who I am, and want to be.
From human and animal rights, to old school anime/manga and hidden history, there's a lot I have to say. Growing up in Colorado and being a hapa who was raised Jewish was a big part of my childhood. As an adult, it feels strange living back in Denver after so long.
More often than not, its just about what Im going through. Life shit, love, family, struggles, physical/mental health, comedy, and there is something about all those TV shows that seem to be a part of us now.
