I first met Teyana Taylor years ago, when my son and his friends were putting together a pilot and she was one of the artists they interviewed. Even then, she struck me as singular … vibrant, confident, and unapologetically herself. That hasn’t changed. Teyana moves through the world as an artist in every sense. Whether she’s dancing, directing, singing, creating, or simply speaking, there is a depth and honesty that radiates from her. Her work reaches people because it is rooted in truth. You feel it, you recognize yourself in it, and you want to move with her. When Teyana takes the stage, she doesn’t just perform. She ignites!
