Emerging from the heart of Akron, Ohio, Jade Kouture is quickly carving out her own lane in the world of hip hop. With a raw, unapologetic sound that blends soulful melodies with hard-hitting bars, Jade has the versatility and passion to connect with listeners on a deep level. But what truly sets her apart is her resilience, drive, and the personal story that fuels her music.
Jade’s musical journey began at a young age—she’s been crafting her art since she was just 10 years old. Over the years, she honed her craft, learning the ropes of songwriting, performing, and building an authentic voice. “My music is very relatable. I speak about the things I go through—life, struggles, love, and loss,” Jade explains. “I want my music to speak to the people who feel like they’re going through it alone.”
Despite the challenges that come with being an independent artist, Jade has accomplished a lot. She’s performed at major events like the Ohio Entertainment Awards and even went on tour, experiences that have only motivated her to push further. “Getting nominated for Best Female Group in Akron was huge for me. It’s a reminder that the work I’m putting in is being seen,” she says with pride. But it’s not just the accolades that drive Jade—it’s her family. “My kids are my biggest motivation. I want to show them that anything is possible, no matter what life throws at you.”
Jade’s authenticity shines through in everything she does, from her collaboration with local producers at High Definition Studio to the way she connects with her fans. “I love to network and make connections,” she shares. “I try to engage with my audience, give them words of encouragement, and let them know they can achieve their dreams too—especially single mothers. If I can do it, they can do it.”
With a new single on the way, “Crome Heart,” which will be featured on her upcoming EP Chrome Hearts, Jade is ready to take the next step in her career. She’s not just an artist—she’s a voice for the underdog, a woman on a mission, and a mother showing the world that perseverance pays off.
