Originally from Las Vegas but now based in Tampa, Florida, Empriss—professionally known as Zadii Babii—is carving out her space in the worlds of R&B, soul, and hip-hop. Vegas, a city built on dreams, bright lights, and bold personalities, set the stage for Zadii’s own creative journey. Music wasn’t something she discovered in a studio—it was part of her from childhood. Even as a little girl, she was writing songs and singing freely, turning raw emotion into sound long before realizing music would become her calling. Over time, that natural creativity evolved into focus, discipline, and a dedicated commitment to her craft.
Drawing inspiration from the star power of Chris Brown, the emotional depth of Jazmine Sullivan, and the fearless versatility of Rihanna, Zadii Babii blends smooth vocals with soulful storytelling. Her music sits at the intersection of modern R&B and hip-hop, infused with Caribbean rhythms and Afrobeats—a nod to her roots and global musical influences. The result is a sound that feels intimate, warm, and universally relatable.
While her earliest projects remain unreleased, Zadii considers them the foundation of her artistry. Her latest single, “Better,” showcases her growth, vulnerability, and self-awareness—hallmarks of her creative identity. Currently, she’s developing new music inspired by real-life experiences, proving that honesty remains central to her process.
Unsigned but ambitious, Zadii is open to the right record or distribution partnership. Supported by her family and collaborations like her feature with poet Big Will Bullets, she continues to refine her voice, write her own lyrics, and direct her own visual concepts—fully hands-on with her brand.
Looking ahead, Zadii sees herself still grinding: making music, producing short films, creating content, and performing on major platforms like Spotify and Apple Music. One of her long-term goals is to connect with global audiences by performing in Trinidad, bridging her music with her family’s roots.
