From singing her first solo at just three years old to releasing her soul-stirring debut album, Never Give Up, Tamikyo Inez has built a life rooted in faith, resilience, creativity, and purpose.
Born and raised in Memphis, Tennessee, Tamikyo is an inspirational R&B singer-songwriter, visionary entrepreneur, and community builder. With gospel roots and more than a decade of songwriting experience, she transforms real-life experiences into music and messages that encourage people to heal, believe again, and boldly pursue their dreams.
As a mother of six and grandmother of three, Tamikyo understands that success is about more than personal achievement—it is about creating opportunities, strengthening families, and building a legacy that will outlive you.
THE JOURNEY TO NOW
In 2024, Tamikyo released her debut album, Never Give Up. More than a collection of songs, the album reflects her journey through faith, reinvention, second chances, and the determination to keep moving forward—even when life does not unfold as planned.
Her story is filled with courageous new beginnings. She has raised a family, built businesses, created community initiatives, produced meaningful experiences, and continued dreaming through every season of life.
Following the passing of her oldest son, Tyresse, in August 2026, Tamikyo entered one of the most difficult chapters of her life. As she learns to carry grief and purpose together, her commitment to love, faith, family, healing, and legacy continues to shape everything she creates.
Through 12 Disciples Entertainment and 901Dream.com, Tamikyo connects music with education, opportunity, homeownership, financial empowerment, and community impact. Her work includes the #AcceptMeChallenge, the Dream Achievers Creative Collaboratory, Achieve The Dream Homebuyers Education, and the annual All Black Dream Achievers Celebration.
Her mission is clear: to inspire dreamers to believe in what is possible and equip them to turn their dreams into action.
