TOKiMONSTA, also known as Jennifer Lee, is a trailblazing producer and hip-hop artist from Los Angeles who has broken barriers in the notoriously male-dominated genres of electronic music and instrumental hip-hop. Her music style is a unique combination of traditional and non-traditional instruments, field recordings, and samples with a focus on melody and percussion. Collaborations are an essential part of her artistic expression, and she likes to work closely with her collaborators to create expressive and cathartic music.
TOKiMONSTA’s live sets are always a treat, where she takes the audience on a journey through her personal experiences and inspirations with live instruments, vocals, and visuals that complement her signature style and truly unique sound.
Even more impressive than her ability to create music is her perseverance through multiple brain surgeries for Moyamoya, a rare and sometimes fatal brain disease, in which she lost and had to relearn how to comprehend language in order to make music again.
