Yashi Brown is a poetess and singer/songwriter born into the legendary Jackson family. Her book Black Daisy in a White Limousine: 77 Poems, a collection of poems eloquently chronicling life’s triumphs and challenges, was released by Periwinkle Press on Jan. 27, 2011.

Yashi has been blessed with a devoted family. Her parents, Nathaniel Brown and Rebbie Jackson Brown are headed towards their golden wedding anniversary. Her brother, Austin, and sister Stacy are musicians in their own right. Yashi also sang background on Rebbie’s album, “Yours Faithfully” and was introduced on the big screen at the tender age of 5 in her mother’s hit song and music video, “Centipede”.

Realizing how much of a necessity it was as an emotional release, Yashi began taking her poetry very seriously in her early teens. Always staying at the forefront, it would naturally play a key role years to come in her musical journey. For a brief time Yashi and her sister Stacy were signed to their Uncle Michael Jackson’s MJJ recording label under Sony Music. Later, they dissolved their band, but continued as writing partners. More recently in the last 3 years Chicago’s Studio 11 would prove to be a second home for Yashi as a solo artist having recorded many unreleased songs some of which are featured in her 77 poems.
