Born in South London to an Irish father and a Bangladeshi mother, Joy Crookes began her musical career by releasing a series of EPs starting in 2017. Her work gained significant traction for its lyrical focus on self-reliance, personal relationships, and the complexities of her multicultural background.
Her artistic output is characterized by a blend of contemporary soul and storytelling, often drawing directly from her lived experiences in London. She frequently incorporates cultural motifs and identity-driven narratives into her songwriting and public performances.
Crookes continues to be recognized within the arts and culture sector, including a notable 2025 engagement at the Tate Modern. Her career trajectory has been marked by critical acclaim, including a nomination for the Rising Star Award at the 2020 Brit Awards.
